Abstract: A laminated glazing, including a first pane having an inner and an outer surface, a second pane having an inner and an outer surface, and a thermoplastic interlayer. The thermoplastic interlayer connects the inner surface of the first pane to the inner surface of the second pane, the thermoplastic interlayer is formed from at least one thermoplastic film layer containing at least 10% of recycled material, and at least one of the inner surface of the first pane or the inner surface of the second pane is provided with a functional coating including a topcoat layer based on a mixed nitride of silicon and zirconium.

Abstract: A heat treatable solar control glazing showing low-emissivity properties, and possibly also anti-solar properties, and methods to manufacture such a glazing. The glazing comprises a transparent substrate coated with a stack of thin layers comprising n functional layer(s) reflecting infrared radiation and n+1 dielectric layers, with n?1, each functional layer being surrounded by dielectric layers. At least one dielectric layer above a functional layer comprises a layer consisting essentially of silicon oxide deposited by PECVD, and the stack comprises a barrier layer based on zinc oxide above and in direct contact with any functional layer which has a silicon oxide layer in the dielectric layer directly above it.

Abstract: The present invention provides a polymer composite material structure comprising at least one layer of a foamed polymer composite material comprising a foamed polymer matrix and 0.1 wt % to 6 wt % carbon based conductive loads, such as e.g. carbon nanotubes, dispersed in the foamed polymer matrix. The polymer composite material structure according to embodiments of the present invention shows good shielding and absorbing properties notwithstanding the low amount of carbon based conductive loads. The present invention furthermore provides a method for forming a polymer composite material structure comprising carbon based conductive loads.
