Abstract
Disclosed herein is a coated glass element including a glass component and a coating adhered to the glass component through siloxane linkages, the coating having at least one of an anti-reflective property, a high abrasion resistance property and a hydrophobic property, wherein the coating comprises a dried gel formed from at least one hydrolyzed alkoxysilane-based sol and at least one hydrolyzed organosilane-based sol.
Claims30
A coated glass element, comprising:
- a glass component;
- and
- a coating adhered to the glass component through siloxane linkages, the coating having at least one of an anti-reflective property, a high abrasion resistance property and a hydrophobic property;
- wherein the coating comprises a dried gel formed from at least one hydrolyzed alkoxysilane-based sol and at least one hydrolyzed organosilane-based sol.

A coated glass element, comprising:
- a float glass component;
- and
- a coating adhered to a tin-side of the float glass component through siloxane linkages, the coating having at least one of an anti-reflective property, a high abrasion resistance property, and a hydrophobic property,
- wherein the coating comprises a dried gel formed from a combination of sols comprising:
- a hydrolyzed organosilane-based sol and a hydrolyzed alkoxysilane-based sol,
- wherein the coated glass element has greater light transmission than a coated glass element wherein the coating is adhered to a non-tin-side of the float glass component, and
- wherein the high abrasion resistance property of the coating is tunable by varying relative proportions of the hydrolyzed organosilane and the hydrolyzed alkoxysilane.
