Gorilla Glass : Goodbye Scratches !

The screen with glass based on the phone and some gadgets will certainly make some people feel anxious, it is none other than glass because the material basis of course susceptible to rupture. But with the Gorilla Glass technology being developed by company named Corning glass manufacturing from the United States, these concerns can be remedied now.

Screen with barium Gorilla Glass has the ability which is not possessed by any other types of glass. One of the capabilities of broken resistance, and anti-scratch of course. In addition, Gorilla Glass also has a fairly thin size, ranging from 0.5 mm to 2 mm and easily cleaned.

Gorilla Glass was made through a process of melting glass-making material with high accuracy level. Automation of the process was conducted, resulting a clean glass surface, smooth flat and clear. And Corning claims to have its own technique in making Gorilla Glass, in which one of the advantages of not requiring grinding and polishing process.

After that, the glass that is so going through the process of ion exchange. That is the process of giving strength to the glass chemically. How, glass dipped in hot containers containing salt melt at a temperature of 400 � C. Furthermore, small amounts of sodium ions are released from the glass, and will be replaced with potassium ions in large quantities from the salt melt earlier. This potassium ion will coat the glass and will be compressed along with the cooling of the glass temperature. Resulting in a layer that acts like an "armor" on the glass. Ion exchange process is also what makes Gorilla Glass can be made in the size of a thin but still sturdy.

With the presence of several types of smartphones (mostly from Motorola Android) that has been equipped with Gorilla Glass, of course, will increasingly make their users need no longer feel worried about going broke or scratched screen, and it certainly makes the phone screen was easy to clean .
