Definitions
- the present disclosure relates, in general to a coated glass article, and more specifically to a heat treatable solar control glass article having a rose or copper colored external reflection.
- Solar control coatings having a layer stack of glass/Si3N4/NiCr/Si 3 N4 are known in the art, where the metallic NiCr layer is the sole infrared (IR) reflecting layer in the coating.
- the NiCr IR reflecting layer may be nitrided. While such layer stacks provide efficient solar control and low DE* values (more color matchability), the reflection color obtained by such layer stacks has never been worked upon.
- a known solar control coating having a layer stack of glass/Si 3 N4/NiCrN/Si 3 N4 has an external a* value in a range between -8 to +2; and b* value in a range between -2 to +8.
- U.S. patent number 6926967 describes a heat treatable coated article with NiCrN acting as the IR reflecting layer. While the invention relates to achieving approximately the same color characteristics as viewed by the naked eye before and after heat treatment, the external reflection color obtained by the coated articles is not explicitly disclosed.
- the glass article coated with the solar control coating has an external glass side a* value ranging between 0 to -2.5 and b* value ranging between 0 to 3; and transmission a* value ranging between 0 to 2 and b* value ranging between -3 to -9.
- the examples described in the patent disclose rather the color change (DE*) after heat treatment. However, a glass article having an external a* and b* value equal to 0 would exhibit a neutral color and a glass article having an external a* and b* equal to -2.5 and 3, respectively would exhibit a slight greenish yellow color.
- a laminated glazing provided with a stack of thin layers for solar control comprising the layers Si 3 N 4 / NiCrN/ Si 3 N 4 on the surface of the glass.
- the glazing is reported to have a neutral reflectance to not cause any inconvenience to the users.
- the color of the external and internal refection of these coated articles can be improved upon by working on the dielectric layers of the solar control layer stack.
- the external reflection of the solar control coated articles can be varied by varying the coating thickness of the S13N4 layers of the solar control layer stack which unfortunately result in undesirable interferences in the multilayer coating.
- the present disclosure relates to a heat treatable solar control glass article that comprises of a thin multilayer stack comprising an alloy nitride functional layer sandwiched between two transparent dielectric layers provided on one side of a transparent substrate.
- the thickness of the alloy nitride functional layer and the dielectric layer is designed in such a way that it gives rose or copper colored external appearance on the other side of the transparent substrate while retaining its solar control properties and low DE* value, without undue interferences to the other properties of the multilayer stack.
- these coatings can block part of the solar spectra very efficiently in addition to having a rose or copper colored appearance from outside the building.
- coated articles may be used as heat-treated and non-heat-treated articles and when heat- treated exhibit a high color matchability to their non-heat-treated counterparts.
- the light transmission from exterior to interior of a building incorporated with these heat treatable solar control glass articles is also decreased thereby reducing glare for the building occupants.
- a heat treatable solar control glass article having rose or copper color glass side reflection comprising a transparent substrate having a first surface provided with a thin multilayer coating.
- the multilayer coating comprises of one or more nickel or niobium alloy nitride functional layers, each sandwiched between two transparent dielectric layers.
- the thickness of the dielectric layer provided above the functional layer is greater than 100 nm and less than 160 nm and that of the dielectric layer provided above the transparent substrate is greater than 10 nm and less than 40 nm.
- FIG. 1 illustrates a heat treatable solar control glass article, according to one embodiment of the present disclosure
- FIG. 1A illustrates a heat treatable solar control glass article, according to another embodiment of the present disclosure
- FIG. 2 illustrates a transparent substrate, according to one embodiment of the present disclosure
- FIG. 3 illustrates a rose or copper colored solar control glass article, according to another embodiment of the present disclosure.
- Embodiments disclosed herein are related to heat treatable solar control glass articles having rose or copper color glass side reflection.
- FIG. 1 A heat treatable solar control glass article 100 according to one embodiment of the present disclosure is illustrated in FIG. 1.
- the heat treatable solar control glass article 100 comprises of a glass substrate 110 provided with a multilayer coating 200.
- the multilayer coating 200 comprises of at least one nickel or niobium alloy nitride functional layer 120, each sandwiched between two transparent dielectric layers l30a, l30b.
- the dielectric layer l30a is in direct contact with the glass substrate 110 and the dielectric layer l30b is provided above the alloy nitride functional layer 120.
- the alloy nitride functional layer 120 comprises at least one nitride of a metal alloy selected from the group consisting of NbCr, NiCr, NiCrMo and NbZr.
- the alloy nitride functional layer 120 comprises of nickel, chromium and nitrogen.
