RESUMO

Different alkali glasses have been developed because exhibit a high ionic conductivity and can be used as solid electrolytes in the fabrication of devices such as batteries and chemical sensors. However, a deleterious effect emerges when two alkali ions are present in the same glassy matrix. The phenomenon, named of the mixed alkali effect (MAE), causes a nonlinear variation of certain physical properties, especially for the electrical conductivity, with the emergence of a deep minimum (or maximum, depending of the property under study). The effect was discovered more than 100 years ago and even today its real origin remain unknown. The research gained new impetus due to need to miniaturize and to increase the efficiency of the batteries to answer the demands of new electronic equipment and with the development of computing, especially of the modeling and dynamic molecular softwares. In this work the goal was to produce the borate glass systems 50B2O315PbO(35-x)Li2OxNa2O and 50B2O315PbO(35-x)LiFxNaF and to determine the occurrence and intensity of the MAE, seeking to correlate with the possible change of the local structure. The glasses were produced by melting/modeling method in open atmosphere. The structural characterization was performed using Infrared (IR) and Raman vibrational spectroscopies. The study of the physical properties was carried out by impedance spectroscopy (electrical characterization), differential scanning calorimetry (to get the thermal events) and Archimedes method (to obtain the density).
