We report our findings on the impact of the glass composition on the corrosion of microparticles occurring during the preparation of glass-ceramics using the direct doping method. Microparticles (MPs) with the composition Sr4Al14O25:Eu2+,Dy3+ with blue-green persistent luminescence were chosen as the changes in their spectroscopic properties can be related to the MPs’ corrosion. The MPs were added in phosphate-based glasses with different compositions. When using the same doping parameters, the glass system with the composition 90NaPO3-10Na2O (mol%) was found to be the least corrosive on the MPs whereas the glass system with the composition 90NaPO3-10NaF (mol%) is the most corrosive on the MPs probably due to their different viscosity at 575 °C, the temperature at which the MPs are added in the glass melts.
