AG (Anti-Glare) Cover Glass—is a type of functional cover glass specially designed to reduce light reflection and glare through advanced surface treatment technologies such as micro-etching, matte coatings, or physical/chemical scattering structures.
The core principle is to scatter incoming light using microscopic surface roughness, which effectively lowers the surface reflectivity of the glass. As a result, AG cover glass significantly enhances display visibility and clarity, especially in environments with strong ambient lighting.
Glass: Mohs 6–7 hardness
PC/PMMA: 3H–4H pencil hardness (with coating)
Material Type | Characteristics | Suitable Applications |
Aluminosilicate Glass | High hardness (≈7H), high transmittance, impact resistant, and can be chemically strengthened | Premium smartphones, tablets, automotive displays (central control screens) |
Soda-lime Glass | Requires surface coating or etching for AG function, moderate anti-glare performance | Industrial displays, public information screens |
PC/PMMA Composite | Economical, Lightweight, impact resistant (drop resistant), needs a hard coating | Portable devices, educational tablets, medical equipment |
Ultra-thin Flexible Glass | Bendable (curvature radius ≤5mm), can be combined with AG coatings | Foldable display devices, curved automotive displays |
VIIST supports chemical etching and matte coating spraying processes, depending on the application, often combining Anti-reflective coating and anti-fingerprinting coating.
CNC Cutting: For example, precisely cuts special shapes or holes (such as camera openings) in cover glass.
Silkscreen Printing/Back Adhesive: Prints ink patterns (for light-blocking or decorative edges) or applies OCA adhesive for full lamination of cover glass onto display modules.
VIIST is dedicated to manufacturing cover glasses for diverse applications, ranging from consumer electronics to specialized displays.
