摘要:
A solar reflecting mirror includes a shaped glass substrate having a focal area, a reflective coating over its convex surface and a sodium ion barrier layer over its concave surface. The shaped substrate has a strain pattern having a radial tension strain at the bottom area, and circumferential compression strain at the periphery of the substrate. As the distance from the periphery of the shaped substrate increases, the circumferential compression strain decreases to a “transition line” where circumferential tension strain begins. As the distance from the transition line in a direction toward the bottom area of the glass substrate increases, the circumferential tension increases. To compensate for the strain pattern in the shaped glass substrate to avoid buckling of, and surface cracks of, the barrier layer, the barrier layer including an oxide of silicon and aluminum thickness, among other things is varied on. A method of making the solar mirror from shaped sections is also discussed.

A coating composition that contains at least one degradable coating layer and at least one layer of barrier coating is disclosed. The coating composition can be used to make a coated substrate having improved performance over conventional coated substrates after exposure to heat and certain chemicals like halides such as chlorides, sulfur, salt, chlorine, alkali, and enamels.

摘要:
A method is provided for changing the visible light transmittance of a coated article having a functional coating having at least one anti-reflective material and at least one infrared reflective material. The anti-reflective material includes an alloying material capable of combining or alloying with the infrared reflective material. A protective coating is deposited over the functional coating to prevent or retard the diffusion of atmospheric gas and/or vapor into the functional coating. The coated article is heated to a temperature sufficient to cause at least some of the alloying material to combine with at least some of the infrared reflective material to form a substance having a different visible light transmittance than the infrared reflective material.
摘要:
An article includes a substrate, a functional coating deposited over at least a portion of the substrate, and a protective (barrier) coating deposited over at least a portion of the functional coating. The barrier coating is stable to oxygen-containing gases and limits the transmission of oxygen-containing gases to materials over which it is deposited when subjected to conditioning steps such as heating, bending, and/or tempering.
摘要:
An article includes a substrate, a functional coating deposited over the substrate, and a protective coating deposited over the functional coating. The functional coating and the protective coating define a coating stack. The protective coating provides the coating stack with an emissivity value higher than the emissivity value of the functional coating alone. The protective coating can have a thickness in the range of greater than 100 Å to less than or equal to 10 microns and a refractive index in the range of 1.4 to 2. The protective coating can include a first layer formed over the functional coating and a second layer formed over the first layer. The first layer can include 50 wt. % to 100 wt. % alumina and 50 wt. % to 0 wt. % silica, and the second layer can include 50 wt. % to 100 wt. % silica and 50 wt. % to 0 wt. % alumina. An alternating current power supply and cathode target system includes a cathode target including aluminum in the range of 5 wt. % to 100 wt. % and silicon in the range of 0 wt. % to 95 wt. %.
