Process of manufacturing self-cleaning window glass or glass building facade involves atomised application of silicon agent to titanium oxide surface

摘要

In a process of manufacturing self-cleaning window glass, the glass is sputter-coated with a multi-layered system with photo-catalytic properties. Material containing silicon (SiO2-x(OH)2x), where x is from 0-2 is separated from a supply by flame pyrolysis at up to 500[deg]C and is then atomised and coated onto a titanium oxide surface. The silicon oxide layer is from 5 to 200 nm.
