摘要

In this study, ZnO–Al2O3–B2O3–SiO2 (ZABS) glass–ceramics were successfully prepared using water-quenching followed by solid-state sintering. The effects of B2O3 contents on the crystallization behavior, sintering characteristics, microstructure, and dielectric properties of glass–ceramics were investigated by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR), X-ray diffractometer (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and network analyzer. The results showed that increasing the B2O3 contents consumes the free oxygen provided by Zn2+ ions in the glass network, converting [BO3] into [BO4] units and enhancing the glass network stability. Simultaneously, the presence of [BO3] units reduces the glass softening point and crystallization activation energy. The dielectric performance of ZABS glass–ceramics depends on the degree of densification and crystallization. Among them, excellent dielectric properties with εr = 5.36 and Q × f = 32,200 GHz were obtained for the samples containing 12 mol% B2O3 sintered at 875 °C/2 h. This suggests potential applications for the ZABS glass–ceramic in the low-temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) field.
