The present invention relates to a glass composition that does not contain lead and has excellent processability and can be used in glass bulbs for annular and straight tube fluorescent lamps. When conventional glass for straight tube fluorescent lamps is applied to the bending process of annular fluorescent lamps, it has poor bending properties, and the movement of alkali metal oxides contained in the glass onto the glass surface causes significant damage to the phosphor. The function is deteriorated. Therefore, while soda lime glass is used for straight tube fluorescent lamps, PbO-containing glass has been used for ring tubes, but due to the high raw material costs and
There is a problem of toxicity, and lead-free glass with good workability is desired. On the other hand, the characteristics required for glass for circular fluorescent lamps include ease of bending, other characteristics required for glass for fluorescent lamps, and characteristics required for glass manufacturing. If we replace the properties of glass with the physical properties of glass, we get the following. WRI: 180℃ or higher α (0-300℃): 91 to 105 x 10 -7-1 Devtrification: Must not devitrify at a temperature of 104 poise Chemical durability: 0.9mg or less Here, What is WRI (Working Range Index)?
It indicates the width of the working temperature range and uses the temperature difference between the softening point and annealing point of the glass. α represents the coefficient of thermal expansion, which must be within the above range for sealing with the stem glass. Regarding devitrification, it should not devitrify at a temperature where the viscosity (η) of the glass is 10 4 poise (so-called working temperature). This is necessary to stabilize the glass tube molding operation. Chemical durability requires that the amount of R 2 O (Na 2 O, K 2 O, Li 2 O) eluted is 0.9 mg or less in an alkali elution test specified in JIS-R-3502. The present inventors have discovered a glass composition that satisfies the above physical properties without containing PbO. The glass composition of the present invention has a softening point of 640 to 710°C within the above-mentioned physical properties, and has good bending workability. The fluorescent lamp glass of the present invention is expressed in weight percentage: SiO 2 60-75% Al 2 O 3 1-4% Li 2 O 0-2% Na 2 O K 2 O 13-20% CaO MgO 4-13% BaO It has a composition of 0.5-3% ZnO 0.1-2% B 2 O 3 0-6% Sb 2 O 3 As 2 O 3 0-1%. Next, the reason for limiting the glass composition range will be explained. If the SiO 2 content is less than 60%, chemical durability and electrical insulation properties will deteriorate, and if it is more than 75%, melting and processing will be difficult and devitrification will likely occur.
When Al 2 O 3 is less than 1%, the chemical durability deteriorates, and when it exceeds 4%, the viscosity increases, making both melting and processing difficult. If Na 2 O + K 2 O is less than 13%, the coefficient of thermal expansion becomes too small, making sealing with stem glass difficult. If it exceeds 20%, the coefficient of thermal expansion will become too large, and furthermore, the electrical insulation will deteriorate. CaO and
MgO improves chemical durability and electrical insulation, but when the total amount exceeds 13%, the working temperature range becomes narrow and bending becomes difficult. BaO is an essential component for improving bending workability and chemical durability. If BaO is less than 0.5%, the working temperature range will be narrow, and if it exceeds 3%, devitrification during processing will become a problem. ZnO is an essential component for improving chemical durability and suppressing surface migration of alkali, which causes functional deterioration of the phosphor. 0.1
% or more, but if it exceeds 2%, the devitrification temperature rises rapidly and devitrification during processing becomes a problem. B 2 O 3 reduces high temperature viscosity, but 6%
If it exceeds 6%, scum is likely to be generated during melting, so it must be kept within 6%. Li2O is
It can be added to adjust the required physical properties, but 2
%, chemical durability deteriorates. In addition, the content should be small in order to avoid increasing raw material costs. In addition, 1% or less of Sb 2 O 3 and/or As 2 O 3 , which are usually added to glass, may be added as a fining agent. More preferable content ranges of the above components are as follows. SiO 2 63−72% by weight Al 2 O 3 1.5−3.5 〃 Li 2 O 0−1.5 〃 Na 2 O K 2 O 14−18 〃 CaO MgO 6−12 〃 BaO 0.5−2.5 〃 ZnO 0.1−1.5 〃 B 2 O 3 0-4 〃 Sb 2 O 3 As 2 O 3 0-0.7 〃 Example
