Corning Announces Evolution in Large Gen-Size Glass at SID 2015
02 Junho 2015 - 9:34AM
Corning® EAGLE XG® Slim now available in 0.4mm
thickness
in glass sizes up to Gen
8.5
SAN JOSE, CALIF., June
2, 2015 - Corning Incorporated (NYSE: GLW) today
announced Corning® EAGLE
XG® Slim glass is
now available in 0.4mm thickness in sizes up to Gen 8.5. This
evolution in thin, large gen-size glass enables display
manufacturers to produce a broader range of applications in their
large-gen panel manufacturing facilities.
Large-size EAGLE XG Slim, in 0.4mm thickness, is a
premium product that provides several advantages over thicker glass
substrates, including: enhanced performance and higher reliability
for curved TV panels; the production of thinner and lighter
large-size displays; and the ability to reduce panel acid-etching
requirements.
"The requirements for emerging display
technologies, in both TV and mobile applications, will place
greater demands on glass performance," said Chris Hudson,
commercial director, Corning Display Technologies. "To meet these
requirements we're providing our customers with additional glass
substrate options to ensure they have the right product to meet
current and emerging display requirements."
"We have fully leveraged our glass manufacturing
expertise to ensure that we provide this thinner product with the
same high-level attribute performance that we deliver in today's
thicker large gen-size glass," Hudson continued. "EAGLE XG Slim in
0.4mm is now available for our customers in large sizes as they
look to develop and introduce premium products."
Corning will feature an array of products from
Corning Glass Technologies, June 2-4 at SID Display Week. For more
information about EAGLE XG Slim or other Corning technologies,
