Disclosed is an optical-filter-cell-array structure and a method of manufacturing the same. An optical filter which includes an optical filter layer for blocking light of a specific wavelength formed on an upper side or a lower side of a tempered glass substrate is provided in the form of a cell array. The method includes forming a sheet-cutting part according to the form of a cell array on a mother glass substrate, tempering the mother glass substrate so that a lateral side of the mother glass substrate is tempered through the sheet-cutting part while an upper side and a lower side of the mother glass substrate are tempered, and forming an optical filter layer on the upper side or the lower side of the mother glass substrate.

Electrolytes and electrolyte additives for energy storage devices comprising fluorinated cyclic compounds.

Methods for producing glass articles from laminated glass tubing include introducing the glass tubing to a converter. The glass tubing includes a core layer under tensile stress, an outer clad layer under, and an inner clad layer. The methods include forming a feature the glass article at a working end of the laminated glass tubing and separating a glass article from the working end of the laminated glass tubing, which may expose the core layer under tensile stress at the working end of the glass tubing. The method further comprises remediating the exposed portion of the core layer by completely enclosing the core layer in a clad layer. Systems for re-cladding the exposed portion of the core layer as well as glass articles made using the systems and methods are also disclosed.

A thin glass substrate, as well as a method and an apparatus are provided. The glass substrate has a glass having first and second main surfaces and elongated elevations on one of the main surfaces. The elevations rise in a normal direction, have a longitudinal extent that is greater than two times a transverse extent, and have a height, on average, that is less than 100 nm, and with a transverse extent of the elevation smaller than 40 mm. The method includes melting a glass, hot forming the glass, and adjusting a viscosity of the glass so that for the viscosity ?1 for a first stretch over a first distance of up to 1.5 m downstream of a flow rate control component and y1 indicating a second distance to a location immediately downstream the flow rate control component the equation lg ?1(y1)/dPa.Math.s=(lg ?01/dPa.Math.s+a1(y1)) applies.

Methods for manufacturing and/or reinforcing a carbon-containing glass material are disclosed. The method includes supplying a non-thermal equilibrium plasma including a plurality of positive charged gas particles and a plurality of ionized inert gas particles into a reaction chamber, and accelerating at least the plurality of positive charged gas particles through the reaction chamber based on application of an external electric potential to the non-thermal equilibrium plasma. The method includes bombarding a surface-to-air interface of the glass material with the accelerated positive charged gas particles and the ionized inert gas particles, and forming an interphase region in the glass material in response to the bombardment. The method includes forming a compressive stress layer in the glass material in response to the bombardment by at least the ionized inert gas particles. The compressive stress layer may be disposed between the interphase region and the surface-to-air interface of the carbon-containing glass material.

A method of making a transparent article includes mixing an oxygen source, a nitrogen source, a magnesium source, a silicon source and a calcium source. The oxygen source, the nitrogen source, the magnesium source, the silicon source, and the calcium source are milled and heated to form a molten oxynitride glass modified by calcium and magnesium. The molten oxynitride glass modified by calcium and magnesium is then cooled to form a transparent body having ballistic resistance with a level of performance satisfying Level IV of National Institute of Justice Standard 0108.01. Transparent articles having transparent bodies formed from the oxynitride glass are also described.

Novel formulations of inorganic, chemically bonded, phosphate alumino silicate sprayable coatings are disclosed. The disclosed coatings retain all the positive attributes of similar coatings disclosed in recent patents on corrosion and fire protection, and in addition, provide, superior surface toughness and smoothness, better abrasion and acid resistance, less erosion and longer durability with zero flame-spread coatings on wood surfaces. Being pore-free, water cannot penetrate into these coatings. Unlike the previous inorganic oxide-based phosphate coatings, the glassy phase in these coatings provides a translucent and dense surface. The component pastes are smoother to pump, do not settle or harden during storage and transport, and in addition, do not exhibit pozzalinic properties.
