US Patent:
7851016, Dec 14, 2010
Filed:
Mar 30, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/413994
Inventors:
Mehran Arbab - Pittsburgh PA, US
Deirdre D. Ragan - Clemmons NC, US
Songwei Lu - Wexford PA, US
Assignee:
PPG Industries Ohio, Inc. - Cleveland OH
International Classification:
B05D 3/02
US Classification:
427229, 427226
Abstract:
A process for producing an article having modified optical, chemical, and/or physical properties is disclosed. The process includes (a) fluidizing a starting material; (b) forcing the fluidized starting material toward the article; and (c) passing the fluidized starting material through a high energy zone. The passing step can occur before the forcing step; after the forcing step but before the fluidizing material comes in contact with the surface of the article; and/or after the forcing step and after the fluidized material comes in contact with the surface of the article. The properties of the article are modified because the article has nano-scaled structures distributed on the surface of the article and/or at least partially embedded in the article.

Abstract:
A coated article includes a pyrolytic applied transparent electrically conductive oxide film of niobium doped titanium oxide. The article can be made by using a coating mixture having a niobium precursor and a titanium precursor. The coating mixture is directed toward a heated substrate to decompose the coating mixture and to deposit a transparent electrically conductive niobium doped titanium oxide film on the surface of the heated substrate. In one embodiment of the invention, the method is practiced using a vaporized coating mixture including a vaporized niobium precursor; a vaporized titanium precursor, and a carrier gas to deposit a niobium doped titanium oxide film having a sheet resistance greater than 1. 2 and an index of refraction of 2. 3 or greater.
