Abstract: A method of making strengthened articles that includes: providing articles each having a first primary surface and a second primary surface, the first and second primary surfaces having one or more asymmetric surface features; providing a first ion-exchange bath; and performing an ion-exchange step by submersing the articles in the first ion-exchange bath to form strengthened articles. The articles are arranged in the first ion-exchange bath with the first primary surface of each facing the first primary surface of another of the articles at a first predetermined distance, and the second primary surface of each is facing the second primary surface of another of the articles at a second predetermined distance. The first predetermined distance and the second predetermined distance are selected such that the plurality of strengthened articles have a first strengthened surface with a convex surface, and a second strengthened surface with a concave surface.

Abstract: Anti-sparkle substrates include a first major surface with a textured surface having a surface roughness Ra from 0.03 micrometers to 0.09 micrometers. The anti-sparkle substrate is a glass-based substrate or a ceramic-based substrate. The anti-sparkle substrate can exhibit a haze from 3% to 40% and a sparkle from 1% to 3.8%. Methods include chemically strengthening an existing first major surface, abrading the existing first major surface to form an intermediate first major surface, and etching the intermediate first major surface to form the first major surface of the anti-sparkle substrate.

Abstract: A method of reworking lithium containing ion exchanged glass-based articles is provided. The method includes a reverse ion exchange process that returns the glass-based article to approximately the composition of the glass from which the glass-based article was produced, before being subjected to ion exchange.

Abstract: Glass-based articles comprise: a glass-based substrate having opposing first and second surfaces defining a substrate thickness (t); a stress profile comprising: a compressive stress region extending from the first surface to a depth of compression (DOC), the DOC located at 0.04•t or deeper; and a central tension region. An alkali metal oxide is present in the central tension region. A first metal oxide whose metal has the same or smaller atomic radius as the metal of the alkali metal oxide, and a second metal oxide whose metal has a larger atomic radius than the metal of the alkali metal oxide are both present in independent concentrations that vary within at least a portion of the compressive stress region. The glass-based substrates are exposed to a multi-step ion exchange process including a first treatment of doping with ions smaller than the alkali metal oxide of the pre-fabricated glass-based substrate; and a second treatment of strengthening with larger ions to enable superior stress profile attributes. The first treatment may occur at temperatures within 300° C. of the strain point of the glass-based substrate.

Abstract: Methods of manufacturing a glass-based article include exposing a glass-based substrate to a molten salt bath including a first salt and a second salt. In aspects, the first salt includes a metal ion that has a larger ionic radii than an alkali metal of the glass-based substrate and a first anion, and the second salt dissolved in the molten salt bath includes the same metal ion as the first salt and a second anion different from the first anion. In aspects, the first salt is potassium nitrate, the second salt is potassium carbonate, and a concentration of the potassium carbonate remains at or below its solubility limit in the molten salt bath.

Abstract: Methods of enhanced ion exchange (IOX) include exposing a substrate to a bath mixture that includes a second salt dissolved in a first salt, the second salt includes the same metal ion as the first salt with an anion different from the first salt. The first salts are conventional nitrate salts into which one or more second salts, for example, carbonate, sulfate, chloride, fluorine, borate, or phosphate salts are dissolved. The second salts remain at or below their solubility limits in the first salts. Any poisoning ions remain at or below their solubility limits in the bath mixture. Glass-based articles made therefrom and electronic devices incorporating the glass-based articles are also disclosed.

Abstract: A method of making strengthened articles that includes: providing articles comprising ion-exchangeable alkali metal ions and first and second primary surfaces; providing a bath comprising ion-exchanging alkali metal ions larger in size than the ion-exchangeable ions; and submersing the articles in the bath at a first ion-exchange temperature and duration to form strengthened articles. Each strengthened article comprises a compressive stress region. Further, the exchange rate of the ion-exchanging alkali metal ions is higher into the first primary surface than into the second primary surface. In addition, the submersing step is conducted such that a predetermined gap is maintained between the first primary surface of each of the articles.
