To obtain a composition high in productivity and improved in specific Young's modulus of glass by specifying a composition range of SiO2, Al2O3, MgO and Li2O.
The composition is composed of 54.5-59.5 wt.% SiO2, 10-30 wt.% Al2O3, 10-30 wt.% MgO and 3-12 wt.% Li2O. In the production method of the glass, after mixing the starting material containing main component composition of a glass substrate formed lastly in a prescribed proportion, the starting material is put into a platinum crucible and fused. After fusing the mixture and after forming a general shape by casting the fused matter into a mold, the formed matter is annealed to room temp. Then after forming a crystalline nucleus by holding at the primary heat treating temp. for the primary treating time, the crystalline nucleus is grown by holding at a prescribed secondary heat treating temp. for the secondary treating time, and the crystalline nucleus is cooled slowly to obtain an objective crystallized glass. The glass composition is especially suitable to a crystallized glass magnetic disk, and the glass substrate having the specific Young's modulus not less than 33 and high in productivity is obtained.
