A technical object of the present invention is to satisfy various properties required in glass for liquid crystal displays and the like, in particular, fusibility, devitrification resistance, and like properties, and then to design a glass composition in which components harmful to the environment are reduced or substantially not contained, thereby obtaining a glass substrate that takes the environment into consideration. An alkali-free glass of the present invention contains the following glass composition in percent by weight based on oxide: 50 to 70% of SiO2, 10 to 20% of Al2O3, 8 to 12% of B2O3, 0 to 3% of MgO, 4 to 15% of CaO, 0 to 10% of SrO, 0 to 1% of BaO, and 0 to 5% of ZnO, and substantially free of alkali metal oxide and As2O3.
