    Abstract: Aspects of this disclosure relate to a method for selecting an adhesive for bonding a cold-formed glass to a metal substrate and various cold-formed products. In one or more embodiments, the cold-formed products include a structural substrate comprising a curved surface and structural substrate coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), a cold-formed and curved glass substrate attached to the curved surface with an adhesive, the glass substrate comprising a glass substrate CTE, the structural substrate and adhesive forming a structural substrate/adhesive interface and the glass substrate and the adhesive forming a glass substrate/adhesive interface, wherein the glass substrate CTE and the structural substrate CTE differ, wherein the product withstands overlap shear failure as determined by modified test method ASTM D1002-10 at −40° C., 24° C., and 85° C. and tensile failure as determined by ASTM D897 at −40° C., 24° C., and 85° C. at one or both of the structural substrate/adhesive interface and the glass substrate/adhesive interface.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of forming a glass article in which a glass sheet is bent over a forming surface of a chuck. The forming surface defines a first shape including a curvature having a radius of curvature of 1000 mm or less, and the glass sheet includes a first major surface in contact with the forming surface. A frame is adhered to a second major surface of the glass sheet. The frame includes a frame support surface defining a second shape including a second curvature having a second radius of curvature of 1000 mm or less. A total force is applied to the glass sheet so that the glass sheet forms a third shape including a third curvature having a third radius of curvature of 1000 mm or less. The third shape deviates from the second shape by 2 mm or less across the frame support surface.
