Abstract
The invention concerns reflective opaque panels that can be used as facing panels or decorative panels. They consist of a substrate coated with a stack of layers comprising, in the following order, at least (i) a transparent substrate (S), (ii) a first dielectric layer which is a high refractive index dielectric layer (H1), (iii) a second dielectric layer which is a low refractive index dielectric layer (L1), and (vi) a single chromium-based layer.
Claims18
A substrate coated with a stack of layers comprising, in order, at least:
- i. a transparent substrate (S);
- ii. a first dielectric layer consisting essentially of TixZryOz (TZO), wherein x, y and z are each a number greater than 0, which is a high refractive index dielectric layer (H1) with a refractive index n at a wavelength of 550 nm between 2.1 and 2.8;
- iii. a second dielectric layer having an optical thickness of from 95 nm to 200 nm which is a low refractive index dielectric layer (L1) with a refractive index n at a wavelength of 550 nm between 1.4 and 1.8;
- iv. optionally, a third dielectric layer consisting essentially of TZO;
- and
- v. a single layer (C) consisting essentially of chromium,
- wherein a glass-side light reflectance is greater than 50% and a coating-side light reflectance is greater than 50%,
- wherein the first dielectric layer is in direct contact with the transparent substrate,
- wherein when the third dielectric layer (H2) is present, the optical thickness of the third dielectric layer (H2) is 95% or less of the optical thickness of the first dielectric layer, and
- wherein the coated substrate has a light transmission of at most 2%, and
- the coated substrate is thermally temperable such that after a heat treatment in a static furnace at 670° for four minutes the light transmission remains at most 2%.
