Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to crystallized glass, and particularly to crystallized glass, crystallized glass products having excellent mechanical properties and low haze, and a method for manufacturing the same.
Background Art
[0002] In recent years, crystallized glass has generally been used in various displays and display devices of many electronic products such as mobile phones, music players, e-book readers, notebooks, tablets, notebook computers, cash dispensers, and other similar devices. The materials constituting the cases of display devices and electronic devices are usually selected to meet the mechanical requirements related to the end uses of the electronic devices. On the other hand, electronic devices or display devices have higher requirements for the optical performance of the crystallized glass used therein. The optical performance refers to the performance exhibited when light rays are absorbed, reflected, and refracted by a substance, such as haze, B value, and refractive index. However, currently commercially available crystallized glass has a problem of high haze, so it is difficult to apply it to display devices or electronic devices with high optical performance requirements.
[0003] Therefore, the development of crystallized glass and crystallized glass products having excellent mechanical properties and low haze and suitable for display devices or electronic devices has become the goal pursued by scientists.

[0077] In some embodiments of the present invention, the crystal phase in the devitrified glass or the devitrified glass product contains a lithium disilicate crystal phase. In some embodiments, the weight percentage occupied by the lithium disilicate crystal phase in the devitrified glass or the devitrified glass product is 20% or less.

[0078] In some embodiments of the present invention, the crystalline phase in the devitrified glass or the devitrified glass product contains a petalite crystalline phase, and the weight percentage occupied by the petalite crystalline phase in the devitrified glass or the devitrified glass product is 15% or less.

[0079] SiO₂ is a basic component of the glass, devitrified glass, and devitrified glass products of the present invention, and is one of the components that form the lithium silicate crystal phase. When the content of SiO₂ is 60% or less, the crystals in the devitrified glass tend to be coarse, which affects the light transmittance of the devitrified glass and devitrified glass products. Therefore, the lower limit of the content of SiO₂ is 60%, preferably 62%, and more preferably 64%. When the content of SiO₂ is 80% or more, the melting temperature of the glass is high, making it difficult to melt the material, and the haze of the devitrified glass and devitrified glass products increases. Therefore, the upper limit of the content of SiO₂ is 80%, preferably 78%, and more preferably 75%. In some embodiments, it may contain about 60%, 60.5%, 61%, 61.5%, 62%, 62.5%, 63%, 63.5%, 64%, 64.5%, 65%, 65.5%, 66%, 66.5%, 67%, 67.5%, 68%, 68.5%, 69%, 69.5%, 70%, 70.5%, 71%, 71.5%, 72%, 72.5%, 73%, 73.5%, 74%, 74.5%, 75%, 75.5%, 76%, 76.5%, 77%, 77.5%, 78%, 78.5%, 79%, 79.5%, 80% of SiO₂.
[0080] Al₂O₃ is a component that forms the glass network structure, is advantageous for chemically strengthening the devitrified glass and improving the drop resistance of the devitrified glass products. When its content is less than 3%, the above effects are not preferable. Therefore, the lower limit of the content of Al₂O₃ is 3%, preferably 5%. On the other hand, when the content of Al₂O₃ exceeds 15%, the fragments obtained by pulverizing the devitrified glass products obtained by chemically strengthening the devitrified glass are small (generally in a particulate state), which is disadvantageous for continuous use. Therefore, the upper limit of the content of Al₂O₃ is 15%, preferably 12%, and more preferably 10%. In some embodiments, it may contain about 3%, 3.5%, 4%, 4.5%, 5%, 5.5%, 6%, 6.5%, 7%, 7.5%, 8%, 8.5%, 9%, 9.5%, 10%, 10.5%, 11%, 11.5%, 12%, 12.5%, 13%, 13.5%, 14%, 14.5%, 15% of Al₂O₃.
[0081] Li2O is an essential component for the crystallized glass of the present invention to form a crystal phase and is also an essential component for chemical strengthening. However, when its content is less than 5%, the types of crystals formed change, affecting the strength of the crystallized glass and crystallized glass products. Therefore, the lower limit of the Li2O content is 5%, preferably 6%. On the other hand, when Li2O is contained in excess, the haze of the crystallized glass and crystallized glass products increases, and the raw material cost increases. Therefore, the upper limit of the Li2O content is less than 10%. In some embodiments, it may contain about 5%, 5.5%, 6%, 6.5%, 7%, 7.5%, 8%, 8.5%, 9%, 9.5%, 9.8%, and less than 10% of Li2O.
[0082] Na2O is advantageous for the formation of the lithium monosilicate crystal phase in the crystallized glass and can improve the stability of the crystallized glass after chemical strengthening. However, in the present invention, the above effects are achieved by containing 4% or more of Na2O, preferably 4.5% or more of Na2O. However, when Na2O is contained in excess, it becomes difficult to form the lithium monosilicate crystal phase in the crystallized glass, affecting the light transmittance of the crystallized glass and crystallized glass products. Therefore, the upper limit of the Na2O content is 8%, preferably 7.5%, more preferably 7%. In some embodiments, it may contain about 4%, 4.5%, 5%, 5.5%, 6%, 6.5%, 7%, 7.5%, 8% of Na2O.
[0083] In some embodiments, by controlling the ratio (SiO2+Al2O3+Na2O) / Li2O of the total content of SiO2, Al2O3 and Na2O, i.e., SiO2+Al2O3+Na2O, to the content of Li2O within the range of 7.0 to 18.0, the crystal grains can be refined, the fracture toughness of the crystallized glass and the crystallized glass product can be improved, and it is advantageous to improve the ion exchange layer depth and surface stress of the crystallized glass product. Therefore, preferably, (SiO2+Al2O3+Na2O) / Li2O is 7.0 to 18.0, more preferably, (SiO2+Al2O3+Na2O) / Li2O is 7.5 to 15.0, still more preferably, (SiO2+Al2O3+Na2O) / Li2O is 8.5 to 13.0, and even more preferably, (SiO2+Al2O3+Na2O) / Li2O is 8.5 to 11.0. In some embodiments, the value of (SiO2+Al2O3+Na2O) / Li2O may be 7.0, 7.3, 7.5, 7.7, 8.0, 8.3, 8.5, 8.7, 9.0, 9.3, 9.5, 9.7, 10.0, 10.3, 10.5, 10.7, 11.0, 11.3, 11.5, 11.7, 12.0, 12.3, 12.5, 12.7, 13.0, 13.3, 13.5, 13.7, 14.0, 14.3, 14.5, 14.7, 15.0, 15.3, 15.5, 15.7, 16.0, 16.3, 16.5, 16.7, 17.0, 17.3, 17.5, 17.7, 18.0.
[0084] ZrO₂ can prevent crystallization during glass forming, refine crystal grains during crystallization heat treatment, and reduce the haze of the crystallized glass and crystallized glass products. In the present invention, the lower limit of the ZrO₂ content is more than 5%, preferably 5.5% or more, and more preferably 6% or more. However, when ZrO₂ is contained in excess, ZrO₂ is difficult to melt in the glass, is likely to form stones, and weakens the heat treatment crystallization ability of the glass. Therefore, the upper limit of the ZrO₂ content is 15%, preferably 13%, and more preferably 12%. In some embodiments, it may contain about more than 5%, 5.5%, 6%, 6.5%, 7%, 7.5%, 8%, 8.5%, 9%, 9.5%, 10%, 10.5%, 11%, 11.5%, 12%, 12.5%, 13%, 13.5%, 14%, 14.5%, 15% of ZrO₂.

[0088] P2O5 can perform non-uniform crystal nucleation in the glass, promote crystal formation, and improve the light transmittance of the crystallized glass and the crystallized glass product. In the present invention, the lower limit of the content of P2O5 is 0.5%, preferably 1%, and more preferably 1.5%. However, when P2O5 is contained in excess, it is likely to directly crystallize during glass forming, and it is difficult to control the heat treatment process. Therefore, the upper limit of the content of P2O5 is 5%, preferably 4.5%, and more preferably 4%. In some embodiments, it may contain about 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, 2%, 2.5%, 3%, 3.5%, 4%, 4.5%, 5% of P2O5.

[0090] ZnO can lower the melting temperature of the glass, but if its content is too high, the haze of the crystallized glass and the crystallized glass product will increase.

In some embodiments, it may contain about 0%, more than 0%, 0.01%, 0.05%, 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3%, 0.4%, 0.5%, 0.6%, 0.7%, 0.8%, 0.9%, 1%, 1.1%, 1.2%, 1.3%, 1.4%, 1.5%, 1.6%, 1.7%, 1.8%, 1.9%, 2% of ZnO.
[0091] MgO can lower the melting temperature of the glass, but if its content is too high, the haze of the crystallized glass and the crystallized glass product will increase.

[0092] B2O3 can lower the melting temperature of the glass, increase the content of the glass phase in the crystallized glass, and is advantageous for hot bending of the crystallized glass and the crystallized glass product. However, when the glass contains an excessive amount of B2O3, it is likely to phase-separate during the crystallization heat treatment, and the light transmittance of the crystallized glass and the crystallized glass product will decrease.

[0093] K2O can lower the viscosity of the glass and promote the growth of crystals during the crystallization heat treatment. However, when K2O is contained in excess, the crystals in the glass grow rapidly, and it becomes easy to reduce the light transmittance of the crystallized glass and the crystallized glass product. Therefore, the content of K2O is 3% or less, preferably 2%, more preferably 1% or less.

[0094] Ln2O3 (Ln2O3 is one or more of La2O3, Gd2O3, Y2O3, Yb2O3) can reduce the difficulty of melting the glass. If the content is too high, crystallization becomes difficult when the glass crystallizes, the crystallinity of the crystallized glass and the crystallized glass product decreases, and the body ball drop height of the crystallized glass and the ball drop test height of the crystallized glass product decrease. Therefore, the upper limit of the content of Ln2O3 is 2%, preferably 1%, more preferably 0.5%, and even more preferably, it does not contain Ln2O3. In some embodiments, it may contain about 0%, greater than 0%, 0.01%, 0.05%, 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3%, 0.4%, 0.5%, 0.6%, 0.7%, 0.8%, 0.9%, 1%, 1.1%, 1.2%, 1.3%, 1.4%, 1.5%, 1.6%, 1.7%, 1.8%, 1.9%, 2% of Ln2O3.

In some embodiments, it may contain about 0.4%, 0.6%, 0.8%, 1.0%, 1.2%, 1.4%, 1.6%, 1.8%, 2.0%, 2.2%, 2.4%, 2.6%, 2.8%, 3.0%, 3.2%, 3.4%, 3.6%, 3.8%, 4.0%, 4.2%, 4.4%, 4.6%, 4.8%, 5.0%, 5.2%, 5.4%, 5.6%, 5.8%, 6.0%, 6.2%, 6.4%, 6.6%, 6.8%, 7.0%, 7.2%, 7.4%, 7.6%, 7.8%, 8.0% of Nd2O3.
[0105] In the red matrix glass, devitrified glass or devitrified glass product manufactured by the present invention, three mixed colorants of Er2O3, Nd2O3 and MnO2 are used. Er ions in the glass are absorbed at 400-500 nm, Mn ions are mainly absorbed at 500 nm, and Nd ions are mainly strongly absorbed at 580 nm. By mixing the three substances, a red matrix glass, devitrified glass or devitrified glass product can be manufactured.

The usage amount of Er2O3 is within 6%, the usage amount of Nd2O3 is within 4%, MnO2 has strong coloring, and the usage amount is within the range of 2%. The lower limit of the total amount of the mixed colorants used is 0.9% or more.
[0106] As used herein, "not containing" and "0%" mean that the compound, molecule, element, etc. is not intentionally added as a raw material to the matrix glass, devitrified glass or devitrified glass product of the present invention. However, as raw materials and / or equipment for manufacturing matrix glass, devitrified glass or devitrified glass products, there may be some impurities or components that are not intentionally added and are contained in trace or small amounts in the final matrix glass, devitrified glass or devitrified glass product. Such situations are also within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
[0107] In some embodiments of the present invention, the crystal phase in the devitrified glass and the devitrified glass product contains lithium metasilicate, which provides high strength to the devitrified glass and the devitrified glass product of the present invention, increases the fracture toughness of the devitrified glass and the devitrified glass product, and increases the body ball-drop height of the devitrified glass, the ball-drop test height of the devitrified glass product and the four-point bending strength. The devitrified glass of the present invention has excellent chemical strengthening performance and can also obtain excellent mechanical strength by being treated by a chemical strengthening process. Through reasonable component design, the devitrified glass and the devitrified glass product of the present invention can obtain an appropriate crystal grain size and have high strength. The devitrified glass and the devitrified glass product of the present invention have excellent mechanical properties due to their high degree of crystallinity. The degree of crystallinity mentioned here refers to the perfection of the crystal, that is, the arrangement of the mass points inside the complete crystal of the crystal is regular, the diffraction line is strong, sharp and symmetric, and the half-value width of the diffraction peak is close to the width measured by the instrument. In crystals with a low degree of crystallinity, defects such as dislocations cause the peak shape of the diffraction line to be widely dispersed. The lower the degree of crystallinity, the weaker the diffraction ability, and the wider the diffraction peak becomes until it disappears into the background. In some embodiments, the degree of crystallinity of the devitrified glass product or the devitrified glass is 10% or more, preferably 15% or more, and more preferably 20% or more.
[0108] The crystal grain size and the type of crystal phase in the devitrified glass or devitrified glass product of the present invention affect the haze and light transmittance of the devitrified glass or devitrified glass product. The smaller the crystal grains, the higher the light transmittance, and the smaller the haze, the higher the light transmittance. In some embodiments, the haze of the devitrified glass product or devitrified glass having a thickness of 1 mm or less is 0.2% or less, preferably 0.17% or less, and more preferably 0.15% or less.

[0109] In some embodiments, the content and refractive index of the crystal phase in the devitrified glass or devitrified glass product of the present invention affect the |B| value of the devitrified glass or devitrified glass product. Observe that the devitrified glass or devitrified glass product appears bluish or yellowish within the visible light range, which affects the optical performance of the product and is marked with the |B| value in LAB (chromaticity value of the color of a substance). The devitrified glass or devitrified glass product of the present invention exhibits a low |B| value within the visible light range. In some embodiments, the average light |B| value of the devitrified glass product or devitrified glass having a thickness of 1 mm or less at 400 - 800 nm is 1.0 or less, preferably 0.9 or less, and more preferably 0.8 or less.

The devitrified glass or devitrified glass product exhibits a high transmittance within the visible light range. In some embodiments, the average light transmittance of the devitrified glass product or devitrified glass having a thickness of 1 mm or less at 400 - 800 nm is preferably 90.5% or more. In some preferred embodiments, the light transmittance of the devitrified glass product or devitrified glass having a thickness of 1 mm or less at 550 nm is preferably 91.5% or more.
[0111] In some embodiments, an antimicrobial component may be added to matrix glass, devitrified glass, or a devitrified glass product. The devitrified glass or devitrified glass product described herein can be used, for example, in applications such as kitchen or food preparation countertops that are likely to be exposed to harmful bacteria. The antibacterial components contained in matrix glass, devitrified glass, or a devitrified glass product include, but are not limited to, Ag, AgO, Cu, CuO, Cu2O, etc. In some embodiments, the content of the above antimicrobial component, alone or in combination, is 2% or less, preferably 1% or less.
[0112] The matrix glass, devitrified glass, and devitrified glass products of the present invention can be produced and manufactured by the following methods.
[0113] Regarding the production of matrix glass, the raw materials are uniformly mixed according to the component ratio, and the uniformly mixed raw materials are placed in a platinum or quartz crucible. Depending on the melting difficulty of the glass composition, they are melted in an electric furnace or a gas furnace within a temperature range of 1250 to 1650 °C for 5 to 24 hours. After stirring to make it uniform, the temperature is lowered to an appropriate temperature and then cast into a mold and slowly cooled to form.
[0114] The matrix glass of the present invention can be formed by known methods.
[0115] For the matrix glass of the present invention, after forming or forming processing, a crystallization process is performed for crystallization treatment, and crystals are uniformly precipitated inside the glass. The crystallization treatment may be performed in one step or in two steps, preferably in two steps. The treatment of the crystal nucleation process is performed at a first temperature, and then the treatment of the crystal growth process is performed at a second temperature higher than the temperature of the crystal nucleation process. The crystallization treatment performed at the first temperature is called the first crystallization treatment, and the crystallization treatment performed at the second temperature is called the second crystallization treatment.
[0116] In order for the devitrified glass to obtain the desired physicochemical properties, the preferred crystallization process is as follows.
[0117] By performing the crystallization process in the above-mentioned one-step manner, the crystal nucleation process and the crystal growth process can be carried out continuously. That is, the temperature is raised to a predetermined crystallization temperature, and after reaching the crystallization temperature, the temperature is maintained for a certain period of time, and then the temperature is lowered.

[0119] The above-mentioned holding time of 0 hours means that the temperature is lowered or raised again within less than 1 minute after reaching the temperature.
[0120] In some embodiments, the matrix glass or crystallized glass described herein can be manufactured into a molded body by various processes. The molded body includes, but is not limited to, a sheet. The processes include, but are not limited to, slit drawing, the float method, roll pressing, and other sheet forming processes known in the art. Alternatively, the matrix glass or crystallized glass can be formed by the float method or roll pressing method known in the art. The molded body described in the present invention further includes lenses, prisms, and the like.
[0121] Regarding the matrix glass or crystallized glass of the present invention, a glass molded body or a crystallized glass molded body of a sheet can be manufactured by methods such as polishing or buff polishing, but the method for manufacturing the glass molded body or the crystallized glass molded body is not limited to these methods.
[0122] Regarding the matrix glass or devitrified glass of the present invention, glass molded articles or devitrified glass molded articles of various shapes can be manufactured and formed by methods such as a hot bending process or a press molding process at a certain temperature, but it is not limited to these methods.
[0123] In some embodiments, a glass molded article or a devitrified glass molded article may be manufactured by a hot bending process. The hot bending process is a process of placing 2D or 2.5D glass or devitrified glass in a mold and sequentially performing steps such as preheating by heating, pressure molding, and pressure holding and cooling in a hot bending machine to manufacture a 3D curved surface glass molded article or devitrified glass molded article.
[0124] In some embodiments, the devitrified glass molded article has a 2.5D or 3D structure, that is, a non-planar structure. The "non-planar structure" described in this specification means that in a 2.5D or 3D shape, at least a part of the devitrified glass molded article extends outward or extends along an included angle with a plane limited by the original layout arrangement of the 2D matrix glass. The 2.5D or 3D devitrified glass molded article formed of matrix glass may have one or more convex portions or bent portions.
[0125] In some embodiments, according to the characteristics such as the growth of the crystal phase and the phase transition of the crystal phase in the devitrified glass, the manufacturing method of the devitrified glass molded article is a hot bending process method. Specifically, the method includes preliminary crystallization and hot processing and molding. The preliminary crystallization described in the present invention is to form preliminary crystallized glass by treating matrix glass by a controlled crystallization process, and the crystallinity of the preliminary crystallized glass does not reach the crystallinity required for the performance index of the target devitrified glass molded article. The preliminary crystallized glass is treated by a hot processing and molding process to form a devitrified glass molded article.
[0126] In some embodiments, the manufacturing method of the devitrified glass molded article is 1) Perform a single crystallization heat treatment process on the matrix glass, including heating, heat preservation, nucleation, heating, heat preservation, and crystallization, and cooling to room temperature to form a preliminary crystallized glass; 2) Perform hot processing and forming on the preliminary crystallized glass to obtain a crystallized glass formed body.
[0127] The crystallization heat treatment process described in the present invention performs nucleation on the matrix glass at a certain temperature T h and time t h and further crystallizes at a certain temperature T c and time t c The crystallinity of the obtained preliminary crystallized glass does not reach the crystallinity required for the performance index of the target crystallized glass formed body. Using XRD measurement data, the total content of the main crystal phase in the crystallinity of the preliminary crystallized glass is calculated as I c1 The preliminary crystallization of the present invention is a complete process in terms of the process of the process, including a one-step nucleation process, a one-step, two-step, or three-step or more crystallization process, etc., and is a complete process including heating, heat preservation, reheating, reheating... and then cooling to room temperature according to the process. Different from the primary crystallization, secondary crystallization... mentioned in some literatures or patents, the present invention is only the first-stage crystallization, the second-stage crystallization... in the actual complete crystallization process, and the intermediate process is continuous, and there is no process of reheating and crystallizing after cooling to room temperature.
[0128] The hot processing and forming described in the present invention refers to performing a forming process on the preliminary crystallized glass by a hot processing process under conditions such as a certain temperature, time, pressure, etc. The hot processing and forming includes one or more hot processing processes, and the hot processing process includes, but is not limited to, performing press forming, bending forming, or drawing forming on the preliminary crystallized glass under conditions such as a certain temperature, time, pressure, etc. In the hot processing and forming process, it may not be possible to complete a formed body with a complex shape in a single hot processing, and it may be realized by performing multiple hot processing processes more than twice.
[0129] In some embodiments, the method for manufacturing a devitrified glass formed body is a hot bending process method. Specifically, in some embodiments, the method for manufacturing a devitrified glass formed body includes the following steps 1) to 3).
[0130] 1) In the heating preheating step, matrix glass, preliminary devitrified glass or devitrified glass is placed in a mold, and the mold is sequentially passed through each heating site in a hot bending machine, and the mold is retained at each site for a certain period of time for heat preservation. The temperature of the preheating region is set to 400 to 800 °C, the pressure is set to 0.01 to 0.05 MPa, and the time is set to 40 to 200 s. In some embodiments, for a hot bending machine with five preheating sites, generally, it is stably set to about 500 °C during the initial heating, and the temperature is gradually increased at subsequent sites. The temperature gradient between two adjacent sites gradually decreases from low to high, and the temperature difference between the last preheating site and the first site for press forming only needs to be within the range of 20 °C.
[0131] 2) In the pressure forming step, after preheating the mold, it is transferred to the forming site, and a certain pressure is applied to the mold by a hot bending machine. The pressure range (the magnitude of the pressure is determined according to factors such as the thickness and radian of the glass) is set to 0.1 to 0.8 Mpa, the temperature range of the forming site is set to 600 to 850 °C, and the forming time range is set to 40 to 200 s.
[0132] 3) In the pressure holding and cooling step, the mold is transferred to the cooling site and cooled site by site. The cooling temperature range is controlled to 750 to 500 °C, the pressure is controlled to 0.01 to 0.05 Mpa, and the time is controlled to 40 to 200 s.
[0133] When forming a devitrified glass formed body by a hot bending process, for example, it is necessary to control the appearance quality of general high-aluminum glass, and it is also necessary to control the influence of crystal growth in the hot bending process on the performance of the devitrified glass. For example, for 3D curved surface devitrified glass used in the case of a display device or an electronic device, it is necessary to closely pay attention to the light transmittance, haze, |B| value and its uniformity after hot bending.
[0134] The matrix glass, devitrified glass, and devitrified glass products described in the present invention may have any reasonable and useful thickness.
[0135] Regarding the devitrified glass of the present invention, in addition to precipitating crystals to improve mechanical properties, by forming a compressive stress layer, more excellent mechanical properties can be obtained, and devitrified glass products can be manufactured.
[0136] In some embodiments, the matrix glass or devitrified glass may be processed into a sheet and / or shaped (e.g., perforated, hot bent, etc.), and after being shaped, it may be buffed and / or polished, and further chemically strengthened by a chemical strengthening process.
[0137] The chemical strengthening described in the present invention is an ion exchange method. During the ion exchange process, small metal ions in the matrix glass or devitrified glass are substituted or "exchanged" by large metal ions having the same valence that are close to the matrix glass or devitrified glass. Substituting small ions with large ions constructs compressive stress in the matrix glass or devitrified glass and forms a compressive stress layer.
[0138] In some embodiments, the metal ions are monovalent alkali metal ions (e.g., Na + , K + , Rb + , Cs + , etc.), and the ion exchange is performed by immersing the matrix glass or devitrified glass in a salt bath of at least one molten salt containing large metal ions for substituting small metal ions in the matrix glass. Alternatively, other monovalent metal ions such as Ag + , Tl + , Cu + , etc. may also be used for the exchange of monovalent ions. One or more ion exchange processes for chemically strengthening the matrix glass or devitrified glass include, but are not limited to, immersing in a single salt bath or in a plurality of salt baths having the same or different compositions, and having a washing and / or annealing step during the immersion.
[0139] In some embodiments, the matrix glass or the crystallized glass can be ion-exchanged by immersing it in a salt bath of molten Na salt (e.g., NaNO3) at a temperature of about 350°C to 470°C for about 1 to 36 hours. Preferably, the temperature range is 380°C to 460°C, and preferably, the time range is 2 to 24 hours. In such embodiments, Na ions replace some of the Li ions in the matrix glass or the crystallized glass to form a surface compression layer, showing high mechanical properties. In some embodiments, the matrix glass or the crystallized glass can be ion-exchanged by immersing it in a salt bath of molten K salt (e.g., KNO3) at a temperature of about 360°C to 450°C for 1 to 36 hours. Preferably, the time range is 2 to 24 hours. In some embodiments, the matrix glass or the crystallized glass can be ion-exchanged by immersing it in a mixed salt bath of molten K salt and Na salt at a temperature of about 360°C to 450°C for 1 to 36 hours. Preferably, the time range is 2 hours to 24 hours.

Sandpaper with a mesh size of 60 to 80 was laid on the pedestal, and the products were freely dropped from a predetermined height, directly hitting the sandpaper. The height of the impact that the sample could withstand without breaking was defined as the drop resistance. Specifically, the test was carried out from a height of 600 mm. If it did not break, the height was changed in the order of 700 mm, 800 mm, 900 mm, 1000 mm or more. For the examples with "drop resistance", the crystallized glass products were used as the test objects. In the examples, the test data recorded as 2000 mm indicated that the crystallized glass products with the load could withstand the impact without breaking even when dropped from a height of 2000 mm. The maximum test height of the drop tester WH-2101 was 2000 mm.
[0152] [Falling ball test height] A 145 mm × 67 mm × 0.7 mm crystallized glass product sample was placed on a glass placement jig, and a 132 g steel ball was dropped from a predetermined height. The maximum falling ball test height of the impact that the sample could withstand without breaking was defined as the falling ball test height. Specifically, the test was carried out from a falling ball test height of 800 mm. If it did not break, the height was changed in the order of 850 mm, 900 mm, 950 mm, 1000 mm or more.

The maximum drop ball test height of the impact that the sample could withstand without breaking was defined as the main body drop ball height. Specifically, the test was carried out starting from a drop ball test height of 500 mm. If it did not break, the height was changed in the order of 550 mm, 600 mm, 650 mm, 700 mm, and above. For the examples with the "main body drop ball height", the crystallized glass was the test object, that is, the drop ball test height of the crystallized glass. In the examples, the test data recorded as 1000 mm indicated that the crystallized glass withstood the impact without breaking even when the steel ball was dropped from a height of 1000 mm.

[0156] [Vickers hardness] The value obtained by dividing the load (N) when a diamond square pyramid indenter with a face angle of 136° was pressed into the measurement surface to form a pyramid-shaped indentation by the surface area (mm 2 ) was used to represent it. The test load was 100 (N) and the holding time was 15 (seconds). In the present invention, the Vickers hardness may be abbreviated as the hardness.
