Strengthened glass with deep depth of compression

A glass article, the glass article comprising a thickness t in a range from about 0.15 mm up to about 2.0 mm and a compressive region having a compressive stress CS of from about 100 MPa up to about 1200 MPa at a surface of the glass article, wherein:

• a. the compressive region extends from the surface to a depth of compression DOC, wherein DOC≥0.1·t when t<0.5 mm and DOC 50 μm when t≥0.5 mm, and wherein the compressive region has a compressive stress profile;
• b. the compressive region has a compressive stress profile having a first portion having a first slope, wherein the first slope is less than or equal to about −2 MPa/μm and greater than or equal to about −8 MPa/μm;
• and
• c. a second portion extending from the surface to a least about 3 μm and up to about 15 μm within the glass article and having a second slope, and wherein the second slope is less than or equal to −40 MPa/μm and greater than or equal to −200 MPa/μm,
• wherein the glass article that has had a surface sandblasted with abrasive material at a load of 15 psi for 5 seconds has a peak load at failure of at least about 10 kgf as determined by abraded ring-on-ring testing wherein a ratio of a diameter of a loading ring D1 to a diameter of a support ring D2 is about 0.5.
