An electronic device may include electrical components and other components mounted within a housing. The device may have a display on a front face of the device and may have a glass layer that forms part of the housing on a rear face of the device. The glass layer and other glass structures in the electronic device may be provided with coatings. An interior coating on a glass layer may include multiple layers of material such as an adhesion promotion layer, thin-film layers of materials such as silicon, niobium oxide and other metal oxides, and metals to help adjust the appearance of the coating. A metal layer may be formed on top of the coating to serve as an environmental protection layer and opacity enhancement layer. In some configurations, the coating may include four layers.

The present disclosure relates to a method for manufacturing a decoration element, the method including depositing a light reflective layer having a structure of two or more islands separated from each other on one surface of a light absorbing layer; and dry etching the light absorbing layer using the island as a mask, wherein a resistance value of the decoration element after the dry etching of the light absorbing layer increases by two times or more compared to before the dry etching of the light absorbing layer.

Glass elements are provided that include a coating and a sheet-like glass substrate. The sheet-like glass substrate has a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface. The coating is disposed in at least some areas of at least one of the first and second surfaces. The coating is an inorganic glass-based coating that includes at least one glassy component; at least one pigment comprising pigment particles; and a filler. The filler is inorganic and includes filler particles with a d.sub.50 value, based on an equivalent diameter, of at least 0.1 μm and less than 10 μm.

Deadfront articles that include a tactile element formed on a first surface of a substrate and a visual element disposed on a second surface of the substrate opposite the first surface. The tactile element is positioned on the first surface of the substrate in a complimentary fashion to the visual element disposed on the second surface of the substrate. The tactile element may include a surface roughness portion having a surface roughness different than the surface roughness of an area bordering the surface roughness portion. The deadfront articles may be incorporated into an automobile interior to provide a visual and haptic display interface for a user.

A coating material for the production of a UV-curing primer coating. The coating material includes at least 60 to 90 wt.-% of at least one monofunctional cycloaliphatic acrylate monomer or at least one monofunctional aryloxy alkyl acrylate monomer, 1 to 10 wt.-% of at least one amino-functional silane, 1 to 10 wt.-% of at least one photoinitiator, and up to 10 wt.-% of at least one of at least one acrylate oligomer and at least one methacrylate oligomer, each based on a total weight of the coating material.

Provided is a glass-glass laminate. The glass-glass laminate includes a lower glass layer, an adhesive layer on the lower glass layer, an upper glass layer on the adhesive layer, and a decoration layer between the lower glass layer and the adhesive layer or between the upper glass layer and the adhesive layer, in which the adhesive layer includes a room-temperature adhesive material.

A glass container has an outer glass surface with an inkjet printed image provided on the surface. An at least partially water soluble cold-end coating (CEC) with a thickness from 0.002 to 10 micrometers is present between the outer glass surface and the inkjet printed image. The glass container is preferably a one-way beverage bottle. A method of inkjet printing an image on a glass container comprises the steps of (a) manufacturing a glass container having an at least partially water soluble CEC layer with a thickness from 0.002 to 10 micrometers, and (b) inkjet printing an image on the glass container.

A decorated glass sheet comprising an essentially flat sheet body with a pair of opposite plane and parallel faces; in which a first face of the pair of faces of the sheet body has a satin finish, and in which a second face of the pair of faces is provided with: at least one decorative layer made of one or more colored paints defining a non-uniform decorative pattern replicating the aspect of marble, and a cover layer made from a substantially non-transparent colored paint, arranged above and in direct contact with the decorative layer so that the decorative layer is interposed between the sheet body and the cover layer.
