Problems solved by technology

However, a problem with this approach is that at heat treatment temperatures, often above the melting point of the salt, the solid film coated on the glass sheet tends to flow, resulting in unstable, non-uniform ion exchange at the surface of the glass sheet

example 1

[0023] Potassium nitrate (KNO3) and alumina (Al 2 o 3 ) powder mixture is placed on the surface of a silicate glass plate containing 4.8w / w% Na 2 O, 6.2w / w%K 2 O, 1.66w / w% MgO, 5.25w / w% CaO, 7.2w / w% SrO, 8w / w% BaO, 2.7w / w% ZrO 2 , 6.7w / w% Al 2 o 3 and 57.3w / w% SiO as the main component 2 .

[0024] The glass plate with the solid layer was placed in a furnace, heated to 480° C. over 1 hour, and held at this temperature for 1 hour. The heat-treated glass plate was allowed to cool to 20° C. over 2 hours and then washed with distilled water to remove the residual powder layer.

[0025] A 100 g load was applied at 5 points with a Vickers hardness tester to determine the average microhardness (MPa) of each glass plate ((1-1) to (1-6)) obtained above, and these average microhardness The microhardness was compared to the hardness of the original untreated glass plate (control). The results are shown in Table 1. The change in the microhardness of the glass plate as a function...

example 2

[0029] Potassium nitrate (KNO 3 ), alumina (Al 2 o 3 ) and aluminum trichloride (AlCl 3 ) mixture was placed on the surface of the same glass plate as in Example 1 to form a solid layer 1 mm to 2 mm thick thereon.

[0030] The glass plate with the solid layer was placed in a furnace, heated to 460° C. over 1 hour, and then held at this temperature for 1 hour. The heat-treated glass plate was allowed to cool to 20° C. over 2 hours and then washed with distilled water to remove the residual powder layer.

[0031] A load of 100 g was applied at 5 points using a Vickers hardness tester to determine the average microhardness (MPa) of each of the glass plates ((2-1) to (2-4)) obtained above was determined. The results are shown in Table 2. exist figure 2 Shown in is the SEM photograph of the surface of a glass plate treated with a mixture of 50 mol% potassium nitrate, 40 mol% alumina and 10 mol% aluminum trichloride.

[0035] Except using a mixture of 35 mol% potassium nitrate and 65 mol% alumina, the heat treatment (ion exchange) temperature was changed as shown in Table 3, and the procedure of Example 1 was repeated to prepare various glass plates.

[0036] A load of 100 g was applied at 5 points with a Vickers hardness tester to determine the average microhardness (MPa) of each of the glass plates ((3-1) to (3-5)) obtained above. The results are shown in Table 3.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for strengthening a flat glass plate, which includes the steps of: forming a solid layer including potassium salt and inorganic oxide on the glass plate, and heating the solid layer with the solid layer at a temperature ranging from 400°C to the glass strain point. Glass plate, causing ion exchange of alkali metal ions between the solid layer and the surface of the glass plate, cooling and washing the heat-treated glass plate.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for preparing a high strength flat glass sheet suitable as a display panel. Background technique [0002] High-strength, thin flat glass sheets are used to make displays such as thin-film-transistor liquid-crystal displays (TFT-LCDs), plasma display panels (PDPs), and electroluminescent (EL) devices. In order to strengthen the strength of the flat glass plate, U.S. Patent No. 6607999, European Patent Publication No. 1388881 A2 and Japanese Patent No. 2837134 disclose a method of chemically strengthening the surface of the glass plate by ion exchange of alkali metal ions on the surface of the glass plate. method. [0003] This chemical enhancement method is based on ion exchange technology to replace large alkali metal ions such as potassium (K + ) to replace the small sodium ions (Na + ) to impart compressive stress to the surface of the glass plate. The effect of this ion exchange t...
