The most common use is in smartphones, tablets, and wearables. Aluminosilicate glass is often used for these devices because of its superior scratch resistance and durability, which is essential for devices that are used intensively and carried around every day.
Modern vehicles increasingly feature touchscreens for navigation and infotainment. These screens require durable cover glass that can withstand vibrations, temperature changes, and frequent touch, for which chemically toughened glass types are often used.
Borosilicate glass is widely used in industrial and scientific environments. Its high resistance to thermal shock and chemicals makes it ideal for laboratory equipment, inspection windows, and equipment exposed to extreme conditions.
For less demanding applications such as windows, bottles, and simple display covers, cost-effective soda-lime glass is often used. Although less strong, it is an economical choice for mass production where extreme durability is not a priority.
This is the most common and inexpensive type of glass, composed of silicon dioxide, sodium oxide, and calcium oxide. Although it is not naturally extremely strong, it can be chemically toughened to improve durability for use in low-end electronics and household items.
Known for its exceptional hardness and scratch resistance thanks to the addition of aluminum oxide. This material can be made very thin without compromising strength, making it the standard choice for screens on premium smartphones, tablets, and other portable devices.
This glass is distinguished by its very low thermal expansion coefficient, which makes it extremely resistant to sudden temperature changes. It is also highly chemically resistant, making it ideal for laboratory glassware, kitchenware, and various industrial applications.
