  • Heat treatable coated article with zinc-doped zirconium based layer(s) in coating
    Patent number: 8318312
    Abstract: In certain example embodiments, a coated article includes a Zn-doped zirconium based layer before heat treatment (HT). The coated article is heat treated sufficiently to cause the Zn-doped zirconium based layer to transform into a Zn-doped zirconium oxide based layer that is scratch resistant and/or chemically durable. The doping of the layer with Zn has been found to improve scratch resistance and/or corrosion resistance.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 2, 2012
    Date of Patent: November 27, 2012
    Assignee: Guardian Industries Corp.
    Inventors: Rudolph Hugo Petrmichl, Douglas Klimesh, Jiangping Wang
