WET ETCHING SOLUTION COMPOSITION, WET ETCHING METHOD OF GLASS, AND PATTERNED GLASS BY THE WET ETCHING METHOD
A wet etching method according to the present disclosure includes cleaning the glass, forming a nanoscale pattern by wet-etching the cleaned glass, and cleaning and drying the nano-patterned glass, wherein a wet etching solution used in the wet etching includes hydrofluoric acid and a surfactant. According to the present disclosure, a glass having high transmittance/low reflectance can be provided. The glass can be applied to an optical device and a display including a mobile device.
Process For Cleaning Dirty Post-Consumer Waste Glass
A method is provided to clean glass mixed with non-glass undifferentiated trash. In the method, the glass pieces are cleaned without washing the glass pieces with water or a surfactant during the cleaning process. The non-glass contaminants are liberated from the glass by drying and abrasion, and then removed from the glass by screening and density separation.

Method for producing laminated glazing without enamel sticking to the back-glass
A process for manufacturing a laminated glazing that includes at least a first glass sheet and a second glass sheet, includes printing a face of the first glass sheet intended to be oriented toward the second glass sheet with a liquid enamel which is dried at a temperature not exceeding 400? C., then bending the first and second glass sheets together in contact with one another in their relative position of destination in the laminated glazing, by heating at a softening temperature of the glass, wherein the liquid enamel is an aqueous silicate paint including a refractory powder of pigments and a silicate binder powder, in the absence of glass frit, and wherein a weight ratio of pigments to silicates is greater than 1.
METHOD OF PREVENTING LAMELLAR SILICA FORMATION IN GLASS CONTAINER
Methods of screening a glass container for storing a pharmaceutical formulation for susceptibility to lamellar silica formation includes filling the container with a buffer for the pharmaceutical formulation, storing the container with the buffer and optically analyzing the buffer after storage for one or more particles in the buffer. The one or more particles can be analyzed to determine a morphology and chemical composition and the interior surface of the container, once emptied, can be analyzed for delamination type deformation. The presence of particles in the buffer having a chemical comprising silicon, oxygen, and carbon and the absence of delamination type deformation is indicative of susceptibility to lamellar silica formation.
