Investigation of structural, thermal, and electrical characteristics of zirconium-doped lithium-phosphate glasses.

ABSTRACT: Zirconium-lithium-phosphate glasses were elaborated through the melting-quenching technique. The primary objective of this research is to investigate how the replacement of lithium oxide with zirconium oxide impacts the physical, thermal, mechanical, and electrical properties of the fabricated glasses. The result showed that the vitreous materials were obtained with a ZrO₂ content lower than 1 mol%. Furthermore, it is found that incorporating ZrO₂ in the glassy phosphate framework affects mal compatibility and increases the durability of the glassy samples. Analyzing the mechanical performance reveals that the incorporation of ZrO₂ leads to enhancements in the elastic constants of the glasses, including the longitudinal modulus, shear modulus, Young's modul
