Abstract

A glass composition includes about 60 mol. % to about 80 mol. % SiO 2 , 0 mol. % to about 11 mol. % Al 2 O 3 , about 4.0 mol. % to about 12 mol. % B 2 O 3 , about 0.5 mol. % to about 20 mol. % of K 2 O, 0 mol. % to about 18.5 mol. % MgO, and 0 mol. % to about 1 mol. % SnO 2 . The glass composition has a range of CTE, which can be adjusted based on the composition, and can be used for display applications.
