摘要

Methods and apparatus are provide for: a glass substrate having first and second opposing surfaces, and a plurality of edge surfaces extending transversely between the first and second opposing surfaces; a layer disposed on, and adhered to, at least one of the first, second, and edge surfaces of the substrate, where the layer includes: (i) one of an oligomer and resin; (ii) a monomer; and (iii) nanometer-sized silica particles of at least about 2-50 weight percent.
