Abstract
A glass sheet includes a tempered mineral glass substrate bearing, on one of its faces, a low-emissivity transparent coating and, on this coating, an enamel layer containing one or more ceramic pigments, the enamel layer covering only a portion of the low-emissivity layer and leaving another part thereof free. At least 50% by weight, preferably at least 80% by weight, and in particular at least 95% by weight of the ceramic pigments are chosen from ceramic pigments that reflect near-infrared radiation (NIR) having a reflectance at 1000 nm, determined according to the standard ASTM E 903, at least equal to 40% and a lightness L* of less than 30. It also relates to a process for manufacturing such a sheet and to an oven or refrigerator door containing such a sheet.
