Corning Incorporated (NYSE:GLW) announced today that Corning’s
Gorilla® glass was selected as the protective cover glass for the
docomo PRIME series™ N-02B by NEC. NEC, a mobile phone leader in
the Japanese market, is offering this feature-rich touch phone with
a 3.2-inch display.
“NEC was looking for a company that offered flexibility in
supply and a product that would withstand their rigorous
device-level stress tests,” said Osamu Ishihara, regional sales
manager, Specialty Materials Division, Corning International K.K.
“They were very pleased with the durability and scratch resistance
of Gorilla glass and felt it would be ideal for the touch screen of
their new NEC N-02B camera phone.”
In acknowledging NEC’s adoption of Gorilla glass, Clifford L.
Hund, general manager and president, Corning East Asia, indicated
that Corning is very pleased to work with NEC and expand its
footprint into the Japanese mobile phone market. Corning’s Gorilla
glass is currently on more than 70 devices and 17 major brands.
After undergoing a chemical strengthening process, Gorilla glass
provides device manufacturers with a highly durable,
scratch-resistant, liquid crystal display (LCD) cover. These
features make Gorilla glass an ideal solution for personal
electronic devices, such as mobile phones and notebook computers,
and are especially valuable for products featuring touch-screen
technologies.
Corning’s Gorilla glass is available in a variety of
thicknesses, from 0.55 millimeters up to 2.0 millimeters, providing
flexibility in device design as well as glass processing. It is an
environmentally friendly aluminosilicate glass produced with
Corning’s proprietary fusion draw process, which enables the
production of uniform thin sheets with a pristine surface.
