Abstract

A glass substrate for a display, which is formed of a glass having a light weight and having high refinability with decreasing environmental burdens, the glass comprising, by mass %, 50 to 70% of SiO 2 , 5 to 18% of B 2 O 3 , 10 to 25% of Al 2 O 3 , 0 to 10% of MgO, 0 to 20% of CaO, 0 to 20% of SrO, 0 to 10% of BaO, 5 to 20% of RO (in which R is at least one member selected from the group consisting of Mg, Ca, Sr and Ba), and over 0.20% but not more than 2.0% of R′ 2 O (in which R′ is at least one member selected from the group consisting of Li, Na and K), and containing, by mass %, 0.05 to 1.5% of oxide of metal that changes in valence number in a molten glass, and substantially containing none of As 2 O 3 , Sb 2 O 3 and PbO.

Claims (36)

1. A glass substrate for a display, which is formed of a glass comprising, by mass %,

50 to 70% of SiO 2 ,

5 to 18% of B 2 O 3 ,

10 to 25% of Al 2 O 3 ,

0 to 10% of MgO,

0 to 20% of CaO,

0 to 20% of SrO,

0 to 10% of BaO,

5 to 20% of RO (in which R is at least one member selected from the group consisting of Mg, Ca, Sr and Ba), and

0.20% or more but not more than 2.0% of R′ 2 O (in which R′ is at least one member selected from the group consisting of Li, Na and K),

the glass containing, by mass %, 0.05 to 1.5% of an oxide of a metal that changes in valence number in a molten glass, and

substantially containing none of As 2 O 3 , Sb 2 O 3 and PbO.

2. The glass substrate for a display as recited in claim 1 , wherein the glass comprises, by mass %,

55 to 65% of SiO 2 ,

10 to 14% of B 2 O 3 ,

15 to 19% of Al 2 O 3 ,

1 to 3% of MgO,

4 to 7% of CaO,

1 to 4% of SrO,

0 to 2% of BaO,

6 to 16% of RO in which R is at least one member selected from the group consisting of Mg, Ca, Sr and Ba, and

0.20% or more but not more than 2.0% of R′ 2 O in which R′ is at least one member selected from the group consisting of Li, Na and K,

the glass containing, by mass %, of 0.1 to 1.5% of an oxide of a metal that changes in valence number in a molten glass, and

substantially containing none of As 2 O 3 , Sb 2 O 3 and PbO.

3. The glass substrate for a display as recited in claim 1 , wherein the content of R 2 ′O is 0.20% or more but not more than 0.5%.

4. The glass substrate for a display as recited in claim 1 , wherein the glass contains K 2 O as R′ 2 O and substantially contains none of Li 2 O and Na 2 O.

5. The glass substrate for a display as recited in claim 1 , wherein the glass contains at least one member selected from the group consisting of tin oxide, iron oxide and cerium oxide as an oxide of a metal that changes in valence number in a molten glass.

6. The glass substrate for a display as recited in claim 5 , wherein the glass has a tin oxide content in the range of 0.01 to 0.5%.

7. The glass substrate for a display as recited in claim 5 , wherein the glass has an iron oxide content in the range of 0.05 to 0.2%.

8. The glass substrate for a display as recited in claim 5 , wherein the glass has a cerium oxide content in the range of 0 to 1.2%.

9. The glass substrate for a display as recited in claim 1 , wherein a content of sulfur oxide in the glass is limited to, as SO 3 , 0 mass % or more but less than 0.010 mass %.

10. The glass substrate for a display as recited in claim 1 , wherein a content of whole halide ion in the glass is limited to 0 mass % or more but less than 0.05 mass %.

11. The glass substrate for a display as recited in claim 1 , wherein the glass has a density of 2.49 g/cm 3 or less.

12. The glass substrate for a display as recited in claim 1 , wherein the glass has a linear thermal expansion coefficient of 28×10 −7 to 39×10 −7 /° C. at a temperature between 50° C. and 300° C.

13. A display having the glass substrate for a display as recited in claim 1 .

14. The display of claim 13 , which is a liquid crystal display.
