Diamond-like carbon coated pet film and pet film glass laminate glazing structures for added hardness and abrasion resistance

摘要

The present invention is a non-metallic article that has been coated with a diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating. A DLC coated article of the present invention has increased hardness and increased abrasion resistance when compared with these same properties of the article prior to the article being coated. DLC coatings of the present invention are applied in a chamber filled with hydrocarbon plasma and with application of electrical pulses.
