- the temperature of the glass ribbon when HF is sprayed is 770 to 800 ° C. in all comparative examples and examples.
- Example 1-1 to 1-2, 2-1 to 2-4, 3-1, and 4-1 as shown in Table 1, the HF molar concentration of the process gas sprayed in the width direction of the glass ribbon 101
- the total contact amount of fluorine atoms was changed so that the total contact amount of fluorine atoms was different. More specifically, when the center position in the width direction of the glass ribbon 101 is the origin, the right side in the flow direction Ya of the glass ribbon 101 is the + direction, and the left side is the ⁇ direction, ⁇ 2320 to ⁇ 1473 mm (FIG. 4 ( a) in the vicinity of position X3 in FIG. 4A), ⁇ 1473 to +1473 mm (in the vicinity of position X2 in FIG.
- the HF total contact amount is set to the minimum value in the vicinity of positions X1 and X3 (both ends in the width direction), and the HF contact amount is set to the maximum value in the vicinity of position X2 (width direction center).
- the minimum value of the HF total contact amount is a value obtained by reducing the maximum value of the HF total contact amount by 7.7 to 100%.
- Comparative Examples 1-1, 2-1, 3-1, and 4-1 HF was not sprayed on the glass ribbon 101.
- Comparative Examples 1-2, 2-2, 3-2, and 4-2 In the width direction of the glass ribbon 101, the HF molar concentration of the process gas to be sprayed was set to be equal so that the total contact amount of HF was equal.
- Comparative Example 1-1, 2-1, 3-1, 4-1, 4-2 and Example 3-1, 4-1 in the width direction position -318 mm the surface stresses on the front and back surfaces (Hereinafter referred to as CS) and stress layer depth (hereinafter referred to as DOL) were measured. The average value is also shown in Table 1.
- Comparative Example 1-2 and Examples 1-1 to 1-2 the chemical strengthening time and the temperature of the chemical strengthening salt are the same as in Comparative Example 1-1.
- Comparative Example 2-2 and Examples 2-1 to 2-4 have the same chemical strengthening time and chemical strengthening salt temperature as Comparative Example 2-1.
- Comparative Examples 3-1, 3-2 and Example 3-1 the chemical strengthening time and the temperature of the chemical strengthening salt are all the same.
- all of Comparative Examples 4-1 and 4-2 and Example 4-1 have the same chemical strengthening time and chemical strengthening salt temperature.
- Comparative Examples 1-1, 2-1, 3-1 and 4-1 in Table 2 it can be seen that the amount of warp after strengthening differs depending on the position of the glass ribbon 101 in the width direction when HF is not sprayed.
- the amount of warp after strengthening increases toward the center in the width direction of the glass ribbon 101, and the amount of warp after strengthening decreases toward the both ends in the width direction. The tendency to become is remarkable.
- Comparative Examples 1-2, 2-2, 3-2 and 4-2 in which the HF total contact amount (total contact amount of fluorine atoms) is set equal in the width direction of the glass ribbon 101, Comparative Example 1 Compared with ⁇ 1, 2-1, 3-1, and 4-1, the warped amount after strengthening is reduced in the entire width direction, and the average value of warpage, ⁇ , and ⁇ improvement rate are improved. This is due to the fact that the warp after chemical strengthening was reduced by the fluorine treatment of the surface of the glass ribbon.
- Examples 1-1 to 1-2, 2-1 to 2-4, 3-1, and 4-1 in which the HF total contact amount (total contact amount of fluorine atoms) in the width direction of the glass ribbon 101 was changed Compared with Comparative Examples 1-1, 2-1, 3-1, and 4-1, the warped amount after strengthening is reduced over the entire width direction, and the average value of warpage, ⁇ , and ⁇ improvement rate are improved. Yes.
- the minimum value of the HF total contact amount is the HF total contact amount.
- the ⁇ and ⁇ improvement rates are improved as compared with Comparative Examples 1-2 and 2-2, and over the entire width direction. It can be seen that a more uniform warp distribution is obtained.
- the HF total contact amount is increased at a position where the post-strengthening warpage amount is large (the central portion in the width direction). And it became clear that the amount of warpage after reinforcement can be effectively reduced over the entire width direction by reducing the total contact amount of HF at the position where the amount of warpage after reinforcement is small (both ends in the width direction).
- the amount of warpage of the glass sheet after chemical strengthening tends to increase toward the center in the width direction and decreases toward both ends in the width direction. It is preferable to adjust the contact amount.
- the width direction By reducing the total HF contact amount at the center and decreasing the HF total contact amount at both ends in the width direction, the same effect can be obtained.
