Abstract—The glass-forming ability is investigated in the LiF–ZnSO₄ binary system. It is found that, upon
cooling melts at a rate of 10³ K/s, the glass formation is observed in the concentration range 30–60 mol %
ZnSO₄. The characteristic temperatures are determined using differential thermal analysis. The density of
glasses is measured by hydrostatic weighing. The experimental results obtained are used to calculate the molar
volumes and the thermal stability parameters of lithium-containing fluorosulfate glasses.
