The concentration distribution of lithium ions in the surface layers of the 27Li2O–73SiO2 (mol %) glass samples subjected and unsubjected to heat treatment under different conditions after exposure to 0.1 M HCl + y M LiCl (y = 0, 1.0, 5.0, and 10) solutions is studied by the HF-sectioning technique. It is found that the specific (“molded”) layer formed on the glass surface upon pouring of a glass melt into a cooled mold affects the leaching processes in both the initial and phase-separated glasses. In the absence of the molded layer, the leaching rate of the initial glass in the acid is lower than that of the phase-separated glass and higher than that of the crystallized glass. The leaching rate of the phase-separated and crystallized samples in the acid with an salt additive is higher than that of the initial salt. Chlorine ions in the acid solution bring about a weakening of the silicon–oxygen network. The profiles of the dissolution rate of glass in a 1% HF solution correlate with the concentration profiles of lithium. |
