A partially crystallized ceramic article as claimed in claim 1 and having the properties: (i) a thermal expansion coefficient of from 4.8×10 -6 to 7×10 -6 /°C., (ii) a dielectric constant of 6.5 to 9, at 1 MH z , and (iii) a density of 2.7 to 3.2 g/cm 3 .
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
37 words
A partially crystaillized ceramic article as claimed in claim 1 which consists essentially of a noncrystallized glass phase, alumina and a crystallized phase of anorthite or anorthite plus calcium silicate formed by partial crystallization of glass (a).
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
70 words
A partially crystallized ceramic article as claimed in claim 1 in which said powdered, noncrystalline glass (a) was prepared by melting CaO, SiO 2 and Al 2 O 3 , or their corresponding carbonates or hydroxides, at a temperature of 1300° to 1450° C., to form molten glass then pouring the molten glass into water to obtain glass frit and then milling the glass frit to obtain the glass (a).
