Lead free, Low temperature sealing materials for soda lime glass substrates in Plasma Display Panel (PDP)

New glass compositions for lead free, low temperature sealing glass frit was examined in $ZnO-V_2O_5-P_2O_5$ glass system which can be used sealing material for PDP to be made of soda lime glass substrates. Among many glass compositions, KFS-C glass showed low glass transition point (Tg) and good fluidity and adhesion characteristics when it was tested by flow button method at low temperature of $420^{\circ}C$. Its Tg was $317^{\circ}C$ and thermal expansion coefficient (CTE) was $70{\times}10^{-7}/K$. The glass frit was mixed with an organic vehicle to make a paste and it was dispensed and sealed with soda lime glass substrates at $420^{\circ}C$ for 10min. Sealed glass panels also showed good adhesion strength even sealed at low temperature of $420^{\circ}C$.
