The present invention relates to phosphate glass and a light emitting device in which the phosphate glass is used.
High-intensity light emitting elements such as light emitting diodes (LEDs) have been actively developed in recent years. In a general method of using a light emitting diode as a light emitting element, the light emitting diode is combined with a material with which the light emitting diode is coated to form a device.
As such a coating material, an organic polymer, a silicon resin, or the like is generally used, but from the viewpoints of light resistance, gas permeability, heat resistance, and chemical durability, oxide glass that is easy to mold is the most suitable.
However, ordinary oxide glass is produced with a melting method in which an oxide raw material powder is once heated to 1,000° C. or higher and cooled in order to obtain a uniform melt. Such a high temperature far exceeds the heat-resistant temperature of a light emitting element, and therefore such a high-temperature melting method cannot be used.
Meanwhile, oxide glass having a characteristic of softening at a low temperature is referred to as low melting point glass. Low melting point glass is mainly used for coating and sealing in electronic components, and therefore the working temperature of low melting point glass is approximately 600° C. or lower. However, low melting point glass in which lead is used is conventionally difficult to use as a coating material due to regulation in accordance with Restriction of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment (RoHS).
Therefore, low melting point glass having a composition designed to substitute lead with a plurality of other elements is actively developed by industry-academic-government. Among the developed glass, one alternative candidate is low melting point glass containing bismuth, vanadium, and the like, and this glass has both excellent chemical durability and a low melting point (Patent Documents 1 and 2).
However, in many cases, such glass is colored and is difficult to use as low melting point glass for optical applications as described above.
Therefore, development of inorganic oxide glass having both transparency in a near-ultraviolet to visible region and a softening characteristic at a low temperature is earnestly desired by the industry.
As one composition for such optical applications at low temperatures, oxide glass containing 50 mol % or more of zinc is known (Non-Patent Document 1). Such a composition is known as a lead-free low-melting point frit, and has permeability depending on the composition even in an ultraviolet region. However, the lead-free low-melting point frit is to be manufactured through a plurality of steps, such as a step of adjusting the particle size of a frit produced by melting glass, and the glass is essentially to be melted once at a temperature close to 1,000° C.
Examples of a production method that enables production at a low temperature include a sol-gel method in which a solution is used. However, even in this method, heating to 500° C. or higher is generally to be performed in order to obtain an oxide material.
As an oxide material that can be produced at a low temperature, a glass thin film containing ZnO is known (Patent Document 3, Non-Patent Document 2). Patent Document 3 describes that an amorphous glass thin film containing three components of SnO—ZnO—P2O5 can be formed into a film in the order of micrometer at a low temperature of about 400° C. in a single step by controlling the composition.
A method is also known in which bulk low melting point glass is produced using a zinc compound and phosphoric acid as starting raw materials (Patent Document 4). This glass contains 55 to 90 mol % of P2O5 and 10 to 45 mol % of ZnO in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, and can be produced at 500° C.
However, the glass described in Patent Document 4 has low durability against water, and has a problem of being easily dissolved in water when immersed in water. Patent Document 4 describes that the physical property can be adjusted by adding 0.1 to 5 mol % of another component with respect to two components of P2O5 and ZnO, but improvement in the durability has not been confirmed.
Therefore, according to an embodiment of the present invention, a phosphate glass is provided that has a low melting point and has excellent water resistance while maintaining a glass structure.
Furthermore, according to an embodiment of the present invention, a light emitting device is provided that includes phosphate glass having a low melting point and having excellent water resistance while maintaining a glass structure.

(Configuration 8)
In any one of the configurations 1 to 7, the phosphate glass further includes 0.1 to 9 [mol %] of SiO2.
(Configuration 9)
According to an embodiment of the present invention, the light emitting device includes a light emitting element and a coating material. The light emitting element is coated with the coating material. The coating material includes the phosphate glass in any one of the configurations 1 to 8.
A phosphate glass can be obtained that has a low melting point and has excellent water resistance while maintaining a glass structure.
The phosphate glass PGS according to an embodiment of the present invention includes, in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, 55 to 65 [mol %] of P2O5, 10 to 27 [mol %] of ZnO, 0.5 to 7 [mol %] of R2O3 being at least one of Al2O3, Ga2O3, or Y2O3, 0.5 to 3.5 [mol %] of a lanthanoid oxide L2O3 being at least one of La2O3, Ce2O3, Pr2O3, Nd2O3, Pm2O3, Sm2O3, Eu2O3, Gd2O3, Tb2O3, Dy2O3, Ho2O3, Er2O3, Tm2O3, Yb2O3, or Lu2O3, and 4 to 15 [mol %] of X2O being at least one of Li2O, Na2O, K2O, Rb2O, Cs2O, or Fr2O, and the phosphate glass PGS has a glass transition temperature Tg of lower than 490° C.
The P2O5 and the ZnO are components that form a network of glass (components that stabilize glass). The R2O3 and the L2O3 are components that increase the durability against water (water resistance) and the glass transition temperature Tg. The P2O5 and the X2O are components that decrease the water resistance and the glass transition temperature Tg.
The phosphate glass PGS may have a glass transition temperature Tg of 240° C. or lower. The phosphate glass PGS may have a glass transition temperature Tg of higher than 240° C. and lower than 400° C.
The phosphate glass PGS is characterized in that the glass is stabilized by 55 to 65 [mol %] of P2O5 and 10 to 27 [mol %] of ZnO, and that the water resistance is improved by 0.5 to 7 [mol %] of R2O3 and 0.5 to 3.5 [mol %] of L2O3. That is, the phosphate glass PGS achieves stabilization of the glass and improvement in the water resistance by a balance between the total content of P2O5 and ZnO and the total content of R2O3 and L2O3.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the water resistance of the phosphate glass PGS is evaluated with any one method of the following (1) and (2).
(1) The water resistance is evaluated using a measurement result of the mass loss rate ΔW of the phosphate glass immersed in water having a pH of 7 (room temperature) for 360 minutes.
(2) The water resistance is evaluated using a measurement result of the mass loss rate ΔW of the phosphate glass immersed in water having a pH of 7 (70° C.) for 180 minutes.
In both the methods (1) and (2), a smaller value of the loss rate ΔW indicates more excellent water resistance. In the case of evaluating the water resistance with the method (1), the water resistance is determined to be excellent when the loss rate ΔW is smaller than 30 [%], and in the case of evaluating the water resistance with the method (2), the water resistance is determined to be excellent when the loss rate ΔW is smaller than 0.6 [%].
From the viewpoint of the loss rate ΔW, the phosphate glass PGS more preferably includes 55.8 to 63.0 [mol %] of P2O5, 1.0 to 7.0 [mol %] of R2O3, and 1.0 to 3.5 [mol %] of L2O3, and still more preferably includes 1.0 to 6.1 [mol %] of R2O3 and 1.0 to 3.0 [mol %] of L2O3. From the viewpoint of the glass transition temperature Tg, the phosphate glass PGS more preferably includes 0.7 to 4.9 [mol %] of R2O3, and still more preferably includes 0.7 to 3.5 [mol %] of R2O3 and 0.7 to 3.0 [mol %] of L2O3. In consideration of both the loss rate ΔW and the glass transition temperature Tg, the phosphate glass PGS more preferably includes 55.8 to 63.0 [mol %] of P2O5, 1.0 to 4.9 [mol %] of R2O3, and 1.0 to 3.5 [mol %] of L2O3, and still more preferably includes 1.0 to 3.5 [mol %] of R2O3 and 1.0 to 3.0 [mol %] of L2O3.
The phosphate glass PGS may further include, in addition to P2O5, ZnO, R2O3, L2O3, and X2O, 0.001 to 10.0 [mol %] of SnO in terms of mole percentage based on oxides. If the phosphate glass PGS includes 0.001 to 10.0 [mol %] of SnO, the wavelength λTR of the light at the transmission end in the ultraviolet region can be controlled according to the content of SnO while the glass network structure is maintained. More specifically, the wavelength λTR of the light at the transmission end shifts to the long wavelength side in the ultraviolet region as the content of SnO increases, and shifts to the short wavelength side in the ultraviolet region as the content of SnO decreases.
The phosphate glass PGS may include, in addition to P2O5, ZnO, R2O3, L2O3, and X2O, 5 to 12 [mol %] of QO being at least one of BaO, SrO, CaO, or MgO in terms of mole percentage based on oxides. Similarly to X2O, QO is classified as a network modifier in oxide glass, but has a smaller effect of decreasing the glass transition temperature Tg and the water resistance than X2O.
Furthermore, the phosphate glass PGS may include, in addition to P2O5, ZnO, R2O3, L2O3, and X2O, 0.1 to 9 [mol %] of SiO2 in terms of mole percentage based on oxides. If the phosphate glass PGS includes SiO2 as a component, the phosphate glass PGS achieving both stabilization of the glass and the water resistance can be manufactured even when the manufacturing process has an atmosphere including SiO2.
Lanthanoid elements that can be used in an embodiment of the present invention are lanthanum (La), cerium (Ce), praseodymium (Pr), neodymium (Nd), promethium (Pm), samarium (Sm), europium (Eu), gadolinium (Gd), terbium (Tb), dysprosium (Dy), holmium (Ho), erbium (Er), thulium (Tm), ytterbium (Yb), and lutetium (Lu).
Then, the weighed raw materials (any one of H3PO4, (NH4)H2PO4, and (NH4)2HPO4 and any one of ZnO, R(OH)3, L2O3, and an alkali metal phosphate) are mixed to produce a mixture (step S2).
In the case of using H3PO4 as a raw material (“YES” in the step S3), the mixture is heated at 200° C. for a predetermined time (20 to 60 minutes) in the air to produce a precursor liquid (step S4).
In the case of using no H3PO4 as a raw material (“NO” in the step S3), or after the step S4, the precursor liquid is heat-treated at 400° C. for a predetermined time (10 to 60 minutes) (step S5). Then, the precursor liquid is placed in an electric furnace and heated at 500° C. for a predetermined time (10 to 30 minutes and preferably 10 to 20 minutes) to melt the mixture (step S6), and then the mixture is naturally cooled (step S7). In the case of melting the mixture at 800° C., the precursor liquid is placed in an electric furnace and heated at 800° C. for a predetermined time (10 to 30 minutes and preferably 10 to 20 minutes) to melt the mixture (step S6), and then the mixture is naturally cooled (step S7). In the case of melting the mixture at a temperature between 500° C. and 800° C. in the step S6, either the melting method at 500° C. or the melting method at 800° C. described above is used. As a result, the phosphate glass PGS is manufactured. In the case of using a vacuum electric furnace in the step S6, the pressure in the vacuum electric furnace is, for example, 1 kPa to 40 kPa.
As described above, the phosphate glass PGS according to an embodiment of the present invention is manufactured by melting the raw materials at a temperature of 500° C. to 800° C.
In a melt-quenching method as a conventional glass manufacturing method, raw materials are melted at a temperature of 1,000° C. or higher, but in an embodiment of the present invention, the raw materials are melted at a temperature of 500° C. to 800° C. Therefore, in the manufacturing method in an embodiment of the present invention, the temperature is lower than in a conventional glass manufacturing method, and energy used during synthesis can be suppressed. As a result, the environmental load can be reduced.
The coating material 2 is disposed on the light emitting element 1 in contact with the light emitting surface of the light emitting element 1. The coating material 2 includes the phosphate glass PGS.
Hereinafter, the phosphate glass PGS will be described in detail with reference to Examples. Note that the sum of the numerical values of mole percentage may not be 100 [mol %] because the values are significant figures.

In the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-1 to PGS-Comp-14 in Comparative Examples 1 to 14, the content of P2O5 is in the range of 50.0 [mol %] to 62.9 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of ZnO is in the range of 5.5 [mol %] to 50.0 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of Al2O3 is in the range of 0.0 [mol %] to 5.6 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of La2O3 is in the range of 0.0 [mol %] to 5.4 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of K2O is in the range of 0.0 [mol %] to 7.7 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of BaO is in the range of 0.0 [mol %] to 11.8 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, and the content of SnO is in the range of 0.0 [mol %] to 16.5 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides (see Tables 7 to 9).
The phosphate glass PGS-Comp-1 to the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-14 in Comparative Examples 1 to 14 are measurable and have a water resistance of 50.0 [%] to 99.0 [%] or more and a glass transition temperature Tg of 50° C. to 154° C.
The phosphate glass PGS-Comp-1 to the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-11 in Comparative Examples 1 to 11 include neither Al2O3 nor La2O3 as components. The phosphate glass PGS-Comp-12 to the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-14 in Comparative Examples 12 to 14 include both Al2O3 and La2O3 as components, but the water resistance is evaluated to be “NG”, and as the result, no phosphate glass is formed.
The phosphate glass PGS-1 to the phosphate glass PGS-60 in Examples 1 to 60 include both at least one of Al2O3, Ga2O3, or Y2O3 and at least one of La2O3 or Lu2O3 as components.
Therefore, the phosphate glass PGS-1 to the phosphate glass PGS-60 in Examples 1 to 60 have a component composition that differs from those of the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-1 to the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-14 in Comparative Examples 1 to 14.
The phosphate glass PGS-1 to the phosphate glass PGS-9 in Examples 1 to 9 include P2O5, ZnO, Al2O3, La2O3, K2O, and BaO as components (see Tables 1 and 2).
The phosphate glass PGS-Comp-1 in Comparative Example 1 includes P2O5 and ZnO as components, the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-2 and the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-5 in Comparative Examples 2 and 5 include P2O5, ZnO, and BaO as components, the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-3 and the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-4 in Comparative Examples 3 and 4 include P2O5, ZnO, K2O, and BaO as components, the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-6 to the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-8 in Comparative Examples 6 to 8 include P2O5, ZnO, Al2O3, K2O, and BaO as components, and the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-9 to the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-11 in Comparative Examples 9 to 11 include P2O5, ZnO, La2O3, K2O, and BaO as components (see Tables 11 to 13).
The phosphate glass PGS-1 to the phosphate glass PGS-9 in Examples 1 to 9 are significantly superior in water resistance to the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-1 to the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-11 in Comparative Examples 1 to 11. This is considered to be because the phosphate glass PGS-1 to the phosphate glass PGS-9 in Examples 1 to 9 include both Al2O3 and La2O3 as components, whereas the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-1 to the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-11 in Comparative Examples 1 to 11 include neither Al2O3 nor La2O3 as components. Therefore, if both Al2O3 and La2O3 are included as components, the water resistance can be improved.
The phosphate glass PGS-13 to the phosphate glass PGS-17 in Examples 13 to 17 are obtained by adding an SnO component to P2O5, ZnO, Al2O3, La2O3, K2O, and BaO each having a basic content as in the phosphate glass PGS-8 in Example 8. The phosphate glass PGS-13 to the phosphate glass PGS-17 include SnO at a content of 0.001 [mol %], 0.010 [mol %], 0.100 [mol %], 1.000 [mol %], and 9.100 [mol %], respectively, in terms of mole percentage based on oxides (see Tables 2 and 3). The phosphate glass PGS-13 to the phosphate glass PGS-17 have a water resistance of 0.5 [%] or less.
Therefore, If SnO is included at a content of 0.001 [mol %] to 9.100 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the water resistance can be improved.
The phosphate glass PGS-Comp-12 to the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-14 in Comparative Examples 12 to 14 include P2O5, ZnO, Al2O3, La2O3, K2O, BaO, and SnO as components (see Table 13). In the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-12 to the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-14, the water resistance is evaluated to be NG, and the glass transition temperature Tg is unmeasurable. This is considered to be because SnO is included at a very large content of 11.6 [mol %] to 16.5 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides.
Therefore, If the content of SnO is set in the range of 0.001 [mol %] to 9.100 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the phosphate glass PGS-13 to the phosphate glass PGS-17 having excellent water resistance can be produced. In Comparative Example 12 in which SnO is included at a content of 11.6 [mol %], no phosphate glass is formed, and thus the content of SnO of 9.1 [mol %] has a critical significance for formation of phosphate glass including SnO as a component.

Therefore, if the content of SnO is increased, the phosphate glass can have a light transmission end at a wavelength shifted to the long wavelength side in the ultraviolet region. That is, in the ultraviolet region, the wavelength at the light transmission end of the phosphate glass PGS can be controlled by the content of SnO.
In the visible light region, all the phosphate glass absorbs no light and has no color. Meanwhile, the transmittance changed from about 50% to more than 90%.

The phosphate glass PGS-8, PGS-18, PGS-21, PGS-24, and PGS-33 in Examples 8, 18, 21, 24, and 33 basically include 62.8 [mol %] of P2O5, 17.4 [mol %] of ZnO, 4.7 [mol %] of K2O, and 9.3 [mol %] of BaO in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, and have a total content of 5.8 [mol %] of two or three components selected from Al2O3, La2O3, Lu2O3, and Ga2O3.
The phosphate glass PGS-8 in Example 8 includes, as components, Al2O3 and La2O3 out of Al2O3, La2O3, Lu2O3, and Ga2O3, the phosphate glass PGS-18 in Example 18 includes, as components, Al2O3, La2O3, and Ga2O3 out of Al2O3, La2O3, Lu2O3, and Ga2O3, the phosphate glass PGS-21 in Example 21 includes, as components, Lu2O3 and Ga2O3 out of Al2O3, La2O3, Lu2O3, and Ga2O3, the phosphate glass PGS-24 in Example 24 includes, as components, La2O3 and Ga2O3 out of Al2O3, La2O3, Lu2O3, and Ga2O3, and the phosphate glass PGS-33 in Example 33 includes, as components, Al2O3 and Lu2O3 out of Al2O3, La2O3, Lu2O3, and Ga2O3.
As the result, La, which has the smallest atomic number among the lanthanoid elements, and Lu, which has the largest atomic number among the lanthanoid elements, are used in the phosphate glass PGS-8, PGS-18, PGS-21, PGS-24, and PGS-33 in Examples 8, 18, 21, 24, and 33, and therefore it is shown that phosphate glass having excellent water resistance can be produced using any of the lanthanoid elements (lanthanum (La), cerium (Ce), praseodymium (Pr), neodymium (Nd), promethium (Pm), samarium (Sm), europium (Eu), gadolinium (Gd), terbium (Tb), dysprosium (Dy), holmium (Ho), erbium (Er), thulium (Tm), ytterbium (Yb), and lutetium (Lu)).
The phosphate glass PGS-8, PGS-18, and PGS-24 in Examples 8, 18, and 24 are phosphate glass in which La2O3 is selected as an oxide of a lanthanoid element L2O3, and at least one of Al2O3 or Ga2O3 is included. The phosphate glass PGS-8 includes Al2O3 out of Al2O3 and Ga2O3, and has a water resistance of 25.0 [%]. The phosphate glass PGS-18 includes both Al2O3 and Ga2O3, and has a water resistance of less than 0.5 [%]. The phosphate glass PGS-24 includes Ga2O3 out of Al2O3 and Ga2O3, and has a water resistance of 4.0 [%].
The phosphate glass PGS-19, PGS-21, and PGS-33 in Examples 19, 21, and 33 are phosphate glass in which Lu2O3 is selected as an oxide of a lanthanoid element L2O3, and at least one of Al2O3 or Ga2O3 is included. The phosphate glass PGS-19 includes both Al2O3 and Ga2O3, and has a water resistance of 0.059 [%]. The phosphate glass PGS-21 includes Ga2O3 out of Al2O3 and Ga2O3, and has a water resistance of 1.0 [%]. The phosphate glass PGS-33 includes Al2O3 out of Al2O3 and Ga2O3, and has a water resistance of less than 0.5 [%].
Therefore, the phosphate glass PGS-8, PGS-18, PGS-19, PGS-21, PGS-24, and PGS-33 in Examples 8, 18, 19, 21, 24, and 33 show that if an oxide of a lanthanoid element L2O3 and at least one of Al2O3 or Ga2O3 are included in addition to the components consisting of P2O5, ZnO, K2O, and BaO, phosphate glass having excellent water resistance can be produced.
The phosphate glass PGS-28 in Example 28 includes, in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, 62.1 [mol %] of P2O5, 22.6 [mol %] of ZnO, 2.8 [mol %] of Al2O3, 1.1 [mol %] of La2O3, 5.6 [mol %] of K2O, and 5.6 [mol %] of CaO. Therefore, the phosphate glass PGS-28 in Example 28 shows that even if BaO in the phosphate glass PGS-1 to PGS-9 in Examples 1 to 9 is replaced with CaO, phosphate glass having excellent water resistance can be produced.
The phosphate glass PGS-29 in Example 29 includes, in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, 59.0 [mol %] of P2O5, 20.0 [mol %] of ZnO, 3.5 [mol %] of Al2O3, 3.0 [mol %] of La2O3, and 14.5 [mol %] of K2O. That is, the phosphate glass PGS-29 includes none of BaO, MgO, and CaO. Therefore, Example 29 shows that BaO, MgO, and CaO are optional components of the phosphate glass PGS produced through melting at 500° C.
The phosphate glass PGS-34, PGS-35, PGS-37, and PGS-38 in Examples 34, 35, 37, and 38 are obtained by adding SiO2 to the phosphate glass PGS including P2O5, ZnO, Al2O3, La2O3, K2O, and BaO. The content of SiO2 is 0.1 [mol %] to 8.5 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides. The phosphate glass PGS-36 in Example 36 is obtained by adding SiO2 to the phosphate glass PGS including P2O5, ZnO, Al2O3, La2O3, and K2O (phosphate glass including none of BaO, MgO, and CaO).
The phosphate glass PGS-34 to the phosphate glass PGS-38 in Examples 34 to 38 have a water resistance of 1.0 [%] or less.
Therefore, Examples 34 to 38 show that the phosphate glass PGS including SiO2 as a component has excellent water resistance.
The phosphate glass PGS-21 in Example 21 has more excellent water resistance than the phosphate glass PGS-22 in Example 22. Therefore, it has been found that in the phosphate glass PGS including Lu2O3, Ga2O3 more contributes to improvement of water resistance than Y2O3.
The phosphate glass PGS-25 in Example 25 has more excellent water resistance than the phosphate glass PGS-24 in Example 24. Therefore, it has been found that in the phosphate glass PGS including La2O3, Y2O3 more contributes to improvement of water resistance than Ga2O3.
The phosphate glass PGS-26 in Example 26 has more excellent water resistance than the phosphate glass PGS-27 in Example 27. Therefore, it has been found that in the phosphate glass PGS including Ga2O3 and Y2O3, La2O3 more contributes to improvement of water resistance than Lu2O3.
The phosphate glass PGS-26 and the phosphate glass PGS-27 in Examples 26 and 27 have more excellent water resistance than the phosphate glass PGS-24 in Example 24. Therefore, Examples 26 and 27 show that in the phosphate glass including La2O3 or Lu2O3 as an oxide of a lanthanoid element L2O3, inclusion of both Ga2O3 and Y2O3 can more contribute to improvement of water resistance than inclusion of only Ga2O3.
The phosphate glass PGS-26 has more excellent water resistance than the phosphate glass PGS-27, and therefore in a case where both Ga2O3 and Y2O3 are included as components, inclusion of La2O3 can more improve water resistance than inclusion of Lu2O3.
Table 26 shows the components and the water resistance of the phosphate glass PGS-1 to PGS-9, PGS-11, PGS-12, PGS-20 to PGS-22, PGS-26, and PGS-27 in Examples 1 to 9, 11, 12, 20 to 22, 26, and 27.

The phosphate glass PGS-1 to the phosphate glass PGS-9 include only Al2O3 out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3. The phosphate glass PGS-21 includes only Ga2O3 out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3. The phosphate glass PGS-22 includes only Y2O3 out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3.

The phosphate glass PGS-11 has a water resistance of 0.058 [%]. The phosphate glass PGS-19 has a water resistance of 0.059 [%]. The phosphate glass PGS-26 has a water resistance of 0.022 [%], and the phosphate glass PGS-27 has a water resistance of 0.129 [%].
The phosphate glass PGS-12 and the phosphate glass PGS-20 include Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3. The phosphate glass PGS-12 has a water resistance of 0.028 [%], and the phosphate glass PGS-20 has a water resistance of 0.105 [%].
The phosphate glass PGS-1 to PGS-9 in Examples 1 to 9, the phosphate glass PGS-11 and PGS-26 in Examples 11 and 26, and the phosphate glass PGS-12 in Example 12 include La2O3 in common, and the phosphate glass in the above-described three groups respectively include one component, two components, and three components out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3. In the phosphate glass including La2O3, the phosphate glass PGS-11 and the phosphate glass PGS-26 that include two components out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3 have more excellent water resistance than the phosphate glass PGS-1 to the phosphate glass PGS-9 that include one component out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3. In the phosphate glass including La2O3, the phosphate glass PGS-12 including three components out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3 has more excellent water resistance than the phosphate glass PGS-11 including two components out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3. The phosphate glass PGS-12 has almost the same water resistance as the phosphate glass PGS-26 including two components out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3.
The phosphate glass PGS-21 and PGS-22 in Examples 21 and 22, the phosphate glass PGS-19 and PGS-27 in Examples 19 and 27, and the phosphate glass PGS-20 in Example 20 include Lu2O3 in common, and the phosphate glass in the above-described three groups respectively include one component, two components, and three components out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3. In the phosphate glass including Lu2O3, the phosphate glass PGS-19 and the phosphate glass PGS-27 that include two components out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3 have more excellent water resistance than the phosphate glass PGS-21 and the phosphate glass PGS-22 that include one component out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3. In the phosphate glass including La2O3, the phosphate glass PGS-20 including three components out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3 has more excellent water resistance than the phosphate glass PGS-27 including two components out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3. The phosphate glass PGS-20 has lower water resistance than the phosphate glass PGS-19 including two components out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3, but the phosphate glass PGS-20 has more excellent water resistance than the phosphate glass PGS-21 and the phosphate glass PGS-22 that include one component out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3.
Therefore, it has been found that the phosphate glass including La2O3 or Lu2O3 can have improved water resistance by including two or more components out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3.
Furthermore, it has been found that in the phosphate glass PGS-12 and the phosphate glass PGS-20 that include three components of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3, inclusion of La2O3 can more contribute to improvement of water resistance than inclusion of Lu2O3.
In the phosphate glass PGS-1 to PGS-9, PGS-11, PGS-12, PGS-20 to PGS-22, PGS-26, and PGS-27 in Examples 1 to 9, 11, 12, 20 to 22, 26, and 27, La, which has the smallest atomic number among the lanthanoid elements, and Lu, which has the largest atomic number among the lanthanoid elements, are used, and therefore it is shown that the phosphate glass can have improved water resistance by including two or more components out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3 using any of the lanthanoid elements (lanthanum (La), cerium (Ce), praseodymium (Pr), neodymium (Nd), promethium (Pm), samarium (Sm), europium (Eu), gadolinium (Gd), terbium (Tb), dysprosium (Dy), holmium (Ho), erbium (Er), thulium (Tm), ytterbium (Yb), and lutetium (Lu)). Therefore, the phosphate glass PGS produced through melting at 500° C. preferably includes two or more components out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3.
The phosphate glass PGS-29 to the phosphate glass PGS-31 in Examples 29 to 31 include P2O5, ZnO, Al2O3, and La2O3 in common, and include any one of Li2O, Na2O, and K2O.
In the phosphate glass PGS-29 to PGS-31, the phosphate glass PGS-31 has the highest water resistance, the phosphate glass PGS-29 has the second highest water resistance, and the phosphate glass PGS-30 has the lowest water resistance. Therefore, it has been found that among Li2O, Na2O, and K2O, Na2O most contributes to improvement of water resistance.
The phosphate glass PGS-32 including Na2O and K2O has higher water resistance than the phosphate glass PGS-29 to PGS-31 by about one order of magnitude. Therefore, it has been found that the phosphate glass PGS can have further improved water resistance by including two components of Na2O and K2O.
In the phosphate glass PGS-61 to PGS-125 in Examples 61 to 125, the content of P2O5 is in the range of 55.8 [mol %] to 63.0 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of ZnO is in the range of 11.7 [mol %] to 25.5 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of Al2O3 is in the range of 0.0 [mol %] to 6.1 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of La2O3 is in the range of 0.0 [mol %] to 3.0 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of Lu2O3 is in the range of 0.0 [mol %] to 3.0 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of Ga2O3 is in the range of 0 [mol %] to 2.9 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of Li2O is in the range of 0.0 [mol %] to 12.0 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of Na2O is in the range of 0.0 [mol %] to 12.0 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of K2O is in the range of 0.0 [mol %] to 14.5 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of BaO is in the range of 0.0 [mol %] to 10.1 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of MgO is in the range of 0.0 [mol %] to 6.5 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of CaO is in the range of 0.0 [mol %] to 8.0 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of SrO is in the range of 0.0 [mol %] to 5.7 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of Y2O3 is in the range of 0.0 [mol %] to 2.7 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of SiO2 is in the range of 0.0 [mol %] to 8.5 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of SnO is in the range of 0.0 [mol %] to 9.1 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of Cu2O is in the range of 0.0 [mol %] to 1.0 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of Ag2O is in the range of 0.0 [mol %] to 1.0 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, and the content of MnO is in the range of 0.0 [mol %] to 1.0 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides (see Tables 14 to 23).
The phosphate glass PGS-61 to the phosphate glass PGS-125 in Examples 61 to 125 have a water resistance of 0.005 [%] to 0.587 [%] and a glass transition temperature Tg of 258° C. to 393° C.
In the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-15 to PGS-Comp-23 in Comparative Examples 15 to 23, the content of P2O5 is in the range of 54.0 [mol %] to 75.5 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of ZnO is in the range of 4.4 [mol %] to 32.0 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of Al2O3 is in the range of 0.9 [mol %] to 5.5 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of La2O3 is in the range of 0.0 [mol %] to 9.8 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of K2O is in the range of 0.0 [mol %] to 18.5 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, and the content of BaO is in the range of 0 [mol %] to 10.8 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides (see Tables 24 and 25).
Among the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-15 to PGS-Comp-25 in Comparative Examples 15 to 23, measurable phosphate glass has a water resistance of 1.021 [%] to 18.528 [%] and a glass transition temperature Tg of 238° C. to 285° C.
The phosphate glass PGS-Comp-15, the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-17, and the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-22 in Comparative Examples 15, 17, and 22 include neither Al2O3 nor La2O3 as components. In the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-16, PGS-Comp-18, PGS-Comp-19, PGS-Comp-21, and PGS-Comp-23 in Comparative Examples 16, 18, 19, 21, and 23, the water resistance is evaluated to be “NG”, and as the result, no phosphate glass is formed.
The phosphate glass PGS-61 to the phosphate glass PGS-125 in Examples 61 to 125 include an oxide of a lanthanoid element L2O3 and at least one of Al2O3, Ga2O3, or Y2O3 as components.
Therefore, the phosphate glass PGS-61 to the phosphate glass PGS-125 in Examples 61 to 125 have a component composition that differs from those of the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-15 to the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-23 in Comparative Examples 15 to 23.
The phosphate glass PGS-61 to the phosphate glass PGS-70 in Examples 61 to 70 include P2O5, ZnO, Al2O3, La2O3, K2O, and BaO as components. The phosphate glass PGS-61 to the phosphate glass PGS-70 in Examples 61 to 70 have a water resistance of 0.016 [%] to 0.587 [%] (see Tables 14 and 15).
The phosphate glass PGS was formed in Comparative Examples 15, 17, 20, and 22 among Comparative Examples 15 to 23. The phosphate glass PGS-Comp-15, the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-17, and the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-22 in Comparative Examples 15, 17, and 22 include neither Al2O3 nor La2O3 as components. The phosphate glass PGS-Comp-15, the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-17, and the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-22 have a water resistance of 18.528 [%], 2.443 [%], and 1.021 [%], respectively. The phosphate glass PGS-Comp-20 in Comparative Example 20 includes both Al2O3 and La2O3 as components, but the content of La2O3 is less than 1.0 [mol %]. The phosphate glass PGS-Comp-20 has a water resistance of 8.078 [%](see Tables 24 and 25).
As the result, the phosphate glass PGS-61 to the phosphate glass PGS-70 in Examples 61 to 70 have more excellent water resistance than the phosphate glass PGS-Comp-15, PGS-Comp-17, PGS-Comp-20, and PGS-Comp-22 in Comparative Examples 15, 17, 20, and 22. This is because the phosphate glass PGS-61 to the phosphate glass PGS-70 in Examples 61 to 70 include both Al2O3 and La2O3 as components, and because the content of La2O3 is in the range of 1.0 [mol %] to 3.0 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides.
Therefore, if both Al2O3 and La2O3 are included as components and the content of La2O3 is set in the range of 1.0 [mol %] to 3.0 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the water resistance can be improved.
The phosphate glass PGS-74 in Example 74 is obtained by replacing Al2O3 in the phosphate glass PGS-70 in Example 70 with Ga2O3 at the same content. The phosphate glass PGS-78 in Example 78 is obtained by replacing Al2O3 in the phosphate glass PGS-70 in Example 70 with Y2O3 at the same content. The phosphate glass PGS-74 has more excellent water resistance than the phosphate glass PGS-70, and the phosphate glass PGS-78 has a water resistance of less than 0.090 [%].
Therefore, even if Ga2O3 or Y2O3 is included as a component in place of Al2O3, the phosphate glass PGS having excellent water resistance can be obtained. As the result, Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3 constitute the components that improve the water resistance of the phosphate glass PGS.
The phosphate glass PGS-82 in Example 82 is obtained by replacing Al2O3 and La2O3 in the phosphate glass PGS-70 in Example 70 with Ga2O3 and Lu2O3, respectively. As the result, Example 82 shows that the phosphate glass PGS obtained can have excellent water resistance also by including both Ga2O3 and Lu2O3 as components.
The phosphate glass PGS-79 and PGS-81 in Examples 79 and 81 include P2O5, ZnO, K2O, BaO, and Y2O3 in common and include La2O3 or Lu2O3. The phosphate glass PGS-79 has a water resistance of 0.377 [%], and the phosphate glass PGS-81 has a water resistance of 0.323 [%].
Therefore, Examples 79 and 81 show that the phosphate glass PGS including only Y2O3 out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3 can obtain almost the same water resistance whether La2O3 or Lu2O3 is included as a component.
The phosphate glass PGS-70 in Example 70 is obtained by replacing Y2O3 in the phosphate glass PGS-79 in Example 79 with Al2O3, and the phosphate glass PGS-82 in Example 82 is obtained by replacing Y2O3 in the phosphate glass PGS-81 in Example 81 with Ga2O3. That is, the phosphate glass PGS-70 includes P2O5, ZnO, K2O, BaO, La2O3 out of La2O3 and Lu2O3, and Al2O3 out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3, and the phosphate glass PGS-82 includes P2O5, ZnO, K2O, BaO, Lu2O3 out of La2O3 and Lu2O3, and Ga2O3 out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3. Therefore, Examples 70, 79, 81, and 82 show that if phosphate glass including one component out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3 includes one of all lanthanoid oxides from La2O3 to Lu2O3 as a component, the obtained phosphate glass can have excellent water resistance.
The phosphate glass PGS-71 in Example 71 includes two lanthanoid oxides of La2O3 and Lu2O3 as components in addition to the components consisting of P2O5, ZnO, Al2O3, K2O, and BaO. The phosphate glass PGS-71 has almost the same water resistance as the phosphate glass PGS-68 in Example 68 including one component (La2O3) out of La2O3 and Lu2O3. Therefore, Example 71 shows that phosphate glass having excellent water resistance can be obtained also in a case where two of the lanthanoid oxides from La2O3 to Lu2O3 are included as components.
The phosphate glass PGS-75 in Example 75 includes P2O5, ZnO, Al2O3, Lu2O3, Ga2O3, K2O, and BaO as components. The phosphate glass PGS-77 in Example 77 is obtained by replacing Ga2O3 in the phosphate glass PGS-75 with Y2O3 at the same content. The phosphate glass PGS-75 has a water resistance of 0.030 [%], and the phosphate glass PGS-77 has a water resistance of 0.299 [%]. Therefore, it has been found that in the phosphate glass PGS including Lu2O3, inclusion of both Al2O3 and Ga2O3 more contributes to improvement of water resistance than inclusion of both Al2O3 and Y2O3.
The phosphate glass PGS-79 in Example 79 includes P2O5, ZnO, La2O3, K2O, BaO, and Y2O3 as components. The phosphate glass PGS-81 in Example 81 is obtained by replacing La2O3 in the phosphate glass PGS-79 with Lu2O3 at the same content. The phosphate glass PGS-79 and the phosphate glass PGS-81 have almost the same water resistance. As the result, La, which has the smallest atomic number among the lanthanoid elements, and Lu, which has the largest atomic number among the lanthanoid elements, are used in Examples 79 and 81, and therefore it is shown that phosphate glass having excellent water resistance can be obtained using any of the lanthanoid elements (lanthanum (La), cerium (Ce), praseodymium (Pr), neodymium (Nd), promethium (Pm), samarium (Sm), europium (Eu), gadolinium (Gd), terbium (Tb), dysprosium (Dy), holmium (Ho), erbium (Er), thulium (Tm), ytterbium (Yb), and lutetium (Lu)).
The phosphate glass PGS-84 in Example 84 is obtained by replacing Lu2O3 in the phosphate glass PGS-82 in Example 82 with La2O3 at the same content. As the result, Example 84 shows that the phosphate glass PGS having more excellent water resistance can be obtained with a combination of Ga2O3 and La2O3 than with a combination of Ga2O3 and Lu2O3.
The phosphate glass PGS-85 and the phosphate glass PGS-86 in Examples 85 and 86 include Li2O, Na2O, and K2O as components in addition to the components consisting of P2O5, ZnO, Al2O3, La2O3, and BaO. The phosphate glass PGS-85 has a water resistance of less than 0.130 [%], and the phosphate glass PGS-86 has a water resistance of less than 0.050 [%]. As described above, Examples 85 and 86 show that the phosphate glass PGS having excellent water resistance can be obtained even if the oxides of three alkali metals (Li, Na, K) are included.
The phosphate glass PGS-87 in Example 87 includes P2O5, ZnO, Al2O3, La2O3, and Li2O as components, the phosphate glass PGS-88 in Example 88 includes P2O5, ZnO, Al2O3, La2O3, and Na2O as components, and the phosphate glass PGS-89 in Example 89 includes P2O5, ZnO, Al2O3, La2O3, K2O, and Na2O as components. That is, the phosphate glass PGS-87 to the phosphate glass PGS-89 include none of BaO, MgO, and CaO. Therefore, Examples 87 to 89 show that BaO, SrO, MgO, and CaO are optional components of the phosphate glass produced through melting at 800° C.
The phosphate glass PGS-93 in Example 93 includes P2O5, ZnO, Al2O3, La2O3, Ga2O3, and K2O as components. That is, the phosphate glass PGS-93 includes none of BaO, MgO, and CaO. Therefore, Example 93 shows that BaO, SrO, MgO, and CaO are optional components in the phosphate glass PGS including Al2O3 and Ga2O3 out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3.
Furthermore, the phosphate glass PGS-97 in Example 97 includes P2O5, ZnO, Al2O3, La2O3, K2O, and SiO2 as components. That is, the phosphate glass PGS-97 includes none of BaO, SrO, MgO, and CaO. Therefore, Example 97 shows that BaO, MgO, and CaO are optional components in the phosphate glass PGS including SiO2.
The phosphate glass PGS-90 in Example 90 includes CaO as a component in place of BaO in the components consisting of P2O5, ZnO, Al2O3, La2O3, K2O, and BaO. The phosphate glass PGS-90 has a water resistance of less than 0.400 [%]. As described above, Example 90 shows that even if CaO is included as a component in place of BaO, the phosphate glass PGS having excellent water resistance can be obtained.
The phosphate glass PGS-91 in Example 91 includes 9.1 [mol %] of SnO as a component in terms of mole percentage based on oxides in addition to the components consisting of P2O5, ZnO, Al2O3, La2O3, K2O, and BaO. The phosphate glass PGS-91 has a water resistance of less than 0.060 [%]. As described above, Example 91 shows that even if P2O5, ZnO, Al2O3, La2O3, K2O, BaO, and SnO are included as components, the phosphate glass PGS having excellent water resistance can be obtained.
The phosphate glass PGS-91 includes the same components as the phosphate glass PGS-17 in Example 17, and each component is included at the same content as in the phosphate glass PGS-17. Both the phosphate glass PGS-17 and the phosphate glass PGS-91 have a water resistance of less than 0.5 [%]. Therefore, the phosphate glass PGS including an SnO component has the same level of water resistance whether produced at a melting temperature of 500° C. or 800° C. Even in the phosphate glass PGS produced at a melting temperature of 800° C., the content of SnO of 9.1 [mol %] has a critical significance in producing the phosphate glass PGS including SnO.
The phosphate glass PGS-92 in Example 92 includes MgO as a component in place of BaO in the components consisting of P2O5, ZnO, Al2O3, La2O3, K2O, and BaO. The phosphate glass PGS-92 has a water resistance of less than 0.400 [%]. As described above, Example 92 shows that even if MgO is included as a component in place of BaO, the obtained phosphate glass PGS can have excellent water resistance.
The phosphate glass PGS-94 in Example 94 was obtained by reducing the contents of Al2O3 and Ga2O3 in the phosphate glass PGS-93 in Example 93 of 3.5 [mol %] to 1.4 [mol %] and 1.5 [mol %], respectively, and replacing a part of K2O with BaO. The phosphate glass PGS-94 has better water resistance than the phosphate glass PGS-93 by one or more orders of magnitude. As described above, Example 94 shows that the water resistance can be further improved by reducing the contents of Al2O3 and Ga2O3 and replacing K2O with K2O and BaO so that the total content of K2O and BaO is substantially kept at the original content of K2O. That is, Example 94 shows that the phosphate glass PGS can have more improved water resistance by including both K2O and BaO as components than by including K2O simple substance.
The phosphate glass PGS-95, PGS-96, and PGS-98 to PGS-100 in Examples 95, 96, and 98 to 100 are obtained by adding SiO2 as a component to the components consisting of P2O5, ZnO, Al2O3, La2O3, K2O, and BaO. The phosphate glass PGS-97 in Example 97 is obtained by adding SiO2 as a component to the components consisting of P2O5, ZnO, Al2O3, La2O3, and K2O. The phosphate glass PGS-95 to the phosphate glass PGS-100 have a water resistance of less than 0.510 [%].
Therefore, Examples 95 to 100 show that even if SiO2 is included as a component, the obtained phosphate glass PGS can have excellent water resistance. Example 97 shows that the phosphate glass PGS including SiO2 as a component has excellent water resistance even if none of BaO, MgO, and CaO is included. Furthermore, Examples 95 to 100 show that even in a case where SiO2 is present in an environment in which the phosphate glass PGS is produced, and is automatically incorporated into the phosphate glass PGS, the phosphate glass PGS obtained can have excellent water resistance as long as the content of SiO2 is in the range of 0.1 [mol %] to 8.5 [mol %].
Table 27 shows the components and the water resistance of the phosphate glass PGS-61 to PGS-70, PGS-73 to PGS-78, PGS-80, PGS-82, and PGS-83 in Examples 61 to 70, 73 to 78, 80, 82, and 83.
The phosphate glass PGS-61 to PGS-70, PGS-73 to PGS-78, PGS-80, PGS-82, and PGS-83 in Examples 61 to 70, 73 to 78, 80, 82, and 83 include P2O5, ZnO, K2O, BaO, and La2O3 or Lu2O3 in common, and include at least one of Al2O3, Ga2O3, or Y2O3.

The phosphate glass PGS-77 has a water resistance of 0.299 [%]. The phosphate glass PGS-80 has a water resistance of 0.346 [%], and the phosphate glass PGS-83 has a water resistance of 0.537 [%]. The phosphate glass PGS-75 has a water resistance of 0.030 [%].
The phosphate glass PGS-73 and the phosphate glass PGS-76 include Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3. The phosphate glass PGS-73 has a water resistance of 0.542 [%], and the phosphate glass PGS-76 has a water resistance of 0.536 [%].
The phosphate glass PGS-61 to PGS-70, PGS-74, and PGS-78 in Examples 61 to 70, 74, and 78, the phosphate glass PGS-80 in Example 80, and the phosphate glass PGS-73 in Example 73 include La2O3 in common, and the phosphate glass in the above-described three groups respectively include one component, two components, and three components out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3. In the phosphate glass including La2O3, the phosphate glass PGS-61 to PGS-70, PGS-74, and PGS-78 that include one component out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3 have an average water resistance of 0.159 [%]. Therefore, in the phosphate glass including La2O3, the phosphate glass PGS-61 to PGS-70, PGS-74, and PGS-78 that include one component out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3 have more excellent water resistance than the phosphate glass PGS-80 including two components out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3, and the phosphate glass PGS-80 including two components out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3 has more excellent water resistance than the phosphate glass PGS-73 including three components out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3.
The phosphate glass PGS-82 in Examples 82, the phosphate glass PGS-75, PGS-77, and PGS-83 in Examples 75, 77, and 83, and the phosphate glass PGS-76 in Example 76 include Lu2O3 in common, and the phosphate glass in the above-described three groups respectively include one component, two components, and three components out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3. In the phosphate glass including Lu2O3, the phosphate glass PGS-75, PGS-77, and PGS-83 that include two components out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3 have an average water resistance of 0.289 [%]. Therefore, in the phosphate glass including Lu2O3, the phosphate glass PGS-83 including one component out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3 has more excellent water resistance than the phosphate glass PGS-75, PGS-77, and PGS-83 that include two components out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3, and the phosphate glass PGS-75, PGS-77, and PGS-83 that include two components out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3 have more excellent water resistance than the phosphate glass PGS-76 including three components out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3.
As described above, it has been found that in the phosphate glass PGS produced through melting at 800° C., the phosphate glass PGS-61 to 70, PGS-74, PGS-78, and PGS-82 that include one component out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3 have more excellent water resistance than the phosphate glass PGS-75, PGS-77, PGS-80, and PGS-83 that include two components out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3 and the phosphate glass PGS-73 and PGS-76 that include three components out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3, whether La2O3 or Lu2O3 is included as a component.
In the phosphate glass PGS-61 to PGS-70, PGS-73 to PGS-78, PGS-80, PGS-82, and PGS-83 in Examples 61 to 70, 73 to 78, 80, 82, and 83, La, which has the smallest atomic number among the lanthanoid elements, and Lu, which has the largest atomic number among the lanthanoid elements, are used, and therefore it is shown that the phosphate glass can have improved water resistance by including one component out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3 using any of the lanthanoid elements (lanthanum (La), cerium (Ce), praseodymium (Pr), neodymium (Nd), promethium (Pm), samarium (Sm), europium (Eu), gadolinium (Gd), terbium (Tb), dysprosium (Dy), holmium (Ho), erbium (Er), thulium (Tm), ytterbium (Yb), and lutetium (Lu)). Therefore, the phosphate glass PGS produced through melting at 800° C. preferably includes one component out of Al2O3, Ga2O3, and Y2O3.
The phosphate glass PGS-87 to the phosphate glass PGS-89 in Examples 87 to 89 include P2O5, ZnO, Al2O3, and La2O3 in common, and include any of Li2O, Na2O, and two components constituting of Na2O and K2O.
In the phosphate glass PGS-87 to PGS-89, the phosphate glass PGS-88 has the highest water resistance, the phosphate glass PGS-87 has the second highest water resistance, and the phosphate glass PGS-89 has the lowest water resistance. Therefore, it has been found that among Li2O, Na2O, and the two components constituting of Na2O and K2O, Na2O most contributes to improvement of water resistance.
The phosphate glass PGS-61 to PGS-67, PGS-69, PGS-70, PGS-74, PGS-75, PGS-77 to PGS-82, and PGS-84 to PGS-99 in Examples 61 to 67, 69, 70, 74, 75, 77 to 82, and 84 to 99 have a water resistance of less than 0.400. Therefore, the phosphate glass produced through melting at 800° C. preferably includes, in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, P2O5 at a content of 55 to 63 [mol %], ZnO at a content of 12 to 26 [mol %], R2O3 being at least one of Al2O3, Ga2O3, or Y2O3 at a content of 1.0 to 6.1 [mol %], a lanthanoid oxide being at least one of La2O3, Ce2O3, Pr2O3, Nd2O3, Pm2O3, Sm2O3, Eu2O3, Gd2O3, Tb2O3, Dy2O3, Ho2O3, Er2O3, Tm2O3, Yb2O3, or Lu2O3 at a content of 1 to 3 [mol %], X2O being at least one of Li2O, Na2O, K2O, Rb2O, Cs2O, or Fr2O at a content of 4.3 to 14.5 [mol %], and SiO2 at a content of 0.0 to 7 [mol %].
The specific component is [(X2O+P2O5)−(M2O3+SiO2)]. Here, M in M2O3 is any of Al, Ga, Y, and the lanthanoid elements.
As a result of plotting and linearly approximating the relationship between the amount of [(X2O+P2O5)−(M2O3+SiO2)] and the water resistance, a contribution ratio of 0.16 was obtained (see
As a result of plotting and linearly approximating the relationship between the amount of [(X2O+P2O5)−(M2O3+SiO2)] and the glass transition temperature Tg, a contribution ratio of 0.20 was obtained (see
The specific component is [(XO1/2+PO5/2)−(MO3/2+SiO2)]. Here, M in MO3/2 is any of Al, Ga, Y, and the lanthanoid elements.
As a result of plotting and linearly approximating the relationship between the amount of [(XO1/2+PO5/2)−(MO3/2+SiO2)] and the water resistance, a contribution ratio of 0.28 was obtained (see
The correlation in the relationship between the amount of [(XO1/2+PO5/2)−(MO3/2+SiO2)] and the water resistance shown in
Therefore, a better correlation is exhibited between the amount of [(XO1/2+PO5/2)−(MO3/2+SiO2)] in which the content is indicated in terms of mole percentage based on cations and the water resistance.
As a result of plotting and linearly approximating the relationship between the amount of [(XO1/2+PO5/2)−(MO3/2+SiO2)] and the glass transition temperature Tg, a contribution ratio of 0.35 was obtained (see
The correlation in the relationship between the amount of [(XO1/2+PO5/2)−(MO3/2+SiO2)] and the glass transition temperature Tg shown in
Therefore, a better correlation is exhibited between the amount of [(XO1/2+PO5/2)−(MO3/2+SiO2)] in which the content is indicated in terms of mole percentage based on cations and the glass transition temperature Tg.
The relationship between the glass transition temperature Tg and the melting temperature was examined using two component compositions having different contents. Table 28 shows the two component compositions. The content of each component in component compositions 1 and 2 in Table 28 are indicated in terms of mole percentage based on oxides.
As can be seen with reference to
In the phosphate glass PGS produced using each of the component compositions 1 and 2, the glass transition temperature Tg increases as the melting temperature increases (see the curves k1 and k2). Then, it was confirmed that the water resistance was improved as the glass transition temperature Tg increased.
The phosphate glass PGS produced at a melting temperature of 500° C. using the component composition 1 and that produced using the component composition 2, respectively, have glass transition temperatures of 160° C. and 195° C., which are in the range of the glass transition temperature Tg of the phosphate glass PGS-1 to PGS-60 in Examples 1 to 60, that is, in the range of 125° C. to 232° C. The phosphate glass PGS produced at a melting temperature of 800° C. using the component composition 1 and that produced using the component composition 2, respectively, have glass transition temperatures of 310° C. and 322° C., which are in the range of the glass transition temperature Tg of the phosphate glass PGS-61 to PGS-125 in Examples 61 to 125, that is, in the range of 258° C. to 393° C.
Therefore, the phosphate glass PGS produced using each of the component compositions shown in Examples 1 to 125 at a melting temperature in the range of 500° C. to 800° C. is considered to have a glass transition temperature Tg of 393° C. or lower.
The temperature at which the visco ity of glass η is η=107.65 dPa·s (poise) is referred to as the softening point of low melting point glass. The softening point of low melting point glass is 600° C. or lower. Therefore, in
The phosphate glass PGS-1 to the phosphate glass PGS-125 in Examples 1 to 125 described above has a glass transition temperature Tg of lower than 490° C. Therefore, the phosphate glass PGS-1 to the phosphate glass PGS-125 are low melting point glass.
For the phosphate glass in Examples 116 to 125 (in which Cu, Ag, and Mn are added at an amount shown in Table 29 described below),
As can be seen in Examples 1 to 125 described above, the glass transition temperature Tg is lower than 490° C., and in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, the content of P2O5 is 55 to 65 [mol %], the content of ZnO is 10 to 27 [mol %], the content of R2O3 being at least one of Al2O3, Ga2O3, or Y2O3 is 0.7 to 7 [mol %], the content of a lanthanoid oxide L2O3 being at least one of La2O3, Ce2O3, Pr2O3, Nd2O3, Pm2O3, Sm2O3, Eu2O3, Gd2O3, Tb2O3, Dy2O3, Ho2O3, Er2O3, Tm2O3, Yb2O3, or Lu2O3 is 0.7 to 3.5 [mol %], and the content of X2O being at least one of Li2O, Na2O, K2O, Rb2O, Cs2O, or Fr2O is 4.3 to 14.5 [mol %].
Therefore, the phosphate glass PGS according to an embodiment of the present invention has a glass transition temperature of lower than 490° C. and includes, in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, 55 to 65 [mol %] of P2O5, 10 to 27 [mol %] of ZnO, 0.5 to 7 [mol %] of R2O3 being at least one of Al2O3, Ga2O3, or Y2O3, 0.5 to 3.5 [mol %] of L2O3 being at least one of La2O3, Ce2O3, Pr2O3, Nd2O3, Pm2O3, Sm2O3, Eu2O3, Gd2O3, Tb2O3, Dy2O3, Ho2O3, Er2O3, Tm2O3, Yb2O3, or Lu2O3, and 4 to 15 [mol %] of X2O being at least one of Li2O, Na2O, K2O, Rb2O, Cs2O, or Fr2O.
Furthermore, as can be seen in Examples 1 to 125, the content of QO being at least one of BaO, SrO, MgO, or CaO as an optional component is 0 to 11.1 [mol %] in terms of mole percentage based on oxides, and in a case where QO is included, the minimum content is 5.4 [mol %]. Therefore, the phosphate glass PGS according to an embodiment of the present invention preferably includes 5 to 12 [mol %] of QO in terms of mole percentage based on oxides.
The phosphate glass PGS preferably has a glass transition temperature Tg of lower than 400° C.
The phosphate glass PGS is characterized by including P2O5 at a large content of 55 to 65 [mol %]. The content of P2O5 of 55 to 65 [mol %] results in the total content of P2O5 and ZnO of 68 to 85 [mol %].
P2O5 and ZnO mainly contribute to maintenance of the glass structure of the phosphate glass PGS, R2O3 and L2O3 mainly contribute to improvement of the water resistance, and X2O mainly contributes to having a low melting point. As a result, the phosphate glass PGS having a low melting point and excellent water resistance while maintaining a glass structure can be realized by adjusting the contents of P2O5 and ZnO, the contents of R2O3 and L2O3, and the content of X2O in the above-described ranges.
The present invention is applied to phosphate glass and a light emitting device in which the phosphate glass is used.
