With Samsung announcing its new foldable Galaxy phone and Chinese company Royole unveiling the foldable FlexPai, it's clear that foldable phones will be a real thing in 2019. And while OLED screens have long been flexible, the product category won't work unless those screens are covered with similarly twisty glass -- which is exactly why Corning continues to push the envelope on how much glass can bend. "To go to a tight bend radius, you have to go to a glass that's much, much thinner than what you have today and some of the glass we have in our laboratory is thinner than a human hair," says Polly Chu, technology director at Corning.

Corning's ultrathin bendable glass is still in development, but it can fold almost in half, We got an early look at Corning's ultrathin bendable glass, which is about 0.1mm thin and can bend almost in half like a piece of paper to a 5mm radius, It's not flowers and astronauts iphone case its first bendable glass, but it's a lot thinner and a lot more flexible than the Willow glass they introduced a few years back, I was able to hold the glass in my hands, and I had a hard time believing it was a sheet of glass and not a piece of thin plastic..

Plastic is also being considered as a potential cover material for foldable phone displays. But unlike plastic, which is prone to scratching, creasing and changing color over time, Corning says its glass will retain its integrity and color. "If you look at what people demand on their smartphones today, scratch resistance, drop resistance, good optical properties, great tactile feel … I think glass will probably overtake plastic as the material of choice for cover material," says John Bayne, vice president at Corning Gorilla Glass.

But Corning's glass is still in development, which means you won't find it on any foldable devices yet and it may still be a slow roll to see it out in the market, The FlexpPai, which is due to start shipping in December, uses a plastic material to cover its screen while Samsung is rumored to be using a transparent polyimide alternative for its phone, "The foldable opportunity is a little bit of a moving target now, because the use case isn't quite and the form factor isn't quite clear," says Bayne, "Until these things start to manifest themselves and become more clear we'll have to innovate in different material options in flowers and astronauts iphone case the glass space to see what the right product is ., and time our development accordingly."As screens continue to stretch beyond TV's and mobile devices into other industries, manufacturers are looking at glass to cover their displays, And Corning's glass may soon be taking the driver's seat when it comes to automotive design, With cars become more and more autonomous, screens are popping up inside the cars for both the driver and the passenger to use as a control and entertainment center..

"Inside the car … almost all the surfaces [in the car] have shape except for this display, and so what designers are looking to do is bend those displays around the driver and around the passenger," says Mike Kunigonis, vice president of Corning Automotive Glass Solutions. The curved glass in the interior of the car transforms the entire surface into a usable display. Corning has been working on curved dashboard displays for car interiors that wrap around the cockpit and textured glass that can mimic wood and other car surfaces.

Using a technology called dead front, Corning can hide controls underneath this textured glass that only appear when the glass is backlit, This allows the controls to seamlessly blend into the console and merge into dashboard, Even the car windows have the potential to become backlit touch screens essentially turning any glass surface within flowers and astronauts iphone case the car into a usable display, This textured glass looks and feels like wood and can hide the icons when the light is turned off, And with more glass in the driver's seat, good visibility is crucial to keep up with safety standards, which is why Corning has also developed antireflective coatings for its glass that might be able to reduce the appearance of fingerprints and drastically improve glare, The company is also making the glass on the exterior of the car more durable, Corning has partnerships with automakers to develop windshield glass that's more resilient to rock chips and hail..

Ford, BMW and Porsche are just some of the car manufacturers that have started to use Corning's glass in newer cars, with over 50 more expected to roll out in the next 18 months. Beyond phones and cars, Corning believes glass will continue to be play an important part in the development of new technologies that will help unlock the potential of this material. "So far, scientists have incorporated about 50 elements from the periodic table into silica, but essentially the entire periodic table is available and I really think we're just getting started. Think about holding the Oxford English Dictionary and the amount of words you can make with just 26 letters," says Evenson.
