The properties of scid-resistance to boiling HCl, thermal expansion coefficient and softening temperature of mother glass and glass-ceramic of LAS systems were investigated at the contents of SiO2 varing from 57 to 67wt%. The nucleation and growth of crystalline phase of LAS compositions were carried out at 50$0^{\circ}C$ and $700^{\circ}C$. The crystalline phase jconsists of lithium alumino silicate, lithum meta silicate, lithium disilicate, $\alpha$-crystobalite and $\alpha$-quartz. Lithium alumino silicate(virgilite) is the major crystalline phase in the glass ceramics. The degree of acid resistant property was increased in proportion with the silica content for both glass and ceramics. Glass-ceramic gives lower acid-resistance and thermal expansion coefficient while softening temperature shows higher for glass-ceramic than for mother glass.

Though spodumene have a law theraml expension and good thermal shock resistance, its sintering temperature is too close to its melting point in the application for industral purpose. Solving the problems, impurities within the silicate minerals act as a frit during firing, so its densification is expected through enlargement of sintering temperature range. By the heat treatment of starting materials, mixtures of silicate mineral, lithium carbonate, if necessary SiO2 or Al2O3 were added for stoichiometric correction, in the range of 1000~125$0^{\circ}C$ for 10 hrs, $\beta$-spodumene single phase was synthesized. Mixtures with sillimanite group minerals, $\beta$-spodumene was formed at 120$0^{\circ}C$ or 125$0^{\circ}C$ via intermediate phases of petalite, Li2SiO3 and LiAlO2. For the case of kaolin group minerals, synthesis were completed at 110$0^{\circ}C$ for Hadon pink kaolin, 120$0^{\circ}C$ for New Zealand white kaolin, When pyrophyllite group minerals were used, those were at the range of 1000~125$0^{\circ}C$. Spodumene was completed at lowest temperature, 100$0^{\circ}C$ from the mixture of Wando pyrophyllite among them. Microstructure of synthesized powders showed the inrregular lump shape such as densed crystallines.

FT-IR and FT-Raman spectra were measured for 15Li$_{2}$O.3Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$.78SiO$_{2}$. 4K$_{2}$O glass system after UV irradiations. Optimum UV irradiation time of Li$_{2}$O.SiO$_{2}$ crystalline phase was 60 seconds and crystalline phase of Li$_{2}$O.SiO$_{2}$ was leached out on 5% HF. 977 cm$^{1}$ band of FT-Raman spectra can be attributed to two-non bridging oxygen in unit cell for 1 hour and optimum crystallization was confirmed for 3 hrs, 630.deg.

The photomachinable glass-ceramics of Ag and CeO$_{2}$ added to Li$_{2}$O-Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$-SiO$_{2}$-K$_{2}$O glass system was investigated as a function of UV irradiation time. The temperature of optimum nucleation and crystal growth temperature were confirmed at 525.deg. C, 630.deg. C respectively using DTA and TMA. The phases of Li$_{2}$O.SiO$_{2}$ habit were lath-like and/or dendrite type and [002] direction of Li$_{2}$O.SiO$_{2}$ / Li$_{2}$O.2SiO$_{2}$ phases were changed according to the UV irradiation time by 400 W, 362 nm UV light source. Under that condition, the optimum UV irradiation time was 5 min.

The formation of , $\beta$-quartz solid solution in the $LiO_2-Al_2O_3-SiO_2$glasses containing $TiO_{2}$ and $ZrO_{2}$ as nucleating agents was investigated for various temperatures and times. Linear thermal expansion coefficients of base glasses and crystallized glasses were $45\sim 55 \times 10^{-7} \textrm{cm}/^{\circ}C$ and $ -8\sim +8 \times 10^{-7}\textrm{cm}/^{\circ}C$ ($25^{\circ}C \sim 525^{\circ}C$), respectively. The crystal phase formed by heat-treatment below $900^{\circ}C$was , $\beta$--quartz solid solution, and the crystal sizes were less than 0.21m. On the other hand, the crystal size of the base glasses containing 3.5 wt% MgO is relatively uniform and is independent with temperature. The specimen containing 3.5 wt% ZnO shows a minimum crystal size(O.l8$\mu \textrm{m}$), and it strongly depends on temperature of heat-treatment.

Nd:YAG laser of 355 nm wavelength, which amounts to 3.5 eV, produced by a harmonic generator was used to create Ag metallic particles as seeds for nucleation in photosensitive glass containing $Ag^+$ and $Ce^{3+}$ . The pulse widths and frequency of the laser were 8ns and 10 Hz, respectively. For crystalline growth, heat-treatment following laser irradiation was carried out at $570^{\circ}C$ for 1h. Then, the $LiAlSi_3O^8$ crystal phase appeared in the laser irradiated lithium aluminum silicate glass. We present the effect of laser-induced nucleation compared with spontaneous nucleation by heat treatment fur crystallization in the glass.
