Abstract

A material includes a glass sheet coated on at least part of one of the faces thereof with a stack of thin layers, the stack of thin layers being coated on at least part of the surface thereof with an enamel layer not including bismuth, the enamel layer being coated with a non-stick layer.

Claims (29)

1. A laminated bent glazing, comprising:

a material comprising a glass sheet coated on at least part of one face thereof with a stack of thin layers, said stack of thin layers being coated on at least part of a surface thereof with an enamel layer not comprising bismuth such that said stack of thin layers is arranged between said face of the glass sheet and the enamel layer and the enamel layer is in contact with the stack of thin layers, said enamel layer being coated with a non-stick layer such that said enamel layer is arranged between said stack of thin layers and said non-stick layer;

an additional glass sheet, and

a lamination interlayer,

wherein the material is adhesively bonded to the additional glass sheet by the lamination interlayer such that the enamel layer and the stack of thin layers are facing said lamination interlayer and arranged between the glass sheet and the lamination interlayer.

2. The laminated bent glazing according to claim 1 , wherein the stack of thin layers comprises at least one layer based on a nitride.

3. The laminated bent glazing according to claim 1 , wherein the stack of thin layers comprises at least one functional layer.

4. The laminated bent glazing according to claim 1 , wherein the enamel layer is based on zinc borosilicate.

5. The laminated bent glazing according to claim 1 , wherein the enamel layer is opaque, has a black hue, and forms a strip at the periphery of the glass sheet.

6. The laminated bent glazing according to claim 1 , wherein the non-stick layer is a layer based on refractory particles.

7. The laminated bent glazing according to claim 1 , wherein the non-stick layer is a sol-gel layer.

8. The laminated bent glazing according to claim 1 , wherein the additional glass sheet has a thickness of between 0.5 and 1.2 mm.

9. The laminated bent glazing according to claim 1 , wherein the additional glass sheet carries, on the face opposite the face facing the lamination interlayer, an additional stack of thin layers.

10. The laminated bent glazing according to claim 2 , wherein the at least one layer based on a nitride is a nitride of at least one element selected from aluminum, silicon, zirconium, titanium.

11. The laminated bent glazing according to claim 3 , wherein the at least one functional layer is an electrically conductive functional layer.

12. The laminated bent glazing according to claim 11 , wherein the at least one electrically conductive functional layer is selected from metal layers and layers of a transparent conductive oxide.

13. The laminated bent glazing according to claim 6 , wherein the refractory particles are pigments.

14. The laminated bent glazing according to claim 7 , wherein the sol-gel layer is a silica layer.

15. The laminated bent glazing according to claim 1 , wherein the enamel layer and the stack of thin layers are on face 2 of the laminated bent glazing.

16. The laminated bent glazing according to claim 12 , wherein the metal layers are silver or niobium layers and the layers of a transparent conductive oxide are selected from indium tin oxide, doped tin oxides, and doped zinc oxides.

17. A method for obtaining a laminated bent glazing according to claim 1 , comprising:

providing said material and the additional glass sheet, then

simultaneously bending the material and the additional glass sheet, then

laminating said material with the additional glass sheet, by the lamination interlayer, such that the enamel layer and the stack of thin layers are facing said interlayer.

18. The method according to claim 17 , further comprising:

providing the glass sheet coated on at least part of one of faces thereof with the stack of thin layers, then

depositing, on the at least part of the surface of the stack of thin layers, the enamel layer not comprising bismuth, then

depositing, on said enamel layer, the non-stick layer.

19. The method according to claim 18 , wherein the depositing of the enamel layer and the depositing of the non-stick layer are carried out by screen printing.
