Laminated glass article with ion exchangeable core and clads layers having diffusivity contrast and methods of making the same

Abstract

A laminated glass article has a first layer having a first ion exchange diffusivity, D0, and a second layer adjacent to the first layer and having a second ion exchange diffusivity, D1. D0/D1 is from about 1.2 to about 10, or D0/D1 is from about 0.05 to about 0.95. A method for manufacturing the laminated glass article includes forming a first layer having a first ion exchange diffusivity, D0, and forming a second layer adjacent to the first layer and having a second ion exchange diffusivity, D1. The laminated glass article can be strengthened by an ion exchange process to form a strengthened laminated glass article having a compressive stress layer with a depth of layer from about 8 μm to about 100 μm.
