Abstract
Abstract A crystallizable fusion-type glass sealing composition, such as lead borosilicate or lead-zinc-borate solder glass, having incorporated therein from about 1 to about 25 percent by weight of aluminum titanate; which solder glass is useful in sealing TV bulbs, in electronics sealing applications and in other instances where the sealing of a glass surface to another surface, such as glass, can be accomplished at a temperature sufficiently low as not to damage any sensitive or delicate electronic parts closely spaced from the surfaces being sealed.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
11 words
from about 1 to 25 percent by weight of aluminum titanate.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
41 words
A thermally crystallizable fusion-type glass sealant composition as claimed in claim 1, wherein the amount of aluminum titanate is selected to impart to the glass sealing composition an increase in the time for the fused glass to exhibit an isothermal peak.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
40 words
A thermally crystallizable fusion-type glass sealant composition as claimed in claim 1, wherein the glass is in the fused state and in the range 750* C. to 1,300* C. exhibits flow greater than in the absence of said aluminum titanate.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
36 words
The fusion-type glass sealing composition as defined in claim 1, wherein said sealing glass consists essentially of 70 to 82 weight percent PbO, 5 to 20 weight percent ZnO and 5 to 20 weight percent B2O3.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
