| 20100173141 | COATED NON-METALLIC SHEET HAVING A BRUSHED METAL APPEARANCE, AND COATINGS FOR AND METHOD OF MAKING SAME - A method of making an article that exhibits a metallic appearance includes treating a surface of a non-metallic substrate, e.g. a glass sheet to have a textured surface, and applying an overlay, e.g. a coating over the pattern. The percent of visible light transmittance, and percent visible light reflectance, of the substrate and the overlay is selected such that the pattern is visible when the article is viewed through one of the surfaces of the substrate or overlay. Also provided is a heatable coating having a low emissivity that can be used as the overlay. | 07-08-2010 |
| 20100203239 | COATING COMPOSITION WITH SOLAR PROPERTIES - A method of coating a substrate is disclosed. The method includes providing a substrate; depositing an infrared reflecting layer over at least a portion of a substrate; depositing a primer layer over at least a portion of the infrared reflective layer; depositing a dielectric layer over at least a portion of the primer layer; and forming an absorbing layer.

| 20100242953 | SOLAR REFLECTING MIRROR HAVING A PROTECTIVE COATING AND METHOD OF MAKING SAME - A solar reflecting mirror includes a shaped glass substrate having a focal area, a reflective coating over its convex surface and a sodium ion barrier layer over its concave surface. The shaped substrate has a strain pattern having a radial tension strain at the bottom area, and circumferential compression strain at the periphery of the substrate. As the distance from the periphery of the shaped substrate increases, the circumferential compression strain decreases to a “transition line” where circumferential tension strain begins. As the distance from the transition line in a direction toward the bottom area of the glass substrate increases, the circumferential tension increases. To compensate for the strain pattern in the shaped glass substrate to avoid buckling of, and surface cracks of, the barrier layer, the barrier layer including an oxide of silicon and aluminum thickness, among other things is varied on. A method of making the solar mirror from shaped sections is also discussed. | 09-30-2010 |
