Abstract
Annealing makes the glass denser, improves hardness and enhances the compressive stress build-up. However, bending strength of as-received and annealed glass after ion-exchange is substantially the same, this being probably attributed to the limited case depth if compared to surface flaws. Annealing before ion exchange does not appear to be a crucial factor in improving chemical strengthening efficiency in thin borosilicate glass.
