ABSTRACT:
A method of chemically strengthening a sodium silicate glass is disclosed wherein ions from the glass are exchanged for larger ions, e.g. Na.sup.+ for K.sup.+, at a temperature above the glass strain point, subsequently the same exchange is carried out below the glass strain point, and the glass article is maintained throughout the process in a single, temperature-programmed bath containing the large exchangeable ions.
