Method for making multi-layer laminated bodies
Abstract
Abstract THIS INVENTION RELATES TO HIGH STRENGTH GLASS, GLASSCERAMIC, OR GLASS AND GLASS-CERAMIC LAMINATED ARTICLES WHICH ARE PRODUCED THROUGH A CONTINUOUS HOT-FORMING PROCESS WHEREIN GLASS BATCHES ARE MELTED FOR THE INDIVIDUAL LAMINAE AND THESE LAMINAE ARE ESSENTIALLY SIMULTANEOUSLY FUSED TOGETHER AND SHAPED INTO A LAMINATED STRUCTURE OF A DESIRED CONFIGURATION. WHERE A GLASS-CERAMIC LAMINA IS SOUGHT, THE INITIALLY-FORMED LAMINATED GLASS ARTICLE IS SUBSEQUENTLY HEAT TREATED IN A PARTICULARLY-DEFINED MANNER TO CAUSE THE GLASS TO CRYSTALLIZE IN SITU. THE PRESENT INVENTION IS SPECIFICALLY CONCERNED WITH VISCOSITY RELATIONSHIPS OBTAINED IN THE MELTS UTILIZED IN FORMING THE INDIVIDUAL LAMINAE.
