Calcium fluoro-aluminosilicate (4.5SiO₂-3Al₂O₃-1.5P₂O₅-3CaO-2CaF₂) glasses have significant applications in the medical and dental fields. However, due to the biological hazard of aluminium in the human body, this study focused on the influence of boron substitution for aluminium on the structure and properties of a series of substituted glasses and their correlated glass-ceramics. The results indicated that by increasing the amount of boron, the density of glasses and their glass-ceramics both decreased, whereas the number of bridging oxygens in the glasses increased. The glass transition temperature and the crystallization temperature remained almost unchanged for the glasses with a boron substitution of less than 25 mol%. Boron formed oxygen bridges in all glasses in the form of BO₃ triangles and BO₄ tetrahedra. Reducing the Al content in glasses, had an effect on the morphology and orientation of the fluorapatite crystal phase formed.

氟铝硅酸钙（4.5SiO ₂ -3Al ₂ O ₃ -1.5P ₂ O ₅ -3CaO-2CaF ₂）眼镜在医疗和牙科领域具有重要的应用。然而，由于铝对人体的生物危害，本研究集中于硼替代铝对一系列取代玻璃及其相关玻璃陶瓷的结构和性能的影响。结果表明，通过增加硼的含量，玻璃及其玻璃-陶瓷的密度均降低，而玻璃中的桥连氧数量增加。对于硼取代度小于25摩尔％的玻璃，玻璃化转变温度和结晶温度几乎保持不变。硼以BO ₃三角形和BO ₄的形式在所有玻璃中形成氧桥四面体。降低玻璃中的Al含量对所形成的氟磷灰石晶体相的形态和取向有影响。
