Preliminary XRD, IR, Raman and SEM data indicate that porous glass-ceramic monoliths (pgc-LVCP) with skeleton of V(PO3)3 and Ca3(VO4)2 with three-dimensional network structure using an original Li2O-V2O3-CaO-P 2O5 glass as precursor was obtained. The pgc-LVCP is a promising porous host for integrated chemical systems because the Ca3(VO4)2 has ferroelectric and luminophor properties while V(PO3)3 exhibits magnetic properties associated with high degree of mechanical, chemical and thermal stability.
