  • Patent number: 11840477
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a novel glass composition that has a low permittivity and is suitable for mass production. A glass composition provided satisfies, in wt %, for example, 40?SiO2?60, 25?B2O3?45, 0<Al2O3?18, 0<R2O?5, and 0?RO?12, and satisfies at least one of: i) SiO2+B2O3?80 and SiO2+B2O3+Al2O3?99.9; and ii) SiO2+B2O3?78, SiO2+B2O3+Al2O3?99.9, and 0<RO<10. Another glass composition provided includes SiO2, B2O3, Al2O3, R2O, and 3<RO<8 at the same contents as the above, and satisfies SiO2+B2O3?75 and SiO2+B2O3+Al2O3<97, where R2O=Li2O+Na2O+K2O and RO=MgO+CaO+SrO.

  • Patent number: 11174191
    Abstract: A glass composition of the present disclosure includes, in wt %, 50?SiO2?56, 20?B2O3?30, 10?Al2O3?20, 3.5?MgO+CaO?10, and 0?R2O?1.0, further includes Fe2O3, and has a permittivity of less than 5.0 at a frequency of 1 MHz. R is at least one element selected from Li, Na, and K. The glass composition of the present disclosure is a low-permittivity glass composition with which the occurrence of fiber breakage during fiber forming can be reduced even when glass fibers to be formed have a small fiber diameter, and the occurrence of defects such as fiber breakage and fluffing during processing of the glass fibers can be reduced.

  • Publication number: 20190144329
    Abstract: A glass composition of the present disclosure includes, in wt %, 50?SiO2?54, 25?B2O3?30, 12?Al2O3?15, 0.5?MgO?1.9, 3.0?CaO?5.5, 0?ZnO?3.5, 0.1?Li2O?0.5, and 0.1?Na2O?0.3, and has a permittivity of less than 5.0 at a frequency of 1 MHz. The glass composition of the present disclosure has a low permittivity. The use of this glass composition can reduce the occurrence of devitrification and the inclusion of bubbles in glass fibers to be formed or in a shaped glass material to be formed even when the glass fibers have a small fiber diameter or the shaped glass material has a small thickness.
