Objective
- Synthesis of thin, glasslike layers for staining glass surfaces by a wet coating process
with intensive colors, also to be integrated into AR-coatings
Methods
- wet coating of the glass surface with nanocomposite layers fabricated by sol-gel-process
(spraying, dip-coating, spin-coating, printing) with following densification of the layer
by 400 - 650 °C
Results
- transparent, scratch-resistant, glass-like layers showing the colors red, blue, yellow,
orange, brown, gray and green
- Coating thickness: 150 nm - 2 µm
|
Applications
- Architectural glazing, halogen lamps, flash lamps, automotive glazing, decorative
glazing
- interference coatings (reflection, AR) ranging from UV to IR
Advantage
- intensively colored coatings with thicknesses of 150 nm - 2 µm
- UV-, temperature-stable and weatherproof
- also to be used as an antiglare coating through incorporation of a tailored surface
roughness
