Rapidly growing mobile machines such as tablet PC and smart phone are equipped with touch screen panel using a sturdy material for products surface protection. Therefore, surge of chemically strengthened glass was increased and the amount of waste matter is proportional to demand. The purpose of this study is environmental impact assessment on touch screen panel of chemically strengthened glass by material life cycle assessment (MLCA). We used CES of Granta, SimaPro and Gabi software for MLCA. Chemically strengthened glass (2.7, 5.7 and 10.3 inch) was calculated to environmental impact assessment by Granta software under two cases. One case is Landfill and the other case is Reuse. As a result, in case of reuse, energy values of 2.7, 5.7 and 10.3 inches were reduced by an average of 51.4%, $CO_2$ values were reduced by an average of 46.6% than Landfill case, respectively. We assessed impact categories of 11 types using SimaPro software. As a result, the contents of fossil fuels, inorganics and climate change have a huge impact than the other impact categories. And the main cause of environmental impact is antimony and hydrogen fluoride in Gabi results.

There were several numbers of studies on chemically strengthening glass. Most of them were strengthened in molten salt bath below transformation range of glass. Apart from them, this study used solution hydration technique by Autoclave. After determining proper concentration of AgNO3 salt solution, experimental condition varied from 4hrs to 16hrs at relatively low temperature (180, 200, 220$^{\circ}C$). The results showed that the Soda-Lime-Silica glass could be strengthened by diffusion mechanism without influence of water above 15% salt solution. Because of Ag+ ion penetration in glass surface, yellow color appeared and decreased transmittance at visible range. Modulus of rupture was increased with the amount of exchange and brittleness was decreased.

In this study, we examined the influence of molten $KNO_3$ flow on mechanical properties and their deviation when a chemical toughening process was applied to soda lime silicate glass ($Na_2O-CaO-SiO_2$). $KNO_3$ melt flow was controlled using three methods: (1) glass tray rotation, (2) impeller stirring, and (3) natural convection. DOL and hardness were found to be enhanced by tray rotation because this rotation was able to maintain the concentration around the glass surface, in contrast to other methods. However, there did not appear to be a statistically significant difference in the 3-point bending strength for the three flow conditions due to the ground edge condition.

There are a number of studies on chemically strengthened glass. Most of them are strengthened in molten salt bath below transformation range of glass. This research is distinguished from the aforementioned studies in that single $KNO_3$ powder was used by employing screen printing technique. In this study soda-lime-silicate(SLS) glasses for bulletproof glass application with various thicknesses were used. The maximum value of the bending strength is 791MPa heat treated at $480^{\circ}C$, which is about 4.3 times higher than the parent glass, which is the highest strength of all soda-lime glasses. In this study, it is also observed that Vickers hardness increased to $657H_v$, which is about 15% higher than the parent glass($568.7H_v$) and fracture toughness was not changed. Depth profiles measured by electron probe micro analyzer(EPMA) showed a correlation between the migrations of $K^+$ ions with bending strength of ion exchanged glasses.

Energy saving standard for buildings are strengthened, the application of exterior insulation finishing system and thickness of insulation materials are increasing. Most buildings with exterior insulation finishing system is applied organic insulating material. Organic insulating material have workability, economic feasibility, reduction in construction cost, and excellent thermal insulation performance. However, Organic insulating material is very vulnerable to heat, so when a fire occurs, rapid fire spread and toxic gas are generated, causing many casualties. Inorganic insulating material can be non-combustible performance, but it is heavy and has low thermal insulation performance. Mineral wool has higher thermal insulation performance than other types of inorganic insulating material, but mineral wool is disadvantageous to workability and vulnerable to moisture. Glass bubble are highly resistant to water and chemically stable substances. In addition, the density of the glass bubble is very low and the particles are spherical, fluidity is improved by the ball bearing effect. Glass bubbles can be used with cement-based ino rganic insulating material to impro ve the weight and thermal insulatio n perfo rmance o f cement-based inorganic insulation. This study produced a inorganic insulating materials were manufactured using cement-based materials and glass bubble. In order to evaluate the insulation performance and flame retardant performance of cement-based super light-weight inorganic insulating materials using with glass bubble, insulation performance or flame retardant and non-combustible performance were evaluated after manufacturing insulating materials using micro cement and two types of glass bubbles. From the test result, Increasing the mixing ratio of glass bubbles improved the insulation performance of cement-based super light-weight inorganic insulating materials, and when the mixing ratio of glass bubbles was 10%, it sho wed sufficient flame retardant and no n-co mbustible perfo rmance.
