Abstract
Alkaline-borosilicate glass of a particular composition was prepared. 30mol%BaO-15CaO-05Al<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf>-40SiO<inf>2</inf>-10B<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf> glass system mix was calcined at different temperatures, from 300°C to 400°C for varying number of hours from 0 to 7 hrs. X Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Thermo Gravimetric Analysis (TGA) studies were conducted on non calcined and calcined powders. Conversion of H<inf>3</inf>BO<inf>3</inf>to B<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf> was observed from XRD studies and increase in thermal stability was confirmed from thermal analysis study. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd.
