Method for applying a polymer powder onto a pre-heated glass substrate and the resulting article

摘要

A method of forming a polymer backing on a glass substrate through the use of a pre-polymer powder applied onto the surface of the substrate. The backing is applied on-line in an existing substrate manufacturing or fabricating process while the substrate is at a high enough temperature to polymerize the powder. The resulting backed substrate is durable and abrasion resistant and exhibits excellent opacification and adhesion properties.
