To provide a glass plate which is hardly broken and which has a high infrared transmittance.

A glass plate, which has a thickness of from 1 to 8 mm, has an infrared transmittance T3000 at a wavelength of 3,000 nm of at least 4%, an average thermal expansion coefficient a at from 50 to 350° C. of from 15 to 35×10.sup.−7/° C., and a glass composition comprising, as represented by mol% based on oxides, from 50 to 85% of SiO.sub.2, from 0.1 to 25% of Al.sub.2O.sub.3, from 0.1 to 20% of B.sub.2O.sub.3, from 0 to 20% in total of at least one member selected from MgO, CaO, SrO, BaO and ZnO, and from 0 to 20% in total of at least one member selected from Li.sub.2O, Na.sub.2O and K.sub.2O.

A method for winding up a glass ribbon is provided, in which, prior to winding up the glass ribbon, the two surfaces of the glass ribbon are each initially treated with a water-containing medium and subsequently dried so as to produce a defined content of water molecules on the two surfaces, by achieving a saturation of the surfaces of the glass ribbon with water, without bringing about an excess of water molecules. A glass roll is produced in which the electrostatic charge of the glass surface is reduced and, as a result, any undesired excess adherence of the glass surface to an interleaf material is prevented and, in this way, glass breakage, in particular during winding up and/or unwinding of the glass roll, can be markedly reduced.

The invention relates to a coated glass substrate or glass ceramic substrate with resistant, multi-functional surface properties, including a combination of anti-microbial, anti-reflective and anti-fingerprint properties, or a combination of anti-microbial, anti-reflective and anti-fingerprint properties where the substrate is chemically pre-stressed, or a combination of anti-microbial and anti-reflective properties where the substrate is chemically pre-stressed. The coated glass substrate or glass ceramic substrate exhibits a unique combination of functions which are permanently present and do not exert a negative effect on each other.

A photosensitive conductive paste that contains(a) a conductive powder in an amount of 70.3 to 85.6 mass % with respect to the total amount of the photosensitive conductive paste; (b) a photosensitive resin composition containing an alkali-soluble polymer, a photosensitive monomer, a pnotopolym.erization initiator, and a solvent; and (c) a glass frit. The mass ratio of the glass frit to the conductive powder is 0.020 to 0.054, and the glass frit has a softening point that is equal to or above the temperature at which sintering of the conductive powder starts.

A coated container includes: a container having a surface; and a coating applied to at least part of the surface to form a coated surface. Leaching of at least one of one or more types of ions or one or more types of compounds is determined by performing an alkaline treatment on at least part of the coated surface to obtain an alkaline treated surface and performing an acidic treatment on at least part of the alkaline treated surface to obtain an acidic treated surface. The leaching of the at least one of one or more types of ions or one or more types of compounds from the coated surface is 5.00 mg/l or less.

A method of performing ion exchange of a thin, flexible glass substrate having an average thickness equal to or less than about 0.3 mm to chemically strengthen the glass substrate is disclosed. The chemically strengthened glass substrate comprises a first compressive stress layer having a first depth of layer, and a second compressive stress layer having a second depth of layer, the first and second stress layers being separated by a layer of tensile stress. A laminated article comprising the chemically strengthened glass substrate is also described.
