Abstract
This invention is drawn to thermally devitrifiable sealing glasses capable of forming sound seals with glasses, glass-ceramics, and ceramics having coefficients of thermal expansion (0.degree.-300.degree. C.) between about 0.5-5.times.10.sup.-7 /.degree. C. In finely fritted form, the glasses can be sintered and crystallized in situ at about 900.degree.-1000.degree. C. The glasses consist essentially, expressed in weight percent on the oxide basis, of about 1-2% Li.sub.2 O, 0.7-1.5% MgO, 9-13% ZnO, 19-23% Al.sub.2 O.sub.3, 62-68% SiO.sub.2, and at least 1% K.sub.2 O+Rb.sub.2 O+Cs.sub.2 O in the indicated proportions of 0-3% K.sub.2 O, 0-4% Rb.sub.2 O, and 0-6% Cs.sub.2 O.
