Q9: Specification Of Custom Gorilla Glass

Question

Accepted Answer

Gorilla Glass, a chemically strengthened aluminosilicate glass, is renowned for its exceptional impact resistance, scratch hardness, and durability, making it a top choice for displays, industrial equipment, and consumer electronics. FELIX GLASS provides fully custom Gorilla Glass solutions with flexible specifications tailored to customer needs.

1. Core Material and Strengthening Technology

Our custom Gorilla Glass is made of high-purity aluminosilicate glass, processed through a proprietary ion-exchange chemical strengthening process. During this process, the glass is immersed in a molten salt bath at high temperature, where larger potassium ions replace smaller sodium ions in the glass surface, creating a high-compression stress layer on the surface. This compression layer significantly improves the glass's impact resistance, scratch hardness, and bending strength, making it 5-10 times stronger than ordinary soda-lime glass.

2. Key Specification Parameters

We support a wide range of custom specifications to meet diverse application requirements:

- Thickness Range: 0.3mm to 6.0mm, with ultra-thin options (0.3-1.0mm) for portable electronics and thick options (3-6mm) for industrial equipment and architectural applications.

- Size and Shape: Custom sizes from 5mm to 1500mm, supporting standard shapes (round, square, rectangle) and complex special shapes (curved, irregular, drilled, notched) according to customer drawings.

- Compression Stress and Depth of Layer (DOL): Standard compression stress ≥ 800MPa, DOL ≥ 40μm; for high-demand applications, we can achieve compression stress ≥ 1000MPa and DOL ≥ 100μm, further enhancing strength.

- Optical Performance: High visible light transmittance ≥ 90%, low haze ≤ 1%, with optional AG/AR/AF coatings to enhance anti-glare, anti-reflection, and anti-fingerprint performance.

- Edge Processing: Custom edge grinding, chamfering, and polishing, with edge strength optimized to avoid breakage during assembly and use.

3. Performance Advantages

- Ultra-High Impact Resistance: Can withstand drops from 1.5-2 meters without cracking, far exceeding ordinary glass, making it ideal for mobile devices, tablets, and industrial touch screens.

- Excellent Scratch Hardness: Surface hardness reaches 9H (Mohs scale), resisting daily scratches from keys, sand, and other objects, maintaining long-term surface clarity.

- High Bending Strength: Suitable for curved glass forming, supporting hot-bending and cold-bending processes for automotive displays and foldable devices.

- Thermal Stability: Can withstand temperature changes from -40°C to 120°C, suitable for outdoor and high-temperature industrial environments.

4. Custom Processing and Coating Services

In addition to basic specifications, we provide a full range of deep processing and coating services for custom Gorilla Glass:

- Coating Options: AG (Anti-Glare), AR (Anti-Reflective), AF (Anti-Fingerprint), UV-resistant, and anti-corrosion coatings, with composite coating solutions for specific applications.

- Printing Services: Screen printing, digital printing, and ceramic ink printing for logos, patterns, and decorative lines on the glass surface or edge.

- Strengthening Optimization: Custom ion-exchange parameters to adjust compression stress and DOL according to customer performance requirements.

- Quality Inspection: 100% full inspection of strength, size, optical performance, and surface quality, with detailed inspection reports provided.

5. Application Scenarios

Our custom Gorilla Glass is widely used in:

- Consumer Electronics: Mobile phone screens, tablet displays, smart watches, and foldable devices.

- Automotive: Central control displays, instrument screens, head-up displays, and exterior sensor covers.

- Industrial: Industrial control panels, touch screens, and equipment protective covers.

- Medical: Medical device displays and surgical equipment protective glass.
