The glass formation range in rubidium and caesium borates is greatly enlarged through the use of the alkali oxide instead of the more common alkali carbonate in the batch. Density and glass transition temperature (Tg) measurements were perfomed on both families of glasses and comparisons to results obtained previously from lithium, sodium and potasium borate glasses are drawn.
