In a sintered glass ceramic product including at least three layers each of which is formed by a glass ceramic material, the layers are stacked to be substantially symmetrical in a stacking direction and integrally sintered. Among the sintered layers, each of outermost layers and an inner layer adjacent thereto have crystal phases different from each other. Each of the outermost layers and the inner layer have thermal expansion coefficients &agr;1 and &agr;2 selected so that the relationship given by 0<&agr;2&minus;&agr;1<5 ppm is satisfied.

An antibacterial glass is a ZnO&mdash;B O &mdash;SiO glass and includes 0-6 wt % Na O. Typically, the antibacterial glass is used as an antibacterial agent which is filled into a resin.

A low temperature sealing composition consists essentially of 45.0 to 85.0 wt. % of PbO, 1.0 to 11.0 wt. % of B.sub.2 O.sub.3, 1.0 to 45.0 wt. % of Bi.sub.2 O.sub.3, 0.2 to 10.0 wt. % of Fe.sub.2 O.sub.3, 0 to 15.0 wt. % of ZnO, 0 to 5.0 wt. % of CuO, 0 to 5.0 wt. % of V.sub.2 O.sub.5, 0 to 3.0 wt. % of SnO.sub.2, 0 to 5.0 wt. % of SiO.sub.2 plus Al.sub.2 O.sub.3, 0 to 7.0 wt. % of BaO, 0 to 5.0 wt. % of TiO.sub.2, 0 to 5.0 wt. % of ZrO.sub.2 and 0 to 6.0 wt. % of F.sub.2. The sealing composition has a low sealing temperature of 400.degree.C. or lower and is useful for readily sealing IC packages and display panels without application of load. In order to adjust the thermal coefficient of expansion, the sealing glass composition may be used by mixing with 20 vol. % to 55 vol. % of refractory filler powder of such as lead titanate based ceramics, willemite based ceramics, cordierite ceramics, zircon based ceramics or tin oxide based ceramics.
