Abstract
Abstract Suitable glass-ceramic base compositions, including some siicates, aluminosilicates, lithium aluminosilicates, and boroaluminates, are modified by the addition of suitable quantities of transition metal oxides prior to melting and forming into thermallycrystallizable glass articles. Appropriate crystallization and post-crystallization heat treatments are thereafter employed to cause crystallization of the articles and the formation and growth of films thereon, which films are characterized by the presence of transition metal compounds of spinel structure therein. Such films demonstrate useful electrical, magnetic, catalytic and/or light-absorptive properties.
