Density of Bismuth Boro Zinc Glasses Using Machine Learning Techniques.

Machine learning techniques have been employed to predict the glass densities of xBiO-(70 - x)BO-20LiO-5SbO-5ZnO glasses using a data set of 2000 various BO rich glasses using their chemical composition and ionic radius. The experimental density of present glasses strongly depends on BiO content which is increasing with bismuth content. The increasing density in bismuth doped glasses because the BO are converted into BO units, and besides BO units are less heavy than the BO units.
