LITHIUM CONTAINING GLASSES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18433727 titled 'LITHIUM CONTAINING GLASSES
The glass article described in the patent application contains a composition based on oxides, including 60 to 74 mol % SiO, 7 to 18 mol % AlO, less than or equal to 16 mol % BO, 0 to 6 mol % NaO, greater than or equal to 0.5 mol % SrO, and greater than or equal to 0.5 mol % of divalent cation oxides. The molar ratio of AlO:(RO+RO) is greater than or equal to 0.9, where RO represents the sum of alkali metal oxides in mol % and RO represents the sum of divalent cation oxides in mol %.
- Key Features and Innovation:
- Composition based on oxides with specific ranges for SiO, AlO, BO, NaO, SrO, and divalent cation oxides. - Molar ratio requirement for AlO:(RO+RO) to ensure specific properties of the glass article.
