An ion-exchange process for use in production of flat glass and items such as filters and gauge glasses has been developed. The thermo-mechanical properties of the chemically-strengthened glasses have been investigated and the effectiveness of their use in various designs and service conditions assessed. Some 12m pieces of chemically-strengthened glass are produced annually in the Soviet Union.
