The glass composition for magnetic disk substrates can easily be formed, can easily be polished after crystallization of the glass by heat treatment or chemically strengthened by ion exchange of the glass after forming and polishing, and is used for preparing magnetic disk substrates which has excellent chemical durability, mechanical strength, heat resistance, surface flatness, and surface smoothness, and shows little degradation of magnetic film characteristics by alkali migration.
