Chemically-strengthened Glass is glass that has been treated with a chemical process after it was manufactured to render it stronger. The chemical process is called an ion-exchange reaction. During this process, glass is submerged in a bath of potassium salt or potassium nitrate at 300 degrees Celsius. The bath isn’t hot enough to melt the glass, but the relatively high temperature allows the potassium nitrate to react with the surface of the glass, causing ions to be exchanged and compacted, thereby strengthening the glass.
Sapphire is a single crystal of alumina with a unique lattice structure, wear resistance and wind erosion resistance, and its hardness is second only to diamond. It has excellent light transmittance, special conductivity and electrical insulation, and is an ideal substrate material for LEDs and SOS.
In recent years, sapphire has officially entered the consumer electronics market, and consumer electronics has opened up new market space for the sapphire industry.
