Inorganic heavy metal borate glasses were prepared through the melt quenching technique. Two sets of glasses were prepared, the compositions are (wt.%) 35 Bi 2 O 3 +(50-x) B 2 O 3 +15 Na 2 O +x PbO , where x=0, 10, 20, 30 and 35 MO +30 Na 2 O +35 B 2 O 3 ( MO = Bi 2 O 3 , PbO , ZnO ). The FTIR structural analysis was made. These glasses have different borate groups and it mainly depends on the modifier/metal ion concentration. The influence of heavy metal and transition metal ion on the borate network were also identified.
