Requirements for Glass Blanks Used in Precision Molding
1. Surface Cleanliness:
The surface of the blank must be exceptionally smooth and clean before molding.
2. Geometric Shape:
The blank must have an appropriate geometric shape.
3. Volume:
The blank must have the necessary volume for the molding process.
Blanks are typically spherical, disk-shaped, or curved and are produced through cold grinding or pressing methods.

Characteristics Required for Mold Materials
1. Surface Perfection:
The mold surface must be free of defects and capable of being polished to achieve a pore-free, smooth optical mirror finish.
2. High Temperature Stability:
The material must exhibit excellent resistance to oxidation in high-temperature environments, with stable structural and processing properties. Surface precision and smoothness should remain unaffected under these conditions.
3. Non-Reactive with Glass:
The mold material must not react with the glass or cause adhesion. It should facilitate easy demolding.
4. Strength and Hardness:
The material must possess high strength and hardness to withstand high temperatures and pressure conditions.
These requirements ensure the production of high-quality optical components with precision and durability.
Currently, there are numerous patents related to the development of mold materials for precision molding. The most representative mold materials include:
1. Super-Hard Aluminum Alloys:
o Used as a base material.
o Coated with precious metal alloys and titanium nitride thin films.
2. Carbon-Based Composite Materials:
o Super-hard aluminum alloys and carbon-carbon composites serve as the base materials.
o Coated with hard carbon or diamond-like carbon (DLC) thin films.
3. New Ceramic Materials:
o Compositions such as Cr?O?-ZrO?-TiO? are employed as innovative ceramic materials for molds.
