The stretching success rate is shown in Table 1.

  • Reference examples 1 to 3 An attempt was made to stretch the glass preform in the same manner as in Example 1 except that the heating temperature of the glass preform was as shown in Table 1. In any of the reference examples, the length of the glass preform did not increase, and the stretching success rate was as shown in Table 1. In Reference Examples 1 to 3 in which the heating temperature was 670 ° C. or lower, the viscosity of the glass preform was higher than that in Example 1. Therefore, in order to stretch the glass preform, the total mass of the second holder and the weight was used. It is probable that it was necessary to make it larger than 1 g.
  • Example 1 where the heating temperature was 690 ° C., which was 40 ° C. or more lower than the softening point of the glass preform, all five experiments were successful.

At the heating temperatures of Examples 1 and Reference Examples 1 to 3, the glass preform has a viscosity in the range of 109 to 10 12 dPa .

  • FIG. 8 shows the relationship between the width and the thickness of the obtained glass sheet based on the measurement results. From FIG. 8, it is possible to efficiently manufacture an ultrathin glass sheet by setting the width of the glass sheet within the range of 1 to 10 mm, 1 to 5 mm, 2 to 4 mm, or more than 2 mm and 4 mm or less. Shown. Further, as shown in FIG. 8, when the width of the glass sheet exceeds 2 mm, the smaller the width of the glass sheet, the thinner the glass sheet. On the other hand, when the width of the glass sheet was 2 mm or less, the smaller the width of the glass sheet, the thicker the glass sheet. The inventors consider this reason as follows.
  • the width and thickness values become smaller while the width to thickness ratio (aspect ratio) is maintained due to the elasticity of the glass.
  • the width becomes a predetermined value (here, about 2 mm) or less, the action of the surface tension to reduce the surface area of the glass exceeds the action of the elastic force to maintain the ratio of the width to the thickness. As a result, the thickness of the manufactured glass sheet increases.

That is, among the glass preforms having the same thickness but different widths, the larger the width of the glass preforms, the thinner the glass sheet can be manufactured. In other words, it was suggested that the width of the glass preform and the thickness of the glass sheet are inversely proportional. This was confirmed through Examples 9 to 12 below.
