Abstract:
Disclosed in the present application is a lithium-aluminosilicate glass. The lithium-aluminosilicate glass includes, by mole percent of oxides, the following components: SiO2, 62-68 mol %; Al2O3, 9-14 mol %; Na2O, 6-10 mol %; K2O, 0.2-0.7 mol %; and Li2O, 8.0-14.0 mol %; where (Li2O+Na2O+MgO)/Al2O3 is 1.7-2.5. By means of controlling the mole percents of SiO2, Al2O3, Na2O, K2O, and Li2O, as well as the range of the ratio (Li2O+Na2O+MgO)/Al2O3, it is consequently ensured that the obtained lithium-aluminosilicate glass, upon chemical strengthening, has high strength, satisfies a requirement of a client with respect to “film-peeling electrostatic voltage”, and further has uniquely advantageous effects of a lower melting temperature and being able to save energy and reduce energy consumption.

The invention relates to a process for the preparation of a quartz glass body comprising the process steps i.) Providing a silicon dioxide granulate, wherein the silicon dioxide granulate was made from pyrogenic silicon dioxide powder and the silicon dioxide granulate has a BET surface area in a range from 20 to 40 m2/g, ii.) Making a glass melt out of silicon dioxide granulate in an oven and iii.) Making a quartz glass body out of at least part of the glass melt, wherein the oven has at least a first and a further chamber connected to one another via a passage, wherein the temperature in the first chamber is lower than the temperature in the further chambers. The invention further relates to a quartz glass body which is obtainable by this process. The invention further relates to a light guide, an illuminant and a formed body, which are each obtainable by further processing of the quartz glass body.
Abstract:
Ultralow expansion titania-silica glass. The glass has high hydroxyl content and optionally include one or more dopants. Representative optional dopants include boron, alkali elements, alkaline earth elements or metals such as Nb, Ta, Al, Mn, Sn Cu and Sn. The glass is prepared by a process that includes steam consolidation to increase the hydroxyl content. The high hydroxyl content or combination of dopant(s) and high hydroxyl content lowers the fictive temperature of the glass to provide a glass having a very low coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), low fictive temperature (Tf), and low expansivity slope.
Abstract:
A method for developing a coating having a high light transmission and/or a low light reflection is provided. The method relates to a process for developing a coating with a high light transmission and/or a low light reflection, where the coating is deposited on a substrate. The coating is deposited as a mixed coating comprising a material A and a material B, where the coating is developed to have a coating thickness profile in which the lowest proportion of the material B is on the substrate surface and the highest proportion of coating material is on the coating surface. The material B is at least partially removed from the coating after deposition of the coating on the substrate.
