Abstract: Substrate with Antimicrobial Properties An antimicrobial substrate (glass, ceramic or metallic) coated on at least one of its surface with at least one mixed layer deposited by a sputtering under vacuum magnetically enhanced process is described. The layer comprising at least one antimicrobial agent mixed to binder material chosen amongst the metal oxides, oxynitrides, oxycarbides or nitrides. This substrate present antimicrobial properties, in particular bactericidal activity even when no thermal treatment has been applied. If a tempered and antimicrobial glass is required, the same co-sputtering process can be used, optionally an underlayer can be added. Antimicrobial properties are maintained even after a tempering process.

Abstract: A process for the production of a substrate having antimicrobial properties is described. It comprises a step consisting of the déposition of a métal non-gelling layer comprising an inorganic antimicrobial agent, starting from a precursor, in métal, colloid, chelate or ion form on at least one of the surfaces of the glass substrate; and a step consisting of the diffusion of the agent into said at least one surface of the substrate by thermal treatment. Alternatively, the substrate may be coated with an underlayer or a topcoat and the diffusion occurs either in the underlayer or in the topcoat. Glass and metallic substrates having antimicrobial properties are also described. In particular, a substrate exhibiting a bactericidal activity measured in accordance with standard JIS Z 2801 of higher than log 2.

Abstract: Glass sheets, in particular lacquered glass sheets, wherein the coating comprises a first layer comprising an enamel and a second layer comprising a resin. Such glass sheets may be heat treated and, before heat treatment, may be handled and transported without damaging the coating, may be cut and ground without causing the coating to peel off or to be damaged at the borders of the cutting line, and offer a good resistance under running water avoiding the peeling off or destruction of the coating.

Abstract: Process for the selective etching of a glass article surface with a hydrofluoric acidic solution, comprising a first step of selective protection of the surface with a wax deposited by an ink-jet head, a second attack step by the acidic solution and a third cleaning step of the surface.
