Refractive Index (590 nm)
Core glass** 1.50
Compression layer 1.51
Photo-elastic constant 31.9 nm/cm/MPa
** Core index is used for FSM-based measurements since it is unaffected by ion-exchange conditions.
Chemical Durability
Durability is measured via weight loss per surface area after immersion in the solvents shown below. Values are highly dependent
upon actual testing conditions. Data reported is for Corning Gorilla Glass 3.
