It is possible to obtain an alkali-free glass having a low devitrification tendency. When CaO + MgO + BaO + SrO exceeds 17.5%, the meltability improves, but the thermal expansion coefficient increases in particular,
Chemical resistance decreases. If it is less than 14.5%, the coefficient of thermal expansion decreases, but the high temperature viscosity increases, making melting and molding difficult,
The devitrification tendency also increases, and the electric resistance during melting increases, which is not suitable for electric melting by direct current application. Therefore, 14.5 to 17.5

In Table 1, Examples No. 1 to No. 8 are the glasses according to the present invention and have a strain point of 660 ° C. or higher and excellent heat resistance. The coefficient of thermal expansion is also close to the coefficient of thermal expansion of the Si thin film, 36 × 10 -7 / ° C,
The working temperature is 1290 ° C or less, and the devitrification temperature is lower than the working temperature, so float molding is possible. Acid loss resistance is also 0.14mg / c
It has m 2 or less and has sufficient acid resistance as a substrate for liquid crystal displays and the like.

The alkali-free glass of the present invention has heat resistance,
Since it has excellent chemical resistance and an appropriate coefficient of thermal expansion, it is used as a glass substrate for forming a thin film of metal or metal oxide on the glass surface and etching the thin film to form a pattern, especially as a TFT substrate. It is suitable, and also suitable for the meltability of glass by the direct current method and the moldability of the float method,
Homogeneous glass can be continuously produced at low cost, which is suitable for mass production.
