Abstract

PURPOSE:To produce the subject glass having low softening point, high refractive index and low dispersion, at a relatively low temperature, by compounding B2O3, SiO2, La2O3, Gd2O3, Li2O, CaO and BaO at specific ratios. CONSTITUTION:A mixture is produced by compounding 10-35wt.% of B2O3, 5-30wt.% of SiO2, 0-35wt.% of La2O3, 0-35wt.% of Gd2O3 (La2O3+Gd2O3 is 20-40wt.%), 3-8wt.% of Li2O, 0-20wt.% of CaO and 0-25wt.% of BaO (CaO+BaO is 10-30wt.%). The mixture is optionally added with a small amount of As2O3 (defoaming and color-protection agent), melted at 1,100-1,300 deg.C, formed and cooled to obtain an optical glass for precision press forming having a deflection temperature (At) of <=550 deg.C, a refractive index (nd) of 1.65-1.70 and an Abbe number (rd) of 53.0-57.5.

Table 1 With known mold materials for precision press molding, problems such as oxidation of the mold material occur when the press molding temperature becomes high, making it difficult to maintain surface accuracy and making it unsuitable for mass production of lenses.Therefore, the glass to be pressed is In order to solve these problems, it is desirable to form the glass at the lowest possible temperature, the publications on press-molding glasses recommend phosphate-based glasses (JP-A-55-154343, JP-A-58-79839, JP-A-58-79839, JP-A-60'-122749) and fluoroborate glass (JP-A-59-146952) are known, in which #11M and boric acid are selected as glass-forming oxides.

However, the use of large amounts of acid and boric acid, although advantageous in lowering the temperature, causes a decrease in the chemical durability and weather resistance of the glass. Furthermore, the introduction of fluorine as seen in the above-mentioned publication is advantageous for lowering the temperature and reducing dispersion, but the stability during glass melting, the volatilization of fluorine at the press temperature tends to cause gaps in the mold material, environment, etc. Glass containing lead is also seen in the above patent, but like fluorine, if lead is included, ship debris will adhere to the mold material and cause interfins to maintain surface accuracy.
