LionGlass, Penn State’s patent-pending glass compositional family offers an alternative to standard soda lime silicate glass for reducing the carbon footprint of the glass industry by about 50%.
It achieves this goal by lowering the melting temperature of everyday glass products by 400°C and eliminating the use of carbonate batch materials.
LionGlass also offers 10× improvement in damage resistance compared to soda lime silicate, enabling the lightweighting of everyday glass products.
Join presenter Dr. John Mauro, a world renown materials science engineer, educator and author, for a presentation on the latest developments of the LionGlass project, highlighting its potential applications with glass industry partners and environmental benefits.
