Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de production de verre et un verre chimiquement renforcé doté d'une résistance élevée et dans lequel une nuance souhaitée peut être obtenue. Ce verre chimiquement renforcé présente une résistance à la compression superficielle élevée et est obtenu en ce qu'après le traitement de renforcement chimique, le verre contenant un constituant colorant est refroidi via la région de température à partir de la température de traitement de renforcement chimique jusqu'à 300°C à une vitesse de refroidissement inférieure à 30°C/minute. En outre, ce verre chimiquement renforcé présentant une nuance souhaitée est obtenu par l'ajustement de la composition du verre sur base de la quantité de changement de nuance lors du refroidissement ou, après le traitement de renforcement chimique, par un traitement thermique supplémentaire à une température en-dessous de ladite température de traitement de renforcement chimique.
