Abstract: An index-matching coating is applied directly to a low-emissivity (“lowE”) thin-film coating. Nodules growing from a site in the lowE coating are removed to avoid propagation of defects through the layers of the index-matching coating. A tempering step in an oxygen-containing atmosphere produces compressive stress in the lowE coating and hardens the coating. The compressive stress facilitates removal of the nodules and the hardening allows mechanical cleaning of the lowE coating prior to the index-matching coating, further removing nodules. Magnesium-fluoride is used as the final layer of the index-matching coating in one embodiment to improve abrasion resistance. The resulting glass panel may be used as a display panel in a plasma display or an organic light-emitting diode display, for example.

Abstract: In manufacture of a glass architectural panel (FIG. 1) an aluminium foil is bonded to a glass sheet via a layer of thermosetting polyester powder-coating material. The powder is deposited on the foil as the foil unrolls and is melted to provide a fused layer which is then cooled to solidify the layer and arrest progress of curing. The solidified layer is sprayed with a silane adhesion promoter, before being heated momentarily to enable the foil with its adhering and solidified, but uncured, layer, to be rolled up for storage. The rolled foil is transferred nearer to a float-glass production line, where, after being heated to allow it to be unrolled, it is fed onto a hot glass sheet emerging from the line. The fused layer melts as it is brought down with the backing foil to contact the glass sheet and fulfil the cure of the powder material so as to establish the bond. Instead of a single foil, several may be provided overlapping one another (FIG. 3).
