Abstract: Li2O-Al2O3-SiO2 glass-ceramics have excellent optical and mechanical properties. In this paper, the Li2O-Al2O3-SiO2 transparent glass-ceramics with diorthite and lithium disilicate as the main crystal phase were prepared. The influence of MgO content on the crystallization behavior and structure of glass-ceramics was studied by DSC, XRD and SEM, and the influence of MgO content on the mechanical properties of glass-ceramics was studied by Vickers hardness, bending strength and other test methods. The results show that when the MgO content (mass fraction) increases from 0% to 3%, the crystallization temperature of the basic glass decreases from 771 ℃ to 729 ℃, and the crystallization ability is enhanced, basides, the crystallinity increases from 62% to 72%, and the grain size increases from 29 nm to 33 nm. With the increase of MgO content, β-quartz solid solution precipitates out of the glass-ceramics and the bending strength increases.

Key words: Li2O-Al2O3-SiO2 glass-ceramics, MgO, crystallizabitity, petalite, lithium disilicate, β-quartz solid solution
