The mechanical behavior at the impact of a tempered CRT bulb is discussed. The surface strength of a glass bulb is able to be improved by tempering, but excessive tempering causes self-crack propagation and degrades implosion-proof characteristics. From our several impact tests and experiments, the most desirable intensity range of tempering for CRT glass bulbs has been found.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
