The influence of the crystallisation temperature on the structure and properties of Li₂O-Al₂O₃-SiO₂ (LAS) glass-ceramics with a high aluminium content was investigated. Glass-ceramics with ultra-low CTE and high transmittance were successfully prepared by the melt-quenching method and a two-step heat treatment. The crystallisation behaviour of the glass was studied via DSC and XRD. Besides, FTIR, Raman and FE-SEM were used to explore the structure of the samples under different crystallisation temperatures. The results showed that a β-quartz solid solution with nano-size precipitated from the glass after the heat treatment and when the crystallisation temperature was 820 °C, the bending strength and microhardness reached 156 MPa and 1082.09 HV, respectively.
