Patent number: 10822268Abstract: A splash screen, and a process for making a splash screen, comprising a glass sheet, the glass sheet comprising, a substrate of soda lime silica glass having a coating deposited on at least at least a first surface, the coating comprising a corrosion-protection layer deposited directly on the first surface of the substrate, the corrosion-protection layer having a thickness in the range 24 nm to 125 nm and comprising pyrolytically deposited silica with intentional doping of 7 atom % or lower. The splash screen provides reduced moisture induced corrosion of the glass surface.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2016Date of Patent: November 3, 2020Assignee: Pilkington Group LimitedInventors: Simon James Hurst, Anna Louise Colley, Peter Michael Harris, Kieran James Cheetham
