  • Patent number: 5804520
    Abstract: A crystallized glass for a substrate of an information-recording disk, which has been obtained by melting a glass forming material consisting essentially of, in wt. % as oxide, 55 to 85% of SiO.sub.2, 5 to 20% of Li.sub.2 O, 0 to 10% of K.sub.2 O+Na.sub.2 O, 0 to 10% of MgO, 0 to 20% of CaO, 0 to 10% of SrO, 0 to 10% of BaO, 0 to 10% of ZnO, 0 to 10% of Al.sub.2 O.sub.3, 0 to 15% of B.sub.2 O.sub.3, 0 to 6% of P.sub.2 O.sub.5, 0 to 3% of TiO.sub.2, 0 to 3% of ZrO.sub.2, 0 to 3% of SnO.sub.2 and 0 to 1% of As.sub.2 O.sub.3 +Sb.sub.2 O.sub.3, 0.1 to 10 wt. % of F and 0.1 to 20 wt. % of Cl, molding, vitrifying and crystallizing the material, and which contains at least 0.05% by weight of chlorine after crystallization. The glass forming material may further contain 0 to 10% of Fe.sub.2 O.sub.3, 0 to 10% of Cr.sub.2 O.sub.3, 0 to 10% of NiO, 0 to 10% of V.sub.2 O.sub.5, 0 to 10% of CuO, 0 to 10% of MnO.sub.2, 0 to 10% of MoO.sub.3, the total of Fe.sub.2 O.sub.3 +Cr.sub.2 O.sub.3 +NiO+V.sub.2 O.sub.5 +CuO+MnO.sub.
