<p>This invention is directed to the production of transparent glasses which can be chemically strengthened within a period of time not exceeding four hours to develop a surface compression layer having a sufficient depth to survive the Drop Ball Test after abrasion, the glasses consisting essentially, in weight percent, of <TABLE> Where desired, 3.5-5.5% Fe2O3 may be included to yield glasses which, at a thickness of 2 mm, will not transmit more than 1% of ultraviolet radiation at a wavelength of 380 nm. Where an ultraviolet absorbing glass exhibiting a neutral gray, fixed tint is desired, 0.02-0.035% Co3O4 and 0.08-0.2% NiO will be added. <IMAGE></p> |
