PANAJI: Corning Integrated (NYSE: GLW) unveiled its latest glass innovation, Corning® Gorilla® Glass Victus® 2. Corning continues to push the boundaries of glass by increasing its Corning® Gorilla® Glass portfolio. With a brand new glass composition, Gorilla Glass Victus 2 delivers improved drop efficiency on tough surfaces like concrete, the world’s most abundantly engineered materials, whereas preserving the scratch resistance of Gorilla Glass Victus.
“Smartphones are the centre of our digital lives, and the requirement for distinctive scratch and drop resistance has solely elevated with our rising reliance on clear, damage-free shows,” stated David Velasquez, vp and basic supervisor of Gorilla Glass. “Surfaces matter and tough surfaces like concrete are in all places.”
Corning’s intensive analysis has proven that 84% of shoppers throughout three of the biggest smartphone markets – China, India, and the US – cite sturdiness because the primary buying consideration behind the model itself.
“We challenged our scientists not solely to create a glass composition that was sturdy sufficient to higher survive drops from waist top onto rougher surfaces than asphalt however to enhance cover-glass efficiency for bigger and heavier gadgets,” stated Velasquez. “With extra subtle and assorted designs, as we speak’s smartphones are almost 15% heavier, and display sizes are as much as 10% bigger than they have been 4 years in the past – growing each the stress on the duvet glass and the chance of injury. Gorilla Glass Victus 2 redefines robust for shoppers and OEMs.”

Aggressive aluminosilicate glasses from different producers usually fail when dropped from half a meter or much less. As well as, Gorilla Glass Victus 2 continued to outlive drops as much as two meters on a floor replicating asphalt and maintained scratch resistance as much as 4 instances higher than aggressive aluminosilicate.
For greater than a decade, Gorilla Glass has helped revolutionize the way in which we talk and remodel the cellular client electronics business. With almost half a billion world shoppers but to transition to smartphones, Gorilla Glass will proceed to resolve robust client challenges and meet the wants of present and future smartphone customers.
