Abstract: A novel method based on polyacrylamide gel process was used to prepare Li2O-Al2O3-SiO2 (LAS) glass-ceramic powders. The effects of ZrO2 addition on the crystallization and phase transformation process in LAS system were investigated by using differential thermal analysis (DTA), X-ray powder diffractometry (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The activation energy decreases from 304.6 to 248.9kJ/mol and the frequency factor decreases from 2.49×10 11 to 5.56×108 min -1 as ZrO2 content changes from 0 to 4.0%(mass fraction). During calcination from 800 to 1200℃, hexagonal β-quartz solid-solution first crystallizes and then gradually transforms into tetragonal β-spodumene solid-solution with increasing temperature. The stability of β-quartz solid-solution increases with more ZrO2 additions and a minor crystalline phase, tetragonal zirconia, also appears.
