Abstract

A method for evaluating stress corrosion characteristics of thermally or chemically toughened glasses and ceramics is outlined. Values of the stress corrosion indexn (V = AKn) have been obtained and these are in excellent agreement with values for untreated materials. The analysis also explains the slightly greater absolute strength degradation observed for toughened glasses and ceramics.
