[0001] Cross-reference to Related Applications
[0002] The present application claims priority to the Chinese patent application No. 202411042026.2, filed on July 31, 2024, entitled "Curved photosensitive glass and preparation method and use thereof", the entire content of which is incorporated herein by reference. TECHNICAL FIELD
[0003] The present application relates to the technical field of glass, in particular to a curved photosensitive glass and a preparation method and use thereof. BACKGROUND
[0004] After the photosensitive glass is subjected to ultraviolet exposure and heat treatment, an opaque area that blocks light can be formed in the exposed area.

However, the current curved photosensitive glass, especially after heat bending treatment, still has the problem of insufficient shielding performance for visible light and near-infrared light in the exposed area. Therefore, the application of the curved photosensitive glass in the field of mobile phone cover plate, smart watch, etc. cannot fully meet the requirements.

[0075] Term explanation and test method:
[0076] In the present application, the main surface refers to the surface with the largest surface area, such as the upper surface or the lower surface of the photosensitive glass sheet placed horizontally.
[0077] In the present application, the infrared wavelength range refers to 750 nm to 1000 nm.
[0078] In the present application, the thickness of the glass is tested by a micrometer.
[0079] In the present application, the size of the glass sheet is tested by a two-dimensional measuring machine (instrument model Miyu MY-YXCL-4030).
[0080] The surface CS is tested by FSM-6000 of Japan Moritomo. Test conditions: light source wavelength is 596 nm, SOC = 28.6 (nm / cm) / MPa, refractive index = 1.52. In the present application, the surface compressive stress of the tested glass is the CS of the non-exposed area, and the exposed area cannot be tested because the light wave cannot penetrate the glass.
[0081] In the present application, the crystalline phase and the crystal content of the glass are confirmed by XRD test as follows:
[0082] (1) XRD test: The photosensitive glass of the present application was crushed and ground into a sample with a particle size of less than 75 μm, and the ground sample was tested by an X-ray diffractometer to obtain an XRD diffraction peak curve and XRD diffraction data. The X-ray diffractometer used in the present application was Shimadzu XRD-6100, the target material was copper, 2θ = 10°-50°, the scanning speed was 6° / min, the working voltage was 40 kV, and the working current was 30 mA.
[0083] (2) Determination of crystal phase: The XRD diffraction data were analyzed by Jade software (JADE Standard 8.6) to determine the crystal phase in the sample.
[0084] (3) Determination of crystal content (also referred to as crystallinity): The test results of XRD (RAW format) were imported into the X-ray diffraction data Rietveld refinement software Jade for fitting and calculation, so as to determine the crystallinity of the sample. Specifically, the ratio of the peak area of the fitted crystal phase to the total peak area of the fitting was recorded as the crystal content of the sample. The average crystal content was obtained by testing the crystal content of different positions of the same glass in the present application.
[0085] In the present application, the transmittance of the exposed region and the non-exposed region of the glass to be tested was tested by an ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer. The ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer used in the present application was Shimadzu UV-2000 ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer.
[0086] Specifically, the method for testing the exposed region of the glass to be tested was as follows: first, a jig with the same shape and size as the glass to be tested was used, and the same region corresponding to the exposed region of the glass to be tested was a hollow region, and the region corresponding to the non-exposed region of the glass to be tested was an opaque region, and the linking position of the hollow region and the opaque region was opaque. The jig was tested as a blank sample for calibration, and then the exposed region of the glass to be tested was cut into a sample with the same shape as the hollow region of the jig and placed into the hollow region of the jig for testing to obtain the transmittance. The transmittance of the exposed region of 5 pieces of glass to be tested in the same batch to different wavelengths of light was tested by an ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer, and then the average value was taken as the transmittance result of the exposed region of the glass to be tested under the wavelength of light.
[0087] In addition, the transmittance of the non-exposed region of 5 pieces of glass to be tested in the same batch to different wavelengths of light was tested by an ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer. The average value of the transmittance of the non-exposed region of 5 pieces of glass to be tested under different wavelengths of light was taken as the transmittance result of the non-exposed region of the glass to be tested under the wavelength of light.
[0088] In the present application, the single rod static pressure strength test can be as follows: the glass sample to be tested is placed on the bottom ring of a tensile testing machine (LT-850A), the test software is started, the moving speed of the extrusion rod (rod diameter 8 mm, indenter arc radius 10 mm) is set to 50 mm / min, the start test is clicked, and the extrusion rod will apply force to the center of the glass sample to be tested at the set moving speed until the glass sample cracks and breaks. The test software will automatically read the force (N) when the glass sample breaks as the test result. Ten glass samples in the same state are tested, and the average value of the test results is taken as the single rod static pressure strength of the glass sample to be tested.

The size of the substrate glass is 50mm x 50mm x 0.7mm.
[0162] (2) The above glass substrate was sequentially ultrasonically cleaned in deionized water, anhydrous ethanol, propanol and deionized water for 10 min, and then dried in a drying oven; the photosensitive substrate glass after cleaning was coated with shielding ink on the local area of the upper and lower main surfaces, as shown in Fig. 1, the black area was the shielding area; then the glass was subjected to double-sided irradiation treatment under parallel ultraviolet light with a wavelength of 310 nm (UVH 800*850 drawer type) for a total of 20 min, and the irradiation light energy density was 200 mw / cm 2 ; the UV-irradiated glass was heat treated according to the heat treatment process of Table 1 to obtain a photosensitive glass; the heat treatment included nucleation treatment and crystallization treatment; the heating rate of the nucleation treatment and the crystallization treatment was 10 ℃ / min; the above photosensitive glass was sequentially subjected to cold processing such as laser cutting, cleaving, polishing and chamfering, and a photosensitive glass with a size of was obtained, as shown in Fig. 2.
[0163] (3) The above photosensitive glass was subjected to heat bending treatment to obtain a 3D photosensitive glass containing an exposed area and a non-exposed area, and the glass shape was as shown in Fig. 3.
[0164] The heat bending treatment process included 4 preheating stations, 3 hot pressing stations and 3 cooling stations; the specific heat bending process was as shown in Table 2.
[0165] The crystal phase and transmittance (transmittance T1 at 550 nm wavelength, transmittance T3 at 850 nm wavelength and transmittance T5 at 900 nm wavelength) of the exposed area of the 3D photosensitive glass were tested, and the crystal phase and transmittance (transmittance T2 at 550 nm wavelength, transmittance T4 at 850 nm wavelength and transmittance T6 at 900 nm wavelength) of the non-exposed area of the 3D photosensitive glass were tested, and the results were as shown in Table 3.
[0166] (4) The 3D photosensitive glass obtained in (3) was subjected to chemical strengthening treatment, and the chemical strengthening treatment was sequentially 100wt% NaNO3 salt bath chemical strengthening at 450 ℃ for 3 h and 100wt% KNO3 salt bath chemical strengthening at 430 ℃ for 15 min to obtain a strengthened 3D photosensitive glass.
[0167] The surface CS and single-bar static pressure strength of the non-exposed area of the strengthened 3D photosensitive glass were tested, and the results were as shown in Table 4.
[0168] Examples 2-7
[0169] Each of the examples was performed with reference to Example 1, except that the raw material composition, process parameters and corresponding test results of each example were as shown in Tables 1-4.
[0170] Comparative Examples 1-3
[0171] Each of these experiments was conducted with reference to Example 1, except that the raw material composition, process parameters, and corresponding test results for each example are shown in Tables 1 to 4.
[0172] Table 1
[0173] Table 2
[0174] Table 3
[0175] Table 4
[0176] As shown in the table above, the 3D photosensitive glass prepared using the embodiments of this application has good shielding performance in its exposed area, especially in the infrared wavelength range, and displays a beautiful black appearance; at the same time, its non-exposed area has good light transmittance in the visible light and infrared wavelength range, which can meet the requirements of mobile phone cover plates, smartwatch back covers, and other fields.
[0177] A comparison of the data from Example 4 and Comparative Example 1 shows that, when both are processed using Process 1, the 3D photosensitive glass of Comparative Example 1 has too little Sb₂O₃ content, which falls outside the scope of this application, and therefore cannot generate sufficient Ce in its glass. 3+ Therefore, under ultraviolet irradiation, it is unable to release enough Ag. + Reduced to silver atoms Ag 0 This results in the light-blocking effect in the exposed area not meeting the requirements, and the area has a brown appearance.
[0178] By comparing Example 4 and Comparative Example 1, it can be seen that when the hot bending process is the same as Process 2, the 3D photosensitive glass of Comparative Example 1 cannot achieve the required light-blocking effect in the exposed area after hot bending, and phase separation occurs in the non-exposed area, resulting in a significant reduction in transmittance and failing to meet the light transmission performance requirements.
[0179] A comparison of Example 4 and Comparative Example 2 shows that in Comparative Example 2, excessive CeO2 content in the 3D photosensitive glass leads to a decrease in the penetration depth of ultraviolet light in the exposure area of the glass, as shown in Figure 6. Insufficient CeO2 content results in a reduction in the penetration depth of ultraviolet light in the glass's exposure area. 3+ Sufficient Ag will be excited by ultraviolet light + Reduced to silver atoms Ag 0 This results in the light-blocking effect in the exposed area not meeting the requirements.
[0180] A comparison between Example 4 and Comparative Example 3 shows that the 3D photosensitive glass in Comparative Example 3, due to its insufficient Ag₂O content, cannot reduce enough silver atoms (Ag).0 , and further causes the shading effect of the exposure area to be unable to meet the requirement.
[0181] The above merely provides specific embodiments of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, the present application can have various modifications and changes. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
