Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

According to one embodiment, a glass article may include SiO2, Al2O3, Li2O and Na2O. The glass article may have a softening point less than or equal to about 810° C. The glass article may also have a high temperature CTE less than or equal to about 27×10−6/° C. The glass article may also be ion exchangeable such that the glass has a compressive stress greater than or equal to about 600 MPa and a depth of layer greater than or equal to about 25 μm after ion exchange in a salt bath comprising KNO3 at a temperature in a range from about 390° C. to about 450° C. for less than or equal to approximately 15 hours.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A glass composition comprising: from about 65 mol. % to about 71 mol. % SiO 2 ; from about 7 mol. % to about 12 mol. % Al 2 O 3 ; from about 0 mol. % to about 3 mol. % P 2 O 5 ; from about 1 mol. % to about 9 mol. % Li 2 O; less than 16 mol. % Na 2 O; and from about 0 mol. % to about 3 mol % K 2 O; from 0.8 mol. % to 10 mol. % of a divalent oxide, wherein the divalent oxide comprises MgO, 0 mol. % ZnO, and greater than 0 mol. % to 1 mol. % CaO, wherein: the glass composition has a softening point less than or equal to about 810° C.; and the glass composition has a high temperature CTE less than or equal to about 27−10 −6 ° C. 2. The glass composition of claim 1 , wherein the softening point is less than or equal to about 800° C. 3. The glass composition of claim 1 , wherein the high temperature CTE is less than or equal to about 25−10 −6 ° C. 4. The glass composition of claim 1 , wherein the sum of the concentration of Al 2 O 3 (mol. %) and the concentration of the divalent oxide (mol. %) is greater than or equal to about 10 mol. %. 5. The glass composition of claim 4 , further comprising B 2 O 3 in an amount less than or equal to about 1 mol. %. 6. The glass composition of claim 5 , further comprising from about 0.5 mol. % to about 2 mol. % ZrO 2 . 7. The glass composition of claim 1 , wherein MgO is present in an amount less than or equal to about 7 mol. %. 8. The glass composition of claim 1 comprising from about 2 mol. % to about 4 mol. % MgO.
