Abstract:
An object of the present invention is to provide a heat ray shielding laminated glass which has excellent flatness and adhesion between a glass substrate and a heat ray shielding film unit, and has a reduced glass scattering rate even when the glass substrate is damaged by an external impact, and a manufacturing method therefor.The heat ray shielding laminated glass of the present invention is a heat ray shielding laminated glass which is formed by press bonding of a pair of glass substrates on both surfaces of a heat ray shielding film unit A, which has a heat ray shielding film having at least one heat ray shielding layer on a transparent resin film and at least one adhesive layer, the heat ray shielding laminated glass being characterized in that the heat ray shielding film unit A has an average moisture content 1.0% by mass or less as determined by TG-DTA (simultaneous measurement of thermogravimetry•differential thermal analysis).

A coated substrate. The coated substrate includes a unitary substrate having a major surface. A first coating is applied to a first surface segment of the major surface. A second coating applied to a second surface segment of the major surface. The first coating is different than the second coating.
Abstract:
This transparent layered element (1) has two smooth outer main surfaces (2A, 4A) and comprises: two outer layers (2, 4), which each form one of the two outer main surfaces (2A, 4A) of the element (1) and which are constituted of dielectric materials having substantially the same refractive index (n2, n4), and a central layer (3) inserted between the two outer layers, this central layer (3) being formed either by a single layer which is a dielectric layer having a refractive index different from that of the outer layers or a metal layer, or by a stack of layers which comprises at least one dielectric layer having a refractive index different from that of the outer layers or a metal layer. Each contact surface (S0, S1) between two adjacent layers of the element (1), which are one a dielectric layer and the other a metal layer, or which are two dielectric layers having different refractive indices, is textured and parallel to the other textured contact surfaces.
Abstract:
Embodiment of a strengthened glass laminate comprise at least one layer of strengthened glass having a first surface and a second surface disposed opposite the first surface, and one or more coatings adhered to the first surface of the strengthened glass, wherein the one or more coatings impart an asymmetric impact resistance to the glass laminate.
Abstract:
Certain example embodiments of this invention relate to heatable glass substrates that may be used in connection with lighting applications, and/or methods of making the same. In certain example embodiments, a glass substrate supports an antireflective (AR) coating on a first major surface thereof, and a conductive coating on a second, opposite major surface thereof. Bus bars connect the conductive coating to a power source in certain example embodiments. The substrate may be heat treated (e.g., heat strengthened and/or thermally tempered), with one or both coatings thereon. The heatable glass substrate thus may help provide a chemical and/or environmental barrier for the luminaire or lighting system disposed behind it. In addition, or in the alternative, the heatable glass substrate may help reduce the amount of moisture (e.g., snow, rain, ice, fog, etc.) that otherwise could accumulate on the luminaire or lighting system.

Abstract:
The subject of the invention is an element having variable optical properties, comprising: (a) a system having electrically controlled variable light scattering, of the optical-valve or liquid-crystal system type, a suspended-particle system or a holographic or thermotropic system (anull) which is associated with (b) at least one absorbent element, absorbing at least in the visible range. It applies especially to the manufacture of backprojection screens.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a bent glass sheet with an optical instrument for a vehicle that irradiates light into the glass sheet. The bent glass sheet includes an antireflective film including at least two layers, and a silica-based film containing silicon oxide as a main component, wherein a main surface of the glass sheet has a first region to be equipped with the optical instrument, wherein the silica-based film is formed on the first region and the antireflective film is formed on a second region of the main surface.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a glass substrate having on at least one of its faces an antireflection coating formed by a stack of thin dielectric material layers having alternately high and low refractive indices. To prevent the modification of the optical properties of the coating in the case where the substrate is subject toga heat treatment such as tempering, bending or annealing, the layer or layers of the stack which are liable to deteriorate on contact with alkali ions such as sodium ions are separated form the substrate by at least one layer forming part of the antireflection coating and forming a “shield” with respect to the diffusion of alkali.
