Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、フラットディスプレイ、特にプラズマディスプレイパネル(PDP)に用いるガラス基板に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
PDPは一般的に、基板ガラス上に金属電極、絶縁ペースト、リブペースト等を550〜600℃程度の最高温度で焼成後、対向板と周囲をフリットシールすることにより製造される。従来、このための基板ガラスとして建築用または自動車用として広く用いられるソーダライムガラスが一般的に用いられてきた。
【0003】
しかし、ソーダライムガラスのガラス転移点は530〜560℃であるため、上記の最高温度で熱処理を受けると基板ガラスが変形または収縮を起こし、寸法が著しく変化する。したがって、対向板との電極位置合わせを精度よく実現しがたいという課題があった。特に、生産性の高いベルト炉のような連続式の焼成炉を使用して製造を行う場合、焼成中にガラス板の先端と後端で温度差がつき、ガラス板が前後に非対称な寸法変化を起こすという問題があった。
【0004】
このガラス基板の熱変形または熱収縮の問題を解決するため、熱膨張係数がソーダライムガラスと近く、ガラス転移点、歪点が高いガラスが知られている(特開平3−40933、特開平7−257937)。このようなガラスを用いると、連続式の焼成炉でPDP製造の熱処理を行っても、ソーダライムガラスで問題となるような前後に非対称な寸法変化を起こしにくいため、高い精度でパネルを焼成しうる。
【0005】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかし、近年のPDPの大型化により、製造工程でのハンドリングがますます困難になってきている。特に、大型基板は自重により大きな曲げ応力を受けることが多いため、わずかな傷の存在が製造工程での割れにつながる問題がある。
また、すでに提案されている組成はいずれも比重が2.6を超え、部材の軽量化が困難である問題もある。
【0006】
本発明の目的は上記欠点を解決し、高いガラス転移点を有し、かつ50〜350℃の平均熱膨張係数がソーダライムガラスと同等であるとともに、傷がつきにくく製造工程で割れにくいガラス基板を提供することにある。

表より明らかなように、本発明によるガラス基板の脆さ指標値は、7400m-1/2以下であり、傷がつきにくい。熱膨張係数は80〜90×10-7/℃の範囲にあり、従来PDP用基板として用いられていたソーダライムガラスと同程度であるため、同種のフリット材料を採用できる。また、ガラス転移点はいずれも600℃以上であり、大型PDPの製造において、ガラスが変形したり収縮する等の問題が少ない。比重は2.6未満であり、部材の軽量化が容易である。
【0032】
一方、例13はガラス転移点Tg が550℃であるため、PDP製造工程でのガラスの熱変形が問題となる。例14〜18は脆さ指標値が7400m-1/2を超えるので、傷がつきやすく、製造工程中での割れ確率が大きい。また、例14〜18のガラス基板は比重が2.6以上であるので、部材の軽量化が困難である。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a glass substrate used for a flat display, particularly a plasma display panel (PDP).
[0002]
[Prior art]
A PDP is generally manufactured by baking a metal electrode, an insulating paste, a rib paste, or the like on a substrate glass at a maximum temperature of about 550 to 600 ° C., and then frit-sealing the counter plate and the periphery. Conventionally, soda lime glass, which is widely used for construction or automobiles, has been generally used as a substrate glass for this purpose.
[0003]
However, since the glass transition point of soda lime glass is 530 to 560 ° C., when subjected to the heat treatment at the above-mentioned maximum temperature, the substrate glass is deformed or contracted, and the dimensions are remarkably changed. Accordingly, there has been a problem that it is difficult to accurately achieve electrode alignment with the counter plate. In particular, when manufacturing using a continuous firing furnace such as a belt furnace with high productivity, there is a temperature difference between the front and rear ends of the glass plate during firing, and the glass plate is asymmetrically dimensionally changed back and forth. There was a problem of waking up.
[0004]
In order to solve the problem of thermal deformation or thermal contraction of the glass substrate, a glass having a thermal expansion coefficient close to that of soda lime glass and having a high glass transition point and strain point is known (Japanese Patent Laid-Open Nos. 3-40933 and 7). -257937). When such glass is used, even if heat treatment for PDP production is carried out in a continuous firing furnace, it is difficult to cause asymmetrical dimensional changes before and after that would cause problems with soda lime glass. sell.
[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, with the recent increase in size of PDPs, handling in the manufacturing process has become increasingly difficult. In particular, since a large substrate is often subjected to a large bending stress due to its own weight, there is a problem that the presence of a slight scratch leads to a crack in the manufacturing process.
Also, already exceeded even gravity Any composition proposed 2.6 is also lightweight difficult der Ru problems of members.
[0006]
An object of the present invention is to solve the above drawbacks, a high having a glass transition point, and with an average thermal expansion coefficient of 50 to 350 ° C. is equivalent to soda lime glass, hard glass substrate cracks in scratch per difficult manufacturing process Is to provide.

[0008]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The reasons for limiting the composition in the present invention are as follows.
SiO 2 is a component forming a glass skeleton. When the content is less than 56% by weight (hereinafter simply referred to as “%”), the heat resistance is inferior and the film is easily damaged. Preferably it is 60% or more. On the other hand, if it exceeds 72%, the thermal expansion coefficient becomes too small. Preferably it is 70% or less.
[0009]
Al 2 O 3 is added in an amount of 1% or more in order to increase the glass transition point and improve the heat resistance. Preferably it is 2% or more. On the other hand, if it is 14% or more, the meltability of the glass tends to decrease. Preferably it is 10% or less, Most preferably, it is 8% or less.
[0010]
MgO is not essential, but it can be added to lower the viscosity during melting of the glass and promote melting. In order to ensure the effect, it is preferable to contain 1% or more, particularly 3% or more. On the other hand, if the content exceeds 9%, the coefficient of thermal expansion becomes large, the devitrification temperature tends to be high, and it tends to be easily damaged. Preferably it is 6% or less.
[0011]
CaO is added in an amount of 0.5% or more in order to lower the viscosity of the glass during melting and to promote melting. It is preferable to contain 2% or more, particularly 3% or more. On the other hand, if the content exceeds 11%, the coefficient of thermal expansion becomes large, the devitrification temperature tends to be high, and it tends to be easily damaged. Preferably it is 9% or less, Most preferably, it is 8% or less.
[0012]
Although SrO is not an essential component, it can be added because it has the effect of lowering the viscosity during melting of glass and promoting melting. On the other hand, if it exceeds 4%, it may be easily damaged. Preferably it is 2% or less, particularly preferably 1% or less.
[0013]
BaO is not an essential component, but it can be added because it has the effect of lowering the viscosity during glass melting and promoting melting. On the other hand, if it exceeds 3%, it tends to be easily damaged. Preferably it is 2% or less, particularly preferably 1% or less.
[0014]
The total amount of MgO, CaO, SrO, and BaO is contained in an amount of 6% or more in order to lower the viscosity during melting of the glass and facilitate melting. It is preferable to contain 8% or more. On the other hand, if it is 14% or more, the glass tends to be damaged, and the devitrification temperature tends to increase. Preferably it is 13% or less.
[0015]
Na 2 O is not an essential component, but may be contained because it has an effect of reducing the viscosity during melting of glass and promoting melting. In order to ensure the effect, it is preferable to contain 1% or more. On the other hand, if it exceeds 9%, the thermal expansion coefficient becomes too large, the chemical durability is lowered, and the electric resistance may be reduced. Preferably it is 6% or less, More preferably, it is 4% or less, Most preferably, it is 3% or less.
[0016]
Since K 2 O has the same effect as Na 2 O, it is contained in an amount of 6% or more. Preferably it is 10% or more, More preferably, it is 12% or more. On the other hand, if it exceeds 20%, the thermal expansion coefficient becomes too large, and the chemical durability tends to decrease. Preferably it is 18% or less, particularly preferably 16% or less.
[0017]
Na 2 O and K 2 O are contained in a total amount of 6% or more in order to lower the viscosity during melting of the glass and facilitate melting. Preferably it is 10% or more, Most preferably, it is 12% or more. On the other hand, if it exceeds 20%, the chemical durability is lowered and the electric resistance may be reduced. Preferably it is 18% or less, particularly preferably 16% or less.
[0018]
In addition to the above components, the glass according to the present invention improves As 2 O 3 , Sb 2 O 3 , P 2 O 5 , F, and Cl in a total amount of 2% by weight or less in order to improve the meltability, clarity and formability of the glass. Can be added. In order to improve the chemical durability of the glass, La 2 O 3 , TiO 2 , and SnO 2 can be added in a total amount of 5% by weight or less. Here, As 2 O 3 and Sb 2 O 3 facilitate recycling, and P 2 O 5 , F, and Cl maintain a high glass transition point. Therefore, each content is preferably 0.5% or less. More preferably, it is not substantially contained, i.e. does not exceed the degree of impurities.
[0019]
Furthermore, the color tone of the glass can be adjusted by adding a colorant such as Fe 2 O 3 , CoO, NiO, Se, or Nd 2 O 3 . The total content of the colorant is preferably 1% by weight or less.
Further, although a small amount of ZrO 2 can be contained in order to increase the glass transition point, the glass tends to be easily damaged, so the ZrO 2 content is less than 0.5%. Preferably, it is not substantially contained beyond the level of impurities.
[0020]
Furthermore, B 2 O 3 can be added to improve the meltability. However, excessive addition reduces the thermal expansion coefficient, so it is preferably less than 1.5% by weight, more preferably not substantially contained.
In addition, ZnO may be added to improve the meltability, but if it is added in an amount of 5% or more, it may be reduced in the float bath to cause a defect.
Further, Li 2 O may be added to improve the meltability, but if added at 3% or more, the glass transition point may be lowered.
[0021]
The glass transition point of the glass thus obtained is preferably 600 ° C. or higher, more preferably 625 ° C. or higher. The thermal expansion coefficient of the glass obtained by the present invention is preferably in the range of 75 × 10 −7 to 90 × 10 −7 / ° C., more preferably in the range of 80 × 10 −7 to 90 × 10 −7 / ° C. is there.
[0022]
In particular, the glass according to the present invention preferably has a brittleness index value of 7400 m −1/2 or less, more preferably 7300 m −1/2 or less.
In the present invention, the brittleness index value B proposed by Lorne et al. Is used as the brittleness index value of the glass (BRLawn and DBMarshall, J. Am. Ceram. Soc., 62 [7-8] 347- 350 (1979)). Here, fragility index value B is defined from Vickers hardness H V and fracture toughness value K C of the material by the equation (1).
B = H V / K C (1)
[0023]
The glass of the present invention preferably has a specific gravity of less than 2.6, more preferably 2.55 or less, particularly preferably 2.5 or less.
[0024]
The glass according to the present invention is suitable as a substrate for PDP. The spectral transmittance is preferably 85% or more in the range of 425 to 475 nm, 510 to 560 nm, and 600 to 650 nm. This is because light emission in these wavelength ranges can be efficiently used for display.
[0025]
The glass substrate of the present invention can be produced, for example, by the following method. That is, normally used raw materials for each component are blended so as to become target components, which are continuously charged into a melting furnace and heated to 1500 to 1600 ° C. for melting. The molten glass is formed into a predetermined plate thickness by a float method, and is cooled and then cut to obtain a transparent glass substrate.
[0026]
【Example】
Tables 1 to 3 show experimental examples related to the present invention.
The raw material of each component was prepared so that it might become a target composition, it heated to 1550-1650 degreeC using the platinum crucible, and it melted | melted over 4 to 5 hours. In melting, a platinum stirrer was inserted and stirred for 2 hours to homogenize the glass. The glass thus obtained was measured for brittleness index value B, glass transition point T g , thermal expansion coefficient α, specific gravity ρ of the glass and shown in Tables 1 to 3 together with the glass composition. Examples 1 to 12 are examples, and examples 13 to 18 are comparative examples.
In this experimental example, each physical property is measured as follows.
[0027]
Brittleness index value B (unit: m −1/2 ):
A major problem in applying the brittleness index to glass is that the fracture toughness value K C is difficult to accurately evaluate. However, as a result of studying several methods, the present inventor has quantitatively determined the brittleness from the relationship between the size of the indenter mark remaining on the glass surface when the Vickers indenter is pushed in and the length of the crack generated from the four corners of the mark. I have found that I can be evaluated. The relationship is defined by equation (2). Here, P is the indentation load of the Vickers indenter, and a and c are the diagonal length of the Vickers indentation and the length of the crack generated from the four corners (the total length of two symmetrical cracks including the indenter trace), respectively. .
c / a = 0.0056B 2/3 P 1/6 (2)
The brittleness index value is evaluated by using the dimensions of Vickers indentation and formula (2) which are driven into the surfaces of various glasses.
[0028]
Thermal expansion coefficient α (unit: × 10 -7 / ° C):
A differential thermal dilatometer is used to measure the elongation of the glass when the temperature is raised from room temperature at a rate of 5 ° C./min using quartz glass as a reference sample. The measurement was performed up to a temperature (bending point) at which the glass was softened and elongation was no longer observed, and an average thermal expansion coefficient of 50 to 350 ° C. was calculated.
[0029]
Glass transition point T g (unit: ° C):
The bending point in the thermal expansion curve was taken as the glass transition point.
[0030]
Specific gravity ρ:
About 20 g of glass lump containing no foam is measured by the Archimedes method.

As is clear from the table, the brittleness index value of the glass substrate according to the present invention is 7400 m −1/2 or less, and is hardly scratched. The thermal expansion coefficient is in the range of 80 to 90 × 10 −7 / ° C., which is similar to soda lime glass conventionally used as a substrate for PDP, so the same kind of frit material can be adopted. In addition, the glass transition point is 600 ° C. or more, and there are few problems such as deformation or shrinkage of the glass in the production of a large PDP. Specific gravity is less than 2.6, and the weight reduction of a member is easy.
[0032]
On the other hand, Example 13 for the glass transition temperature T g is 550 ° C., thermal deformation of the glass in the PDP manufacturing process is a problem. In Examples 14 to 18, since the brittleness index value exceeds 7400 m −1/2 , the sample is easily scratched and has a high probability of cracking in the manufacturing process. Moreover, since the specific gravity of the glass substrate of Examples 14-18 is 2.6 or more, the weight reduction of a member is difficult.

【The invention's effect】
The glass according to the present invention is not easily scratched, has high heat resistance, and has a thermal expansion coefficient equivalent to that of soda lime glass, and thus is suitable for applications requiring such characteristics as a substrate for PDP. Further, since the specific gravity is small, it is easy to reduce the weight of the member.
