Xensation® α
SCHOTT Xensation® α is a chemically strengthened lithium alumino-borosilicate cover glass that offers world-leading impact and drop resistance for smartphones.A new milestone in smartphone protection
Xensation® α is formulated and manufactured to compete with the best smartphone cover glasses in the world and, as the Set-Drop-Test shows, Xensation® α cover glass is less susceptible to breakage even on rough grounds than other aluminosilicate and lithium aluminosilicate cover glasses. Deeper chemical strengthening through an improved ion-exchange process augments the glass and offers more protection for the smartphone if it’s dropped, while the addition of the element boron improves scratch performance as Knoop-Diamond Indenter lab tests show.
Key benefits of Xensation® α cover glass
