Abstract

The instant invention is directed to the preparation of glass-ceramic bodies exhibiting high strengths and use temperatures up to 1200.degree. C. The bodies consist essentially, expressed in terms of weight percent on the oxide basis, of ______________________________________ Li.sub.2 O 1.5-5 Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 15-25 SiO.sub.2 60-75 ZrO.sub.2 1-5 Nb.sub.2 O.sub.5 0-10 Ta.sub.2 O.sub.5 0-10 Nb.sub.2 O.sub.5 + Ta.sub.2 O.sub.5 1-10 MgO 0-10 ______________________________________ where excellent resistance to oxidation up to temperatures of 1200.degree. C. is desired, 0.5-3% As.sub.2 O.sub.3 will be included in the composition.
