Specifically, the present glass frit can be combined with various inorganic coloring pigments to produce a colored coating when fired on the surface of the lamp glass envelope. The glass frit is a composition expressed in terms of weight percent, as calculated on the oxide basis, as follows:______________________________________ ZnO 25-31 SiO.sub.2 12-20 B.sub.2 O.sub.3 19-35 Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 1-4 Na.sub.2 O 5-10 CaO 7-9 BaO 2-6 ZrO.sub.2 0.5-4 F 1-2 K.sub.

Abstract: Borosilicate glass frit with MgO as a major component for forming partially devitrified porcelain compositions are provided which are comprised of a mixture, based on its oxide content, of barium oxide (BaO), magnesium oxide (McO) or a mixture of magnesium oxide with certain other oxides, boron trioxide (B.sub.2 O.sub.3) and silicon dioxide (SiO.sub.2). In accordance with this invention the porcelain compositions are applied to the metal core and fired to provide a partially devitrified porcelain coating on the metal core. The coating has a very low viscosity at its initial fusion point and then almost instantaneous high viscosity due to partial devitrification. The fired coating has a deformation temperature of at least 700.degree. C. and a high coefficient of thermal expansion of at least about 110.times.10.sup.-7 /.degree.C.
