Title:
FUSION-FORMABLE SODIUM-CONTAINING GLASS
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2019006677
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To provide a glass useful for low temperature applications, for instance, photovoltaic and OLED light applications.SOLUTION: Sodium-containing aluminosilicate and boroaluminosilicate glasses are described herein. The glasses can be used as substrates for photovoltaic devices, for example, thin film photovoltaic devices such as CIGS photovoltaic devices. These glasses can be characterized as having strain points of 540°C or more, thermal expansion coefficient of from 6.5 to 9.5 ppm/°C, as well as liquidus viscosities in excess of 50,000 poise. As such they are ideally suited for being formed into sheet by the fusion process.SELECTED DRAWING: None
