Özet:
In this study, the effects of surface dealkalization due to SO2 or SO3 gas treatment of commercial soda lime silica float glass on the weathering behavior was investigated. Only the air side of the glass was studied. The changes in the glass surface were analyzed for their topography and structure. The surface topography was studied using atomic force microscopy (AFM). The findings show the formation of micro-cracks on the surfaces of as-produced glass surfaces when treated with sulfur gas. The weathered surfaces show an increased roughness with increased weathering. The surface structure was investigated using attenuated total reflection-Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy, specular reflectance infrared (SR-IR) spectroscopy, and micro-Raman spectroscopy techniques The results of the studies, ATR-FTIR and SR-IR techniques provided a reasonable insight on the surface structural changes while micro-Raman spectroscopy failed to detects these differences. ATR-FTIR and SR-IR the overall comparison of the effects of peak position with and without sulfur gas treatment suggests a wide scatter within each group. This scatter implies that sulfur gas treatment does not have any statistically significant effects. Also, the change in peak positions are no clear evidence of a decreasing or increasing peak position as the weathering period is increased by weathering effect. Additionally, the calculated penetration depth is found to be ~0,6-1 μm for these techniques. Namely, the penetration depth greater than the surface modification was observed. The results showed was not significantly affected by the surface dealkalization and weathering reactions. The analysis of the surface topography using AFM technique showed the formation of micro-cracks like features on the surfaces of sulfur treated glasses. These features are thought to occur under the sodium sulfate salt residue that is formed during the high temperature dealkalization reactions on the surface. Results sample preparation, i.e. cleaning, was found to have a significant effect on the surface properties. A method has been developed to minimize the effects of sample preparation on the surface of the glass.
