Abstract
The invention relates to glass articles suitable for use as writable erasable marker boards. More particularly, disclosed is a strengthened glass article suitable for use as a writable erasable marker boards, wherein the glass sheet exhibits an ion exchanged glass having a front surface and a back surface and exhibiting a thickness of less than 2.0 mm and having a depth of layer (DOL) greater than 20 microns and a surface compressive strength of at least 300 MPa. The strengthened glass article exhibits certain optical properties which render it particularly suitable for use as a writable erasable marker boards electronic including: (1) shadow parallax to thickness ratio of less than 1 measured at a 60 degree incident light angle and for an index of refraction n; and, (2) a haze of less than 50%. Further disclosed is a markerboard with improved magnetic force attributes; sufficient to hold weak magnets in place.
