Abstract:
Intermediate to high CTE glass compositions and laminates formed from the same are described. The glasses described herein have properties, such as liquidus viscosity or liquidus temperature, which make them particularly well suited for use in fusion forming processes, such as the fusion down draw process and/or the fusion lamination process. Further, the glass composition may be used in a laminated glass article, such as a laminated glass article formed by a fusion laminate process, to provide strengthened laminates via clad compression as a result of CTE mismatch between the core glass and clad glass.
Abstract:
Silicate glasses that are fictivated and fast cooled and have high levels of intrinsic or “native” damage resistance. When ion exchanged, the silicate glasses described herein have a Vickers crack initiation threshold of at least 15 kgf and, in some embodiments, at least about 25 kgf.
Abstract:
Ion exchangeable boroaluminosilicate glasses having high levels of intrinsic scratch resistance are provided. The glasses include the network formers SiO2, B2O3, and Al2O3, and at least one of Li2O, Na2O, and K2O. When ion exchanged these glasses may have a Knoop scratch initiation threshold of at least about 40 Newtons (N). These glasses may also be used to form a clad layer for a glass laminate in which the core layer has a coefficient of thermal expansion that is greater than that of the clad glass.
