Abstract: A combustion burner employed in a submerged combustion vessel used to melt high index glass includes an arch positioned on a burner in the submerged combustion vessel. An amount of combustible gas flows through a first port disposed in a first haunch of the arch and through a second port disposed in a second haunch of the arch. Fuel is supplied through an end port in a fuel supply line. The end port is disposed under the arch. An amount of glass is fed into the submerged combustion vessel and is melted inside the submerged combustion vessel by igniting the burner. Some of the melted glass at least partially solidifies against a wall of the submerged combustion vessel such that the melted glass is contained in a vessel of itself.

Abstract: A sealed pharmaceutical container includes a shoulder, a neck extending from the shoulder, and a flange extending from the neck. The flange includes an inclined sealing surface defining an opening in the sealed pharmaceutical container. The sealed pharmaceutical container also includes a sealing assembly including a stopper extending over the sealing surface of the flange and a cap securing the stopper to the flange. The stopper has a glass transition temperature (Tg) that is greater than or equal to −70° C. and less than or equal to −45° C. The sealing assembly maintains a helium leakage rate of the sealed pharmaceutical container of less than or equal to 1.4×10−6 cm3/s as the sealed pharmaceutical container is cooled to a temperature of less than or equal to −45° C.

Abstract: A sealed pharmaceutical container comprises a shoulder, a neck extending from the shoulder, and a flange extending from the neck. The flange comprises an outer surface extending from the underside surface and a contact surface extending between the outer surface and an inner surface defining an opening in the sealed pharmaceutical container. The contact surface comprises an outer peripheral edge disposed proximate to the outer surface of the flange. The sealed pharmaceutical container comprises a sealing assembly comprising a stopper extending over the contact surface of the flange and covering the opening, and a cap securing the stopper to the flange. The stopper comprises a sealing surface that is secured in contact with the contact surface of the flange to form a seal between the flange and the stopper. An outer peripheral edge of the sealing surface is disposed at or radially inward of the outer peripheral edge.

Abstract: Glass-based articles that include a compressive stress layer extending from a surface of the glass-based article to a depth of compression are formed by exposing glass-based substrates to water vapor containing environments. The methods of forming the glass-based articles may include elevated pressures and/or multiple exposures to water vapor containing environments.

Abstract: Caps for sealing assemblies for sealing glass containers and maintaining container closure integrity at −80° C. or less are disclosed. The caps include a cap skirt having an annular body and a crimp region. The crimp region is a crimpable metal. The annular body of the cap skirt has a coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) greater than a CTE of a metal consisting of aluminum, a stiffness greater than or equal to 2 times a stiffness of the crimp region, or both. The greater CTE, stiffness, or both of the cap skirt increase the seal pressure and contact area between the stopper and glass container when cooled to −80° C. or less. The caps enable the sealing assemblies to maintain a helium leakage rate of the sealed glass container of less than or equal to 1.4×10−6 cm3/s at −80° C. or less.
