Described herein are articles and methods of making articles, for example glass articles, comprising a thin sheet and a carrier, wherein the thin sheet and carrier are bonded together using a modification (coating) layer, for example a coating layer comprising a cationic surfactant or a coating layer comprising an organic salt, and associated deposition methods. The modification layer bonds the thin sheet and carrier together with sufficient bond strength to prevent delamination of the thin sheet and the carrier during high temperature (? 500° C.) processing while also preventing formation of a permanent bond between the sheets during such processing.

A coated glass article includes a glass article comprising a glass having a surface. The surface has an adhesion promoting region comprising a nanostructure formed at the surface of the glass. The adhesion promoting region is constructed of materials that are the same as one or more constituents of a glass composition of the glass. The coated glass article further includes a coating disposed on the adhesion promoting region formed at the surface of the glass. The coating incudes one or more polymer coating materials. The adhesion promoting region improves adhesion of the coating to the glass while also eliminating the use of titania or other adhesion promoting compounds that can adversely affect the optical properties of the coatings.

Provided is an antireflective member that has a water- and oil-repellent layer on a multi-layered antireflective layer and is capable of exhibiting excellent surface lubricity, water- and oil-repellent properties, and durability. The surface of the multi-layered antireflective layer on a base material has a root-mean-square surface roughness of 0.8 nm to 2.0 nm. The water- and oil-repellent layer has a thickness of 1 to 30 nm and is a cured product of water- and oil-repellents having as principal components a fluorooxyalkylene group-containing polymer modified organosilicon compound with the numerical average molecular weight of 4,500 to 10,000 of a fluoropolymer part and/or partial hydrolysis condensate thereof.

A system and method of production of matt effect or matt glass that eliminates the double-sided printing process in the production process of glasses used in products such as ovens, refrigerators, bottle cabinets, combi boilers, built-in appliances, fume hoods, stove glass, etc., prevents fingerprints on glass and increases the scratch resistance.

A coated glass container includes: a glass surface; and a coating that coats at least part of the glass surface to form a coated glass surface. The coating includes at least one layer. The coated glass container fulfills the following parameter: leaching of [Na] ions after an alkaline treatment is 10 mg/l or less [Na] ions.

The present invention relates to a nano-protrusion forming method and a base material having a nano-protrusion surface formed by the method. The method includes forming an anti-reflective layer including nano-protrusions having a width of several nm to several tens of nm, and/or an anti-glare layer including protrusions having a width of several tens of nm to several μm, by a wet etching process using an acid solution without using a nano-mask.

The present disclosure relates to an ultrathin glass comprising a coating layer, wherein the coating layer comprises a top surface coating layer formed on the top surface of the ultrathin glass and a side surface coating layer that is connected to the top surface coating layer and covers the side surface of the ultrathin glass, and a method for preparing the same.

The present invention relates to a glass plate which is provided with a first main surface, and a second main surface which faces the first main surface. An antiglare portion and a non-antiglare portion are provided to the first main surface. The average lengths (RSm) of elements of roughness curves of the antiglare portion and the non-antiglare portion are respectively 1 μm or higher. The difference between the RSm of the antiglare portion and the RSm of the non-antiglare portion is 100 μm or lower.

The present application discloses a cleaning apparatus and system, including: a transmission assembly; a drive assembly, connected to the transmission assembly and located lower than the transmission assembly; a cleaning assembly, located higher than the transmission assembly; and a waterproof structure, located between the drive assembly and the cleaning assembly.

Provided are methods of forming stacks comprising a substrate and one or more sol-gel layers disposed on the substrate. Also provided are stacks formed by these methods. The sol-gel layers in these stacks, especially outer layers, may have a porosity of less than 1% or even less than 0.5%. In some embodiments, these layers may have a surface roughness (R.sub.a) of less than 1 nanometers. The sol-gel layers may be formed using radiative curing and/or thermal curing at temperatures of between 400° C. and 700° C. or higher. These temperatures allow application of sol-gel layers on new types of substrates. A sol-gel solution, used to form these layers, may have colloidal nanoparticles with a size of less than 20 Angstroms on average. This small size and narrow size distribution is believed to control the porosity of the resulting sol-gel layers.
