ABSTRACT:
A glass composition for magnetic disk substrates comprising as oxides: from 66 to 80% by weight of SiO.sub.2, from 5 to 15% by weight of Al.sub.2 O.sub.3, from 3 to 8.5% by weight of Li.sub.2 O, from 0 to 3% by weight of Na.sub.2 O, from 0 to 3% by weight of K.sub.2 O, from 0.5 to 8% by weight of TiO.sub.2, from 3.5 to 8% by weight of ZrO.sub.2, from 0.5 to 3% by weight of P.sub.2 O.sub.5, from 0 to 2% by weight of Sb.sub.2 O.sub.3, and from 0 to 2% by weight of As.sub.2 O.sub.3, and having a theoretical optical basicity of 0.548 or less; a magnetic disk substrate which is prepared by forming and polishing the above glass composition, followed by chemically strengthening the polished substrate by ion exchange or by forming, heat treating, and polishing the above composition and contains Li.sub.2 O.2SiO.sub.2 and/or spodumene as the main crystalline phase. The glass composition for magnetic disk substrates can easily be formed, can easily be polished after crystallization of the glass by heat treatment or chemically strengthened by ion exchange of the glass after forming and polishing, and is used for preparing magnetic disk substrates which has excellent chemical durability, mechanical strength, heat resistance, surface flatness, and surface smoothness, and shows little degradation of magnetic film characteristics by alkali migration.
