Abstract:
As a protective insulating layer coating the outer surface of a electrochromic device of an electrochromic mirror, a coating film of synthetic resin material is used instead of a conventional glass substrate. Further, sufficient durability is ensured against usage environment. As the synthetic resin material, a solvent-soluble fluorine copolymer resin including a copolymer of a fluoroolefin monomer and an acrylate monomer is used. The resin is dissolved in a solvent to provide a coating fluid. The coating fluid is formed as the protective insulating layer covering the outer surface of the electrochromic device and the laminated end faces of the respective films.
Abstract:
A process for encapsulating an apparatus to restrict environmental element permeation between the apparatus and an external environment includes applying multiple barrier layers to the apparatus and preceding each layer application with a separate cleaning of the presently-exposed apparatus surface, resulting in an apparatus which includes an encapsulation stack, where the encapsulation stack includes a multi-layer stack of barrier layers. Each separate cleaning removes particles from the presently-exposed apparatus surface, exposing gaps in the barrier layer formed by the particles, and the subsequently-applied barrier layer at least partially fills the gaps, so that a permeation pathway through the encapsulation stack via gap spaces is restricted. The quantity of barrier layers applied to form the stack can be based on a determined probability that a stack of the particular quantity of barrier layers is independent of at least a certain quantity of continuous permeation pathways through the stack.
