- The impact of the cation field strength (CFS) of the glass network-modifier cations on the structure and properties of borosilicate glasses (BS) were examined for a large ensemble of mixed-cation (R/2)M(2)O–(R/2)Na2O–B2O3–KSiO2 glasses with M+ ={Li+, Na+, K+, Rb+} and M2+ ={Mg2+, Ca2+, Sr2+, Ba2+} from four series of {K, R} combinations of K = n(SiO2)/n(B2O3) = {2.0, 4.0} and R =[n(M(2)O) + n(Na2O)]/n(B2O3) = {0.75, 2.1}. Combined with results from La3+ bearing glasses enabled the probing of physical-property variations across a wide CFS range, encompassing the glass transition temperature (Tg), density, molar volume and compactness, as well as the hardness (H) and Young's modulus (E). We discuss the inferred composition–structure/CFS–property relationships. Each of Tg, H, and E revealed a non-linear dependence against the CFS and a strong Tg/H correlation, where each property is maximized for the largest alkaline-earth metal cations, i.e., Sr2+ and Ba2+, along with the high-CFS La3+ species. The 11B MAS NMR-derived fractional BO4 populations decreased linearly with the average Mz+/Na+ CFS within both K–0.75 glass branches, whereas the NBO-rich K–2.1 glasses manifested more complex trends. Comparisons with results from RM2O–B2O3–KSiO2 glasses suggested no significant “mixed alkali effect”.
