In the present work, seven glass samples have been prepared utilizing melt-quenching method with composition of 40B₂O₃-10SiO₂-10Al₂O₃-30ZnO-10 (Li₂O/Na₂O/K₂O/MgO/CaO/SrO/BaO) all in mol%. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) have characterized for H3 (K₂O...
