摘要:
In order to provide a crystallized glass which can be shaped by the redraw forming and a method of manufacturing a crystallized glass article by the redraw forming, the crystallized glass contains precipitated crystals with a maximum grain size not greater than 5 µm and a glass phase at a ratio of 10 to 85 vol%, and has a softening point lower than a melting point of a predominant precipitated crystal, and a property such that crystallization does not progress even when heated at a temperature higher than the softening point. In order to manufacture the crystallized glass article formed by the redrawing, the above-described crystallized glass is preformed and then subjected to the drawing while being heated to a temperature higher than the softening point.
摘要:
A crystallized glass which can be redraw-molded and a process for producing a crystallized glass article by redraw-molding. In the crystallized glass, the maximum particle size of the deposited crystals is 5 mu m or below and the glass phase amounts to 10 to 85 % by volume. It has a softening point lower than the melting point of the main deposited crystals and its crystallization does not proceed substantially, even when it is heated to a temperature higher than the softening point. A redraw-molded crystallized glass article may be produced by premolding the above-mentioned crystallized glass and then orienting it while heating to a temperature higher than the softening point.
