Gorilla Glass 3 tensile strength?
Gorilla Glass 3 tensile strength?
(OP)
I've looked everywhere and I can't seem to find any info on the tensile strength of any version of Gorilla Glass 1, 2, or 3
Normal glass seems to have a tensile strength of around 50MPa. Gorilla Glass 2 was demonstrated to be stronger and more impact resistant than aluminum, so (assuming an modulus of 70GPa) it should have a tensile strength of >300MPa (just a guess)
Does anyone have any hard data on the tensile strength of Gorilla Glass 3 (their latest version)?

Corning is careful not to outright mention the tensile strength of Gorilla Glass. The information they do release is here:

Here is a competitor product, Xensation by Schott:

It lists a 4-point bending strength of 800 MPa, and I think Gorilla glass would be similar.

It would definitely take a lot of force to actually break (not just dent) aluminum.
Anyway, what about Corning Willow Glass? Is that just the same thing as Gorilla Glass but much thinner?

I'd like to make things like cups and bowls out of that stuff.
