GLASS ARTICLE HAVING A SOLAR CONTROL COATING.

摘要

A glass article having a solar control coating is disclosed for use in producing heat reducing glass for architectural windows. The coated article includes a glass substrate, an iridescence-suppressing interlayer deposited on and adhering to the surface of the glass substrate. At least a first transparent coating deposited on and adhering to the surface of the iridescence-suppressing coating and at least a second transparent coating deposited on and adhering to the surface of the first transparent coating. The first transparent coating and the second transparent coating have a difference in refractive indices in the near infrared region greater than a difference in the refractive indices in the visible region. The use of the article in architectural glazing results in a glazing that rejects solar energy in the near infrared region while permitting the transmittance of a high degree of visible light.
