Glass composition for lamp, lamp, backlight unit and method for producing glass composition for lamp
View Patent ↗A glass composition which contains Ce ions as a component substantially comprises, in terms of oxides, SiO 2 : 55 to 75 wt %, B 2 O 3 : 6 to 25 wt %, CeO 2 : 0.01 to 5 wt %, SnO: 0.01 to 5 wt %, Al 2 O 3 : 0 to 10 wt %, Li 2 O: 0 to 10 wt %, Na 2 O: 0 to 10 wt %, K 2 O: 0 to 10 wt %, MgO: 0 to 5 wt %, CaO: 0 to 10 wt %, SrO: 0 to 10 wt %, BaO 0 to 10 wt %, TiO 2 : 0 to 1.0 wt %, Fe 2 O 3 : 0.01 to 0.2 wt %, Sb 2 O 3 : 0 to 5 wt %, ZrO 2 : 0.01 to 5 wt %. By having such constituents, the glass composition is capable of suppressing transmission of ultraviolet light and solarization, and thus the glass composition hardly suffers from initial coloring or coloring during lamp production.
