Abstract

We present the results of fracture resistance tests for technical and optical glasses performed by indentation flaking of the rectangular specimen edge. The features of crack propagation in these glasses are analyzed during chipping fracture caused by indentation with blunt and sharp diamond indenters. By comparative analysis of the values for resistance to edge flaking and those for fracture resistance, new data on the mechanical behavior of the above glasses in fracture are obtained. In particular, it is shown that these glasses, along with ceramic materials used to produce armor, have an enhanced resistance to the onset of fracture.
