The efficiency of the use of IR spectroscopy in studying the structure of magnesium-aluminosilicate glass-ceramic materials was analyzed. It was established that the formation of the structure of these glass-ceramic materials during the heat treatment is associated with a distortion of the cordierite structure. The presence of solid solutions, high and low cordierite in the structure of the materials under study was detected according to the systems of bands F2, E2, C2 and D2, depending on the temperature of their heat treatment. The mechanism of phase formation in magnesium-aluminosilicate glass-ceramic materials has been determined, which consists in the formation of future crystals of -cordierite and spinel at the initial stages of nucleation, and crystals of -cordierite and mullite at the stage of crystallization. Formation of a finely dispersed glass-ceramic structure with a predominant content of -cordierite or mullite under conditions of low-temperature heat treatment is a decisive factor in ensuring high thermal and mechanical properties of glass-ceramic materials. This allows them to be used as structural elements of devices and equipment under thermal and mechanical loads.

Relevance of the development of high-strength glass-ceramic coatings obtained by resource-saving technology for protective elements has been established. Structure formation mechanism in magnesium aluminosilicate glasses during heat treatment has been analyzed. Selection of the system was substantiated, model glasses and glass-ceramic materials on its base have been developed. Patterns of structure regularity and formation of the phase composition of glass-ceramic materials during their ceramization have been investigated. It was established that the presence of crystalline phase of mullite after melting leads to formation of the primary crystals and allows the formation of the fine crystalline structure under conditions of the low-temperature heat treatment at the nucleation stage. Developed high-strength glass ceramic materials can be used as a base in creating protective elements for special-purpose vehicles by energy-saving technology.

In the present work, the Tb3+/Eu3+ co-activated sol-gel glass-ceramic materials (GCs) containing MF3 (M = Y, La) nanocrystals were fabricated during controlled heat-treatment of silicate xerogels at 350 °C. The studies of Tb3+ → Eu3+ energy transfer process (ET) were performed by excitation and emission spectra along with luminescence decay analysis. The co-activated xerogels and GCs exhibit multicolor emission originated from 4fn–4fn optical transitions of Tb3+ (5D4 → 7FJ, J = 6–3) as well as Eu3+ ions (5D0 → 7FJ, J = 0–4). Based on recorded decay curves, it was found that there is a significant prolongation in luminescence lifetimes of the 5D4 (Tb3+) and the 5D0 (Eu3+) levels after the controlled heat-treatment of xerogels. Moreover, for both types of prepared GCs, an increase in ET efficiency was also observed (from ηET ≈ 16% for xerogels up to ηET = 37.3% for SiO2-YF3 GCs and ηET = 60.8% for SiO2-LaF3 GCs). The changes in photoluminescence behavior of rare-earth (RE3+) dopants clearly evidenced their partial segregation inside low-phonon energy fluoride environment. The obtained results suggest that prepared SiO2-MF3:Tb3+, Eu3+ GC materials could be considered for use as optical elements in RGB-lighting optoelectronic devices operating under near-ultraviolet (NUV) excitation.

Based on the analysis of existing mullite-cordierite sitalls, the need to create high-strength materials of this type for individual and local protection against high-speed loads has been determined. They should be characterized by lower cost, due to low-temperature short-term heat treatment using domestic raw materials. An important aspect of ensuring the effective protective effect of an armor-element, in addition to its armor resistance and survivability, is the ability to withstand the effects of open flame and combustible mixtures, which is determined by the thermal properties of the sitalls. The aim of this work is to study the thermal properties, namely thermal expansion coefficient and fire resistance, high strength mullite-cordierite glass-ceramics that they are developed by us earlier. The temperature coefficient of linear expansion was determined using a quartz vertical dilatometer QVD-5A (ASTM C 372-94 (2007)), fire resistance according to GOST 33000—2014. According to X-ray diffraction and differential thermal analyzes, the experimental samples were divided into two groups according to the formation mechanism of structure and phase composition of glass materials during heat treatment. For each of the materials groups, the influence of the chemical and phase compositions on the thermal coefficient of linear expansion of the original mullite-cordierite glass materials and glass-ceramic materials (sitalls) thermally treated using two-stage heat treatment was determined. The study of the fire resistance of the developed glass-ceramic materials made it possible to establish that they withstand the thermal load in a certain mode for 360 minutes. It has been established that providing high thermal- and fire resistance (RE 360 (h)) is a determining factor in the production of hardened glass crystalline materials that are able to resist to thermal destroying at sharp temperature change.

The prospects for use of glass-ceramic materials as electrical products were analyzed. The priority of a self-organized macro- and nanostructure formation of the glass-ceramic materials under conditions of low-temperature heat treatment to ensure their high physical and chemical properties was shown. The choice of an alumina silicate system of materials for obtaining high-strength glass-ceramic materials with improved electrical properties was substantiated, taking into account the aspects of energy saving. The technological modes of cooking, forming and heat treatment of glass-ceramic materials were determined. Resistance, dielectric constant and dielectric loss tangent at 106 Hz were measured using an E6-13A teraometer on a trielectrode system at a temperature of +29 °C and a DE-5000 RLC meter. Electric strength (Em) and cold crushing strength were determined according to GOST 24409-80. Tensile strength according to GOST 32281.1-2013 (EN 1288-1: 2000). The decisive influence on the electrical properties of glass-ceramic materials the crystalline phases of α-cordierite, β-spodumene or lithium disilicate, as well as the residual glass phase composition has been established. The structure influence of the alumina silicate glass-ceramic materials on the provision of their electrical (tgδ∙104 = 70 ÷ 80; ε = 8.0 ÷ 9.3 (at f = 106 Hz); lg ρv = 12.9 ÷ 15.0 (ρv, Ohm·cm at Т = 20 °C) and mechanical (K1C = 3.15 ÷ 4.3 МPа∙м1/2; σ comp = 630 ÷ 700 МPа, σbend = 300 ÷ 350 МPа; KCU = 4.8 ÷ 5.9 kJ/m2) properties. It was found that, the defining condition for the developed glass-ceramic materials use as insulating materials under repeated exposure to high-temperature operations is their high breakdown strength Em = 37 ÷ 42 MV/m and thermal shock resistance due to low TCLE (α∙107 = 21.5 ÷ 31.8 deg-1). The influence of phase composition and structure of the alumina silicate glass-ceramic materials on their electrical and mechanical properties was analyzed. A comparative assessment of the known ceramic and glass-ceramic materials for electrical purposes has made it possible to establish the feasibility of using the developed materials as substrates in the design of a hybrid integrated circuit, vacuum-tight shell and capacitor dielectrics.
