Abstract
An article having a scuff resistant lustrous coating. The article comprises a vitreous surface with an inorganic based luster pigment layer bonded to the vitreous surface. An organic layer covers the luster pigment layer to provide the scuff resistant coating. In one specific embodiment, the article is a glass container having the scuff resistant coating of the present invention.
Claims29
An article having a scuff resistant lustrous coating comprising an article having a vitreous surface, an inorganic based luster pigment layer comprising luster pigment particles bonded directly to said vitreous surface, and an organic layer covering said pigment layer to provide the scuff resistant lustrous coating, wherein the organic layer is selected from the group consisting of a polymer, a wax, a fatty acid ester and a salt of a fatty acid ester, and further wherein said bonded inorganic based luster pigment layer has a thickness greater than about 0.1 microns and less than about 25 microns.
A glass container or bottle having a scuff resistant lustrous coating comprising
- an inorganic based luster pigment layer comprising luster pigment particles bonded directly to said glass container or bottle, and an organic layer covering said pigment layer to provide the scuff resistant lustrous coating, wherein the organic layer is selected from the group consisting of a polymer, a wax, a fatty acid ester and a salt of a fatty acid ester, and further wherein said bonded inorganic based luster pigment layer has a thickness greater than about 0.1 microns and less than about 25 microns.
An article having a scuff resistant lustrous coating comprising
- an article having a vitreous surface, an inorganic based luster pigment layer comprising luster pigment particles bonded to said vitreous surface, and an organic layer covering said pigment layer to provide the scuff resistant lustrous coating, wherein said bonded inorganic based luster pigment layer is a mixture of at least 10% luster pigment with a soft fusing flux, having a fusing temperature in the range of 900.degree. F. to 1150.degree. F., and further wherein said inorganic based luster pigment layer has a thickness of up to about 450 microns.
A glass container or bottle having a scuff resistant lustrous coating comprising
- an inorganic based luster pigment layer comprising luster pigment particles bonded to said glass container or bottle, and an organic layer covering said pigment layer to provide the scuff resistant lustrous coating, wherein said bonded inorganic based luster pigment layer is a mixture of at least 10% luster pigment with a soft fusing flux, having a fusing temperature in the range of 900.degree. F. to 1150.degree. F., and further wherein said inorganic based luster pigment layer has a thickness of up to about 450 microns.
