The invention relates to a light extraction substrate having a light extraction layer. The light extraction layer includes boron, boroate, and/or borosilicate as well as nanoparticles.

Provided is a glass panel unit that reduces the chances of an electric wire extended being disconnected. A glass panel unit includes a first panel, a second panel, a seal, a connecting void, and an electric wire. The first panel includes a first glass pane. The second panel includes a second glass pane and is arranged to face the second glass pane. The seal has a frame shape and hermetically bonds respective peripheral edge portions of the first panel and the second panel to create an internal space between the first panel and the second panel. The connecting void is provided for a portion, other than a portion facing the internal space, of at least one of the first panel or the second panel. The electric wire is extended from the internal space to the connecting void by passing through the seal.

The optical structure has a physical thickness of greater than or equal to 500 nm and a maximum hardness of 10 GPa or greater, as measured on the outer surface of the optical coating by a Berkovich Indenter Test along an indentation depth of 50 nm or greater. The scratch resistant layer has a physical thickness from 200 nm to 5000 nm.

The present invention relates to an article, especially a cooktop or a furniture element, comprising at least one substrate, such as a plate, made of glass-ceramic, said substrate being coated in at least one zone with a paint comprising at least: 1) a silicone resin comprising methyl and phenyl groups, 2) one or more lamellar inorganic fillers with a thickness of less than 2 μm and with lateral dimensions, for at least 80% by weight of said fillers, of between 10 μm and 65 μm, including at least: 2a) mica(s), and 2b) talc and/or one or more carbonates, 3) one or more black pigments.

The present invention also relates to a process for obtaining said article.

A method of manufacturing a coated glass article that includes (i) preparing a glass substrate having a first and second opposed main surfaces, (ii) irradiating at least the first main surface of the glass substrate with a laser to form at least one separating line defining contour lines, for dividing at least one glass article from the glass substrate, the glass article having a shape and/or size different from the glass substrate of step (i), (iii) chemically strengthening the glass substrate on which at least one separating line is formed, the separating line extending in a depth direction from the first main surface to the second main surface, and (iv) separating of the at least one glass article from the glass substrate according to the at least one separating line. In addition, the glass substrate is coated between steps (iii) and (iv).
