Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to salt bath systems for strengthening glass articles including a salt bath tank defining a first interior volume enclosed by at least one sidewall; a salt bath composition including an alkali metal salt positioned within the first interior volume; a containment device defining a second interior volume enclosed by at least one sidewall and including a regeneration medium positioned within the second interior volume; and a circulation device positioned proximate to an inlet of the containment device, wherein the circulation device is operable to circulate the salt bath composition through the containment device. Methods for regenerating a molten salt are also disclosed.

Abstract: According to one or more embodiments disclosed herein, a coated glass article may be made by a method that includes applying a water-based coating mixture onto at least a portion of a first surface of a glass article, and heating the water-based coating mixture to form a coating on the first surface of the glass article, where the coating includes metal oxide and polymer. The water-based coating mixture may include comprise water in an amount of at least 50% by weight of the water-based coating mixture, a polymer or polymer precursor, and a metal oxide precursor. The polymer or polymer precursor may be miscible in the water or may form an emulsion with the water. The metal oxide precursor may be miscible in the water or may form an emulsion with the water.
