Abstract

Abstract Glass-ceramic products having a manganese-containing cordierite crystal structure and being impervious void free bodies exhibiting low coefficients of thermal expansions of ˜15×10 -7 /° C. (25°-1000° C.) and high electrical resistivity are obtained by the sintering of glass or glass-ceramic powders having the molar composition of about 2RO.2Al 2 O 3 .5SiO 2 , wherein RO is a combination of MgO and MnO.
