Process for manufacturing glass with functional coating

Abstract

Disclosed herein is a process for manufacturing glass with functional coating by the steps of: 1) forming a film on a predetermined portion of a glass plate by screen-printing of a liquid for forming functional coating which contains therein a metal oxide material; and 2) subjecting the glass plate to the bending treatment and/or tempering treatment by heating the same, with simultaneous baking of the printed film to thereby form the functional coating containing the metal oxide as the principal constituent. Disclosed also is a process for manufacturing glass with functional coating as a combiner for head-up display, wherein, after forming the functional coating by simultaneously bending and/or tempering of the glass plate and baking the printed film, as in the above-mentioned process, the glass plate with the functional coating thereon is joined together with another sheet of glass plate with interposition of a plastic intermediate film between them in a manner to cause the surface of the glass plate, on which the functional coating has been formed, to be exposed outside to thereby obtain a laminated glass plate.
