Abstract
Li2O–Al2O3–SiO2 glass with CaO, MgO and TiO2 additive were investigated. With more CaO + MgO addition, the crystallization temperature (Tp) and the value of Avrami constant (n) decreased, the activation energy (E) increased. The mechanism of crystallization of the glass ceramics changed from bulk crystallization to surface crystallization. With more TiO2 addition, the crystallization temperature decreased, E and n had a little change. The crystallization of the glass ceramics changed from surface crystallization to two-dimensional crystallization. Plate-like, high mechanical properties spodumene-diopside glass ceramics were obtained. The mechanical properties related with crystallization and morphology of glass ceramics.
