In a glass front-panel for a cathode ray tube, whose surface layer contains more potassium ions than those in the interior thereof, and whose flange is stuck to a rear panel to form a vacuum vessel, only the surface layer of the flange portion is substantially removed, or in a glass front-panel for a cathode ray tube, comprising an image displaying portion, a side wall portion and a flange portion, a belt-like electrode for making a gradient of electric potential easier is disposed on a surface of the side wall portion, so that the cathode ray tube is prevented from being damaged due to dielectric breakdown.

Glass front-panel

A method of bonding a glass and a metal with a low-melting glass frit, in which the low-melting glass frit contains from 1 to 10% by weight of an aluminum borate whisker, and the difference in linear expansion coefficient between the low-melting glass frit and the glass is 10.times.10.sup.-7 /.degree.C. or less; and a method for producing a cathode ray tube comprising the step of bonding a glass back plate and a metal stud pin with a low-melting glass frit, the low-melting glass frit containing from 1 to 10% by weight of an aluminum borate whisker, and the difference in linear expansion coefficient between the low-melting glass frit and the glass back plate being 10.times.10.sup.-7 /.degree.C. or less.

Glass pressure-vessel for a cathode ray tube

A process for producing a glass article protected from coloring by electron rays comprises preparing a soda-lime-silica glass, contacting the glass with a molten salt containing potassium ions so that sodium ions in a surface layer thereof are exchanged by potassium ions, and subjecting the glass to heat treatment so that the surface layer thereof in a depth to which the irradiated electron rays penetrate when electron rays are irradiated has a composition defined by a molar ratio of 0.4 to 0.65 for Na.sub.2 O/(Na.sub.2 O+K.sub.2 O). The soda-lime-silica glass is composed of 50-75% by weight of SiO.sub.2, 0.5-2.5% by weight of Al.sub.2 O.sub.3, 0-0.1% by weight of Fe.sub.2 O.sub.3, 5.0-14.0% by weight of CaO, 0-4.5% by weight of MgO, 5.0-16.0% by weight of Na.sub.2 O, 0-2.0% by weight of K.sub.2 O, 0-0.5% by weight of TiO.sub.2, and 0-0.5% by weight of SO.sub.3. The content of alkali metal oxides in the glass is 5% and above, and ratio of Na.sub.2 O in the alkali metal oxides is 65% and above.

Process for producing a glass article protected from coloring by

The instant invention relates to soda-lime-silica glass articles, having a surface which is resistant to coloring by electron rays which is suitable for use as the glass panel of a cathode ray tube. Said glass article being produced by a float process, and said surface having the sodium ions exchanged with lithium and at least one of potassium, rubidium, and cesium ions. In another aspect of the invention a soda-lime-silica glass containing 0.2-1.5% by weight of Li.sub.2 O having the sodium ions in at least one surface exchanged with potassiums is produced, such that the ratio of Na.sub.2 O/(Na.sub.2 O+K.sub.2 O) is 0.2-0.6 for a depth of 0.5 microns from said surface.
