White, opaque, β-spodumene glass-ceramic articles with inherent damage resistance and methods for making the same
Abstract:
Crystallizable glasses, glass-ceramics, IXable glass-ceramics, and IX glass-ceramics are disclosed. The glass-ceramics exhibit β-spodumene ss as the predominant crystalline phase. These glasses and glass-ceramics, in mole %, include: 60-75 SiO2; 10-18 Al2O3; 5-14 Li2O; and 4.5 B2O3. The glass-ceramics also have a Vickers initiation crack threshold of at least about 25 kgf.
