FAQ

Can the AG and AR process be realized on a cover glass ?  

Can the AG and AR process be realized on a cover glass ?

AG, AR and AF can be realized on the same cover glass, which is called 3A.  It is standard for display cover glass.

How much is IK08 equivalent to a drop ball test of glass?

What kind of processes can achieve the “dead front effect” of cover glass?

Answer:

①Printing, suitable for small area printing within 20*20mm.

 

②Electroplating, suitable for small sizes below 7 inches

 

③The glass material is gray glass, and the maximum size can be 32 inches.

 

④Film Adhesion, unlimited size

What is the stress standard after glass chemical strengthening?

Corning Gorilla Glass Stress Value: DOL>40um, CS>650Mpa

 

Soda Lime Glass Stress Value: DOL>8um, CS>450Mpa ​

What is the Dead Front Glass?

This question has written a lot of introduction, You can search on the Gelivable website and you will find related videos, introductions, and pictures.
“DeadFronteffect”(All-in-one-black), that is to say, the display is clearly visible when back-lit, and when non-backlit, the entire display including glass is completely black without a color difference. Dead front glass is widely used in smart homes, smart wearables, financials, medicals, and industrial control, etc.

 

Will the glass strength be affected after AG etching?

Definitely not. Because the etched glass surface is only about 0.05mm depth, and the chemical strengthening is immersion type, which can fully complete the replacement of ions. We have done too many time tests and the results showed that it didn’t affect the strength of the glass.

What is the relationship between the haze and gloss of AG glass?

Answer: The lower the gloss, the bigger the haze value. The higher the gloss, the smaller the haze value. See the table below for details:

 

How to distinguish whether the glass is strengthened?

Answer: The naked eye is indistinguishable. Chemical strengthening can be measured with a stress meter, with lines indicating reinforcement and without lines indicating no reinforcement.

For AF(Anti-Fingerprint) coating, how much is the qualified water contact angle?

GelivableStandard Water Contact Angle is >105°, Abrasion Test: 200g weight,Steel Wool#0000,  2000times(back and forth as 1 time),Recession Value within 15%​​

 

How to recognize the etched side?

The easiest way is to hold the AG glass under a fluorescent light and look at the tube reflected on the glass from the front. If the light is scattered on the glass, it is etched side. If the light is clearly visible, it is a non-ag side. This is the most direct way to distinguish from the visual effect.

 

Will the clarity of touchscreen be affected after custom AG glass bonding?

Will the clarity of touchscreen be affected after custom AG glass bonding?

 

AG(anti-glare) glass is designed to reduce reflection and prevent reflection. Compared with ordinary glass, it gives people a more comfortable feeling visually. The higher the gloss, the higher the clarity. The specific parameters are as shown in the figure below. Feel free to contact us to take a free sample to test the actual effect. ​

Is the etching AG processed before or after glass tempering?

Is the etching AG processed before or after glass tempering?

The answer is before tempering. The process is: glass raw material large plate etching AG treatment → cutting → edging → cleaning → chemical strengthening or thermal tempering.

What’s the unit of Haze ?

Haze refers to percentage of incident transmission light which deviates more than 2.5°accounts for total incident transmission light, the unit symbol is %. The higher the haze is, the lower the gloss and the resolution is.

Is it possible to print on the side of AG glass ?

No matter it’s single side AG glass or double sided AG glass, both can be silkscreen printed.

What’s the difference between single side AG glass and double sided AG glass?

Gelivable’s AG glass is immersed etching. Technically speaking, we have to cover another side when we’re etching single side AG glass.

Will the gloss be varied after assembly.

If you bond the glass with other parts fully by optical bonding, the gloss will vary,the gloss of double side AG glass will increase by 10-20. If it’s single side AG glass or bonded half, the gloss varies small.
