Abstract

The present invention relates to an ultraviolet-absorbing glass article containing, as represented by mass % based on oxides, as a glass matrix composition: SiO 2 : 66 to 75%, Na 2 O: 10 to 20%, CaO: 5 to 15%, MgO: 0 to 6%, Al 2 O 3 : 0 to 5%, K 2 O: 0 to 5%, FeO: 0.2 to 1.2%, total iron as represented by Fe 2 O 3 : 2.4 to 4%, and TiO 2 : more than 0% and 1% or less, containing from 50 to 400 mass ppm of CoO, containing from 0 to 70 mass ppm of Se, containing from 0 to 800 mass ppm of Cr 2 O 3 , having a total content of CoO, Se and Cr 2 O 3 of less than 0.1 mass %, and having an ultraviolet transmittance (TUV) (ISO9050:2003) of 2% or less at a thickness of 3.5 mm.
