CERAMIC GLASS AND COOKTOP USING THE SAME

A ceramic glass for cooktop includes a glass material having an uneven layer formed on an upper surface of the glass material. A color difference meter value L of the ceramic glass ranges from 90 to 100. The glass material includes Li.sub.2O, Al.sub.2O.sub.3, and SiO.sub.2. A heat shock temperature of the ceramic glass ranges from 525° C. to 575° C. The ceramic glass implements a surface roughness Ra of 0.1 μm or less and surface roughness Rz of 0.8 μm or less through a polishing operation. The surface roughness Ra corresponds to an average length between at least one peak of the uneven layer and at least one valley of the uneven layer. The surface roughness Rz corresponds to a vertical distance between the at least one peak of the uneven layer and the at least one valley of the uneven layer.

Thermoformed cover glass for an electronic device

A property-enhanced cover sheet, and methods for forming a property-enhanced cover sheet, for a portable electronic device are disclosed. A property-enhanced cover sheet is formed by thermoforming a glass sheet into a specified contour shape while modifying one or more properties of the glass. Other property-enhanced sheets can be formed by layering two or more glass sheets having different material properties, and then thermoforming the layered sheets into a required contour shape. Property enhancement for a cover sheet includes, hardness, scratch resistance, strength, elasticity, texture and the like.
