[Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to a glass composition that has been improved in order to obtain heat-treated glass that is optimal for architectural window glass such as high-rise buildings or large-area openings.
It may be of normal thickness, but it should be 6 mm or more, especially 8 mm.
This is a glass composition that is effective for glass plates thicker than mm. More specifically, the breaking strength has been increased to a level that does not reach the strength of ordinary tempered glass, but does not result in fine-grained shattering, and has improved various pressure and heat resistance, making it difficult to break, and even if it does break, it will not break easily if dropped. This makes it easier to obtain glass products that are less likely to occur and improve safety, so they can be used in a variety of interior materials, furniture, cooking utensils, etc., in addition to architectural window glass.
It can also be widely used for glass tableware, glass bottles, etc. [Conventional technology] Glass has good transparency, weather resistance, etc., and is also cheaper than other materials, so it is widely used in architectural window glass and other applications. Glass is sometimes used, but as the number of high-rise buildings continues to increase year by year, there is an urgent need to further improve its safety. That is, it has become necessary to increase the breaking strength of high-rise and large-area window glasses, such as improving wind pressure resistance and heat resistance. Furthermore, it is desired that the window be difficult to protrude from the window frame so that even if it breaks, the pieces will not fall from a high place. However, using regular thermoset glass increases the breaking strength, but it breaks into small pieces when shattered, which is a problem. Chemically strengthened glass has a high breaking strength, and when it breaks, it breaks into pieces similar to raw glass. However, the chemical strengthening process requires a lot of time, which increases the production cost, and the compressive stress layer is thin, so if it is damaged for some reason, the damaged area will be destroyed by the raw board. There was a problem that the strength was only about the same as that of the conventional one. Therefore, there is known a glass having a predetermined degree of reinforcement obtained by lowering the degree of cooling using the conventional air cooling method. In other words, in addition to making the surface compressive stress smaller than that of conventional heat-strengthened glass, we have also made the internal tensile stress smaller, so that even when it is shattered, it will not break into small pieces like conventional heat-strengthened glass. It has been proposed that For example, Tokkosho
Publication No. 59-25734 discloses that after heating a glass plate with a thickness of 10 to 15 mm to 600 to 660°C, the surface of the glass plate is
By blowing hot air at 300℃, the cooling rate of the glass plate is slower than that of natural cooling in the atmosphere, and the glass plate is cooled to below the strain point temperature of the glass plate, and the central tensile stress σt of this treated glass plate is 85 to 200 kg. / cm2 , and the ratio of the surface compressive stress σc to the central tensile stress σt is σt/σc
A method of controlling the quenching gas flow to be in the range of 1.5 to 2.0 was started, and Japanese Patent Publication No. 61-40608 describes a glass sheet strengthening method and a strengthened glass sheet made by this method. One localized gas stream is pulsed at a repetition rate related to the rate at which the glass sheet is advanced to the quenching station to create a distribution of areas of higher tempered glass interspersed with areas of toughened glass. It is known that it is disclosed that a glass sheet is caused to have such an effect. Also, sheet glass and float glass
It is a soda lime glass whose main components are SiO 2 , Al 2 O 3 , CaO, MgO, Na 2 O, and K 2 O. It is heated to near its softening point and then rapidly cooled with air from the surface. Tempered glass is made using a thermal strengthening method. For example, Japanese Patent Publication No. 57-7574 discloses a method for manufacturing sheet glass and float glass.
SiO2 in weight percent as its composition ranges from 70 to
73.3, Na2O15.5 ~19.0, CaO5.5~7.7, MgO3.5~
4.9, Al2O3 0.1 ~1.5, Fe2O3 0.03 ~0.7, K2O0 ~
0.5, SO3 0.2-0.5, SiO2 , Na2O , CaO,
The proportion of MgO, Al 2 O 3 , Fe 2 O 3 and SO 3 is at least 98% by weight of the total composition, and CaO/MgO
The weight ratio of Na2O /CaO ranges from 1.3 to 1.9.
A flat glass sheet with a weight ratio of 2.0 to 3.2 is described. Furthermore, JP-A-46-1185 discloses an improved thermal strengthening treatment method, in which the sheet glass is cooled from a temperature above its deformation point to a low temperature by contact with a cooling fluid. and finally cooling it to room temperature.
SiO 2 at least 60% by weight, alkaline earth metal oxide at least 5% by weight, K 2 O + Na 2 O total 5-25
% content, and the temperature difference between the softening point and deformation point of the glass is within 177℃, or the change in specific volume when rapidly cooled glass is heated between the deformation point and the softening point is as follows. It has been described and known that the change is greater than that which occurs when a float glass is heated from its deformation point to its softening point. [Problems to be Solved by the Invention] As mentioned above, conventional glass plates with a thickness of 6 mm or more, for example, suffer from excessive temporary strain occurring inside the glass, resulting in an excessively high degree of reinforcement or cracking. In order to prevent this, the slow cooling conditions have to be variously limited, resulting in longer production times, poor productivity, and high costs. For example, although the above-mentioned heat treatment method disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 59-25734 is attempted to solve the problem, the treatment temperature is as high as 600 to 660°C, and the glass plate has a relatively large area, resulting in deformation and surface roughness. In addition, the cooling air
There was also the problem that a heating device was required to heat the process to 50-300°C. Furthermore, the above-mentioned Unexamined Patent Publication No. 61-
In the method of Publication No. 40608, during cooling, pulsed air is passed through, for example, one pulsation every 0.2 seconds, and the retention time of each pulsation is 0.1 sec, which is an extremely short process to achieve reinforcement without generating sharp edges. However, even if the stress distribution in specific parts of the tempered glass could be changed, there were still problems in obtaining a glass sheet with a predetermined degree of reinforcement. Furthermore, although the glass component composition described in the above-mentioned Japanese Patent Publication No. 57-7574 provides good moldability, the cost of its raw materials is also high.
As described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 1185-1985,
With normal float glass component composition, it is difficult to keep the temperature difference between the softening point and the deformation point within 177℃.
It is essential to selectively add B 2 O 3 and/or TiO 2 , which increases the cost of raw materials. It was difficult to use it as a glass composition for its strength. [Means for Solving the Problems] The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned drawbacks of the conventional glass. In order to have a high thermal conductivity and also take into account viscosity, we have created a unique composition of ingredients.
In particular, the objective is to provide a glass composition that has sufficient weather resistance, does not break into small pieces when broken, and is likely to have a strength approximately 1.5 to 2.5 times that of raw plate glass. That is, the present invention has a weight percentage of SiO 2 72.7~
74.2%, Al2O3 1.6 ~3.0%, CaO6.5~8.5%,
MgO2.0~4.0%, Na2O10.5 ~13.0%, K2O0.5 ~
Consists of 3.0% oxide component, the sum of these components is 97% or more, and SiO 2 + Al 2 O 3 74.7 ~
76.7%, CaO+MgO9.0~12.0%, Na2O + K2
Consists of a composition range of O12.0-14.5% and
10 The viscosity temperature at 10 poise is 635-665℃ and
The viscosity temperature at 10 13 poise is 545-565℃,
The present invention also provides an improved glass composition characterized in that the temperature difference between the two is 95 to 103°C. Here, the SiO2 component is 72.7-74.2% in weight percentage
The reason for this is that if it is less than 72.7%, it will easily break into small pieces when broken, and it will be difficult to obtain the specified degree of reinforcement, which is about 1.5 to 2.5 times as strong as raw glass.
If it exceeds 74.2%, it becomes difficult to melt.
The reason why the Al 2 O 3 component was set at 1.6 to 3.0% in weight percentage was
If it is less than 1.6, the weather resistance will decrease and the surface will easily become stained, causing practical problems.
If it exceeds 3%, devitrification tends to occur and production becomes difficult.
The reason for setting it at ~8.5% is that if it is less than 6.5%, it will be insufficient as a flux and the melting temperature will rise, and the flow temperature will not be lowered, making it difficult to manufacture.If it exceeds 8.5%, devitrification will occur easily, and Therefore, the MgO component is set at 2.0 to 4.0% by weight.If it is less than 2.0%, the melting temperature will increase and the operating range will be narrowed, making it difficult to manufacture.If it exceeds 4.0%, the specified It becomes difficult to obtain a degree of hardening of
The reason why it is set at 10.5 to 13.0% is that if it is less than 10.5%, devitrification tends to occur, which narrows the operating range and makes it difficult to manufacture.If it exceeds 13.0%, weather resistance decreases and surface stains are likely to occur. In addition to causing practical problems, it becomes difficult to obtain a specified degree of reinforcement, and it also leads to soaring.The K 2 O component of 0.5 to 3.0% by weight is 0.5%. If it is less than 3.0%, it becomes difficult to melt, and if it exceeds 3.0%, weather resistance decreases and costs increase. Also, SiO 2 , Al 2 O 3 , CaO, MgO, Na 2 O,
The reason why the total amount of K 2 O components is set to 97.0% or more by weight is to control the amount of trace components such as FeO 2 O 3 , TiO 2 , SO 3 to not exceed 3%, and FeO Regarding 2 O 3 , for example, in transparent glass, it is preferable to have a weight percentage of around 0.1%; if it is too much or too little, the color tone will change, and it will also be affected by the refining of the raw material. Additionally, SiO2
+Al 2 O 3 was set to 74.7 to 76.7% by weight because
If it is less than 74.7%, weather resistance decreases and it is difficult to obtain the specified degree of reinforcement, and if it exceeds 76.7%, it becomes difficult to melt.
+MgO was set to 9.0 to 12.0% by weight because
CaO and MgO components are used to lower the melting temperature, and if it is less than 9.0%, it becomes difficult to melt, and if it exceeds 12.0%, it tends to devitrify, making it difficult to manufacture . The reason for setting it at 12.0 to 14.5% is that if it is less than 12.0%, it will be difficult to melt, devitrification will occur easily, the working temperature range will be narrow, and manufacturing will be difficult.
If it exceeds 14.5%, the weather resistance decreases, causing practical problems, and the cost also increases. In addition, 10 10 poise and viscosity temperature
The reason I picked up 10-13 poise is that 10-10 poise is a general guideline for the start of cooling in heat-treated glass, and 10-13 poise effectively reduces the viscous flow of heat-treated glass and has no effect on the degree of strengthening. This is because the viscosity temperature, which is 10 to 10 poise, is 635 to 665.
℃ and 10 13 poise viscosity temperature is 545-565℃
It is important that the temperature difference between the two be between 95 and 103 degrees Celsius.If the temperature is outside this temperature range, it will be difficult to obtain the desired degree of reinforcement, and the weather resistance will also deteriorate.
Problems arise in at least one of devitrification, cost, and the like. [Function] As mentioned above, the improved glass composition of the present invention, that is, by combining specific composition ranges of each oxide component, and by creating a composition that also takes into account a specific viscosity temperature, weather resistance can be improved. A glass that takes into account properties such as properties, devitrification, cost, and meltability, and makes it possible to easily obtain a predetermined degree of reinforcement in addition to the properties of conventional float glass, without changing the manufacturing conditions. It is. [Examples] Examples of the present invention will be described below. Examples 1 to 8 Glasses are made of specially selected silica sand (manufactured by Kyoritsu Ceramics) and primary reagents Al 2 O 3 , Fe 2 O 3 , CaCO 3 , MgCO 3 , Na 2
CO 3 and KNO 3 are weighed and mixed to have the desired target composition, and the mixed raw materials are placed in a crucible and melted and vitrified in an electric furnace maintained at about 1480°C for about 3 hours.
Further, for homogenization and clearing, the glass was kept at 1440-1450℃ for 2 hours, poured into a mold, cut into glass plates with a size of 150 mm x 150 mm and a thickness of 8.0 mm, and ground and polished. did. A wet analysis based on JISR-3101 was performed on the prepared sample, and the values shown in each example in Table 1 were obtained. The viscosity curve was measured by the bending arm method regarding the viscosity temperature, and 10 10 poise and 10 13 poise were measured.
The temperature of the poise was determined, and the values shown in each example in Table 2 were obtained. For confirmation, the strain point was measured using the Lilly method and the softening point was measured using the Littleton method, and the temperature difference between the softening point and the strain point of the glass was approximately in the range of 220 to 60°C. Regarding devitrification, the sample was held at a predetermined temperature for 2 hours, then rapidly cooled, and examined under a microscope for the presence of crystals. After heating a glass plate of the above size and thickness to 630°C, the heat transfer coefficient was 60Kcal/m 2 . hr.℃ air 2
A sample for fracture strength investigation was prepared by cooling intermittently with a cycle of spraying for 2 seconds and stopping spraying for 2 seconds. When the fracture strength of these five samples was compared with that of raw glass, the average value of the fracture strength ratio was
The increase was 1.6 to 2.2 times. The results are shown in Table 2. Comparative Examples 1 to 6 Glass plates and their viscosity temperature, devitrification property, weather resistance, etc. were carried out in the same manner as in the examples, and the results are shown in Tables 1 and 2 as in the examples.
