The present invention relates to glass ceramic material and its use as means for joining different types of material and as support. Said glass ceramic material comprising, on a weight percent basis, 10-35% MgO, 10-55% BaO and 25-50% SiO2 and is formed by the following steps: a) melting of glass raw material at a temperature in excess of 1450 ° C. and that the thereby formed melt is cooled rapidly to a temperature below 900° C. and thereafter to ambient temperature to form a precursor glass, b) milling of the precursor glass into a sinterable glass powder with an average particle size in the range of 1 micron to 100 microns, c) forming of the glass powder into a green body of suitable shape, with or without organic processing aids, and subjecting said green body to a thermal treatment comprising a heating stage of average heating rate not exceeding 100 ° C./minute between the temperatures of 750 ° C. and 900 ° C.
