  • Publication number: 20230093194
    Abstract: A method for producing a high silicate glass substrate, includes: (1) obtaining a glass precursor containing, as represented by mol % based on oxides, 60% to 75% of SiO2, 0% to 15% of Al2O3, 15% to 30% of B2O3, 0% to 3% of P2O5, and 1% to 10% in total of at least one selected from R2O and R?O; (2) applying first heat treatment to the glass precursor to cause phase separation so as to obtain a phase-separated glass; (3) applying acid treatment to the phase-separated glass to make the phase-separated glass porous so as to obtain a porous glass; (4) drying the porous glass so that a rate of change in mass reaches 10% to 50%; and (5) applying second heat treatment to the porous glass to sinter the porous glass so as to obtain a high silicate glass substrate.

  • Publication number: 20180134610
    Abstract: A glass for chemical strengthening contains, in terms of mol percentage based on oxides, SiO2: 60 to 67%, Al2O3: 9 to 13.5%, Na2O: 13.5 to 18.5%, K2O: 0.1 to 3%, MgO: 6 to 10.5%, and TiO2: more than 0% and 5% or less. The glass has a main surface and a back surface opposing the main surface. A tin content in the back surface is larger than a tin content in the main surface. A hydrogen concentration in a depth of 1 to 2 ?m in a sheet thickness direction from a surface of the main surface is gradually decreased in a depth direction.
