Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The disclosure relates to highly temperable colored glass compositions. The colored glass compositions have high coefficients of thermal expansion and high Young's moduli that advantageously absorb in the ultraviolet and/or blue wavelength ranges. Methods of making such glasses are also provided.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A glass, comprising: 55-75 mol % SiO 2 ; 5-10 mol % Al 2 O 3 ; greater than 5 to 10 mol % MgO; 5-15 mol % CaO; 8-15 mol % alkali metal oxides, wherein the alkali metal oxides comprise at least one of Li 2 O, Na 2 O, and K 2 O; 0-15 mol % Na 2 O; 0-15 mol % K 2 O; >1-4 mol % TiO 2 ; and >0-2 mol % CeO 2 , Ho 2 O 3 , CuO, NiO, or combinations thereof; wherein the glass exhibits a color presented in SCE color space coordinates with the following values: a*=from about −10 to about 30; b*=from about 0 to about 30; and L*>83. 2. The glass of claim 1 , wherein the glass composition has a low temperature coefficient of thermal expansion (LTCTE) measured from 25° C. to 300° C. and a high temperature coefficient of thermal expansion (HTCTE) measured at temperature above glass transition region, and wherein the sum of the LTCTE and the HTCTE is 350×10 −7 /° C. or greater. 3. The glass of claim 2 , wherein sum of the LTCTE and the HTCTE is 400×10 −7 /° C. or greater. 4. The glass of claim 1 , wherein the glass has temperability equal to or greater than 0.80. 5. The glass of claim 4 , wherein the temperability is equal to or greater than 0.90. 6. The glass of claim 1 , further comprising greater than 1.5 to 6 mol % B 2 O 3 . 7. A housing of a consumer electronic product comprising the glass of claim 1 . 8. A glass, comprising: 55-75 mol % SiO 2 ; 5-10 mol % Al 2 O 3 ; greater than 5 to 10 mol % MgO; 5-15 mol % CaO; 8-15 mol % alkali metal oxides, wherein the alkali metal oxides comprise at least one of Li 2 O, Na 2 O, and K 2 O; 0-15 mol % Na 2 O; 0-15 mol % K 2 O; >1-4 mol % TiO 2 ; and >0 to 4 mol % Fe 2 O 3 , V 2 O 5 , Cr 2 O 3 , MnO 2 , CeO 2 , NiO, ZnO, CuO, Co 3 O 4 , rare earth oxides, and combinations thereof; wherein the glass exhibits a color presented in SCE color space coordinates with the following values: a*=from about −10 to about 30; b*=from about 0 to about 30; and L*>83. 9. The glass of claim 8 , wherein the glass composition has a low temperature coefficient of thermal expansion (LTCTE) measured from 25° C. to 300° C. and a high temperature coefficient of thermal expansion (HTCTE) measured at temperature above glass transition region, and wherein the sum of the LTCTE and the HTCTE is 350×10 −7 /° C. or greater. 10. The glass of claim 9 , wherein sum of the LTCTE and the HTCTE is 400×10 −7 /° C. or greater. 11. The glass of claim 8 , wherein the glass has temperability equal to or greater than 0.80. 12. The glass of claim 11 , wherein the temperability is equal to or greater than 0.90. 13. The glass of claim 8 , further comprising greater than 1.5 to 6 mol % B 2 O 3 . 14. A housing of a consumer electronic product comprising the glass of claim 8 . 15. A glass, comprising: 55-75 mol % SiO 2 ; 5-10 mol % Al 2 O 3 ; greater than 5 to 10 mol % MgO; 5-15 mol % CaO; 8-15 mol % alkali metal oxides, wherein the alkali metal oxides comprise at least one of Li 2 O, Na 2 O, and K 2 O; 0-15 mol % Na 2 O; 0-15 mol % K 2 O; >1-4 mol % TiO 2 ; and >0 to 4 mol % Fe 2 O 3 , V 2 O 5 , Cr 2 O 3 , MnO 2 , CeO 2 , NiO, ZnO, CuO, Co 3 O 4 , rare earth oxides, and combinations thereof; wherein the glass exhibits a color presented in SCE color space coordinates with the following value: L*>83. 16. The glass of claim 15 , wherein the glass composition has a low temperature coefficient of thermal expansion (LTCTE) measured from 25° C. to 300° C. and a high temperature coefficient of thermal expansion (HTCTE) measured at temperature above glass transition region, and wherein the sum of the LTCTE and the HTCTE is 350×10 −7 /° C. or greater. 17. The glass of claim 15 , wherein the glass has temperability equal to or greater than 0.80. 18. The glass of claim 17 , wherein the temperability is equal to or greater than 0.90. 19. The glass of claim 15 , further comprising greater than 1.5 to 6 mol % B 2 O 3 . 20. A housing of a consumer electronic product comprising the glass of claim 15 .
