Corning Sells Glass to Samsung

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
Specialty glass maker Corning Inc. announced that its Gorilla™ glass was selected as the protective cover glass for Samsung Electronics’ UltraTouch mobile phones. Gorilla glass, available in thicknesses ranging from 0.5 to 2 mm, is designed so that, after undergoing a chemical strengthening process, it provides device manufacturers with a highly durable, scratch-resistant cover glass for touch screens and flat portable displays. It is an environmentally friendly aluminosilicate glass produced with Corning’s proprietary fusion draw process, which enables the production of uniform thin...Read full article

    glass
    A noncrystalline, inorganic mixture of various metallic oxides fused by heating with glassifiers such as silica, or boric or phosphoric oxides. Common window or bottle glass is a mixture of soda, lime and sand, melted and cast, rolled or blown to shape. Most glasses are transparent in the visible spectrum and up to about 2.5 µm in the infrared, but some are opaque such as natural obsidian; these are, nevertheless, useful as mirror blanks. Traces of some elements such as cobalt, copper and...
