Corning Gorilla Glass Screens to be used in Samsung Phones

Jul 8 2009, 10:00am CDT | by Shane McGlaun

Corning has announced that it will be providing its Gorilla Glass to Samsung for use in touchscreen Ultra Touch mobile phones. The special glass is designed with a chemical treatment process that produces durable and scratch resistant glass covers for touch screens and flat portable displays.

The glass is available in thicknesses from 0.5mm to 2mm for flexibility in the design of products. The glass is environmentally friendly as well with alumino-silicate construction allowing for production of full sheets of glass with perfect surfaces.

“The full touch screen mobile category is growing rapidly these days and projected capacitive technology is one of the preferred touch technologies for today’s full touch mobile market,” said Andy Kim, senior manager of Product Planning Group, Samsung Electronics. “Working with Corning and the unique composition of Gorilla glass allowed us to design a thin, light-weight, stylish mobile phone.”
