Revealed US manufacturer Corning Glass protective screens smart for the fourth generation of "Gorilla Glass" glass used by almost all major companies such as Samsung, LG and HTC, Motorola and Microsoft to protect its computers and smart phones tablet screens devices

The company was launched last year, "Gorilla Glass 3," which he said is designed to resist the bumps and scratches that might be exposed to on a daily basis, such as the phone and put it with a keychain in one pocket. Because those screens remained unbreakable, the company tried in the fourth generation of the windshield to focus on only one thing which is resistant to fall.

The company says that its scientists tested hundreds of broken glass devices through the process of the development of Gorilla Glass 4, which does not exceed 0.4 mm thick, and reached as a result of not surpise for users, which is that the smart phone screens are usually broken when hitting a surface such as concrete or harsh asphalt.

And began to conduct tests of the fall of the new glass on the solid ground of a meter high, and said that the new glass succeeded outlasting 80%, and it showed an improvement of twice the previous generation Gorilla Glass 3 and other types of glass-reinforced.

The head of Corning East Asia, India, Cliff, "I would not say we have synthesized a completely resistant glass to break, but we have come a long way so", stressing that the new generation offers the same degree of purity of the previous versions.

And the use of sapphire blue to protect smart devices screens, India said that the company still believes that the glass is currently the most appropriate option, he said, adding that when it comes to resist the obvious scratches the sapphire blue beats, but it comes back "gorilla" when it comes to stand fast against pressure.

Adding that the gorilla excel in more than one hand to many competing materials, and Apple and GT Advanced with two blue sapphire experiments showed that the production process quantities cover the needs of millions of devices is a daunting task.

The company says it is working on other ways to improve the glass-like clarity in the sun, and the production of curved screens and three-dimensional, noting that it has already begun shipping glass Gorilla Glass 4 to its partners and that it expects to introduce new devices this glass in the next year.
