  • Patent number: 10308547
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a hollow glass, such as a bottle, glass, flask or pot, consisting of a glass substrate having, on at least one portion of its outer wall, a hydrophilic organic coating, for instance based on polyvinyl alcohol crosslinked with at least one acid selected from citric acid, polyacrylic acid and poly(acrylic acid-co-maleic acid). In order to manufacture this hollow glass, a solution containing the ingredients for forming the coating and at least one solvent is applied to the glass substrate by spraying, dip-coating or, when the hydrophilic organic coating is a partial coating, by spraying onto the outer wall of the glass substrate on which a mask has been applied, or by screenprinting; the glass substrate coated with said solution is dried; and the substrate is cured thermally or by UV radiation or by electron beam. It is possible to use this hollow glass for revealing a pattern thereon when said hollow glass is removed from a cold storage zone.

  • Patent number: 10077209
    Abstract: A glazing unit includes a hydrophilic layer including a polyurethane network incorporating bis-urea functions. Furthermore, a process for manufacturing this glazing unit, includes depositing a solution containing at least one isocyanate, one polyol and one bis-urea including a polyol function, polyvinylpyrrolidone, a film-forming agent and a solvent on a glass substrate, drying the glazing unit containing the substrate and the deposited solution, and subjecting the glazing unit to a temperature of between 100 and 150° C.
