Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a laminated glass for vehicles and its application, belonging to the field of automotive glass technology. Background Technology

[0002] For existing technologies, such as US20040219368A1 and CN101400515A, the panoramic sunroof glass used in cars without sunshades generally achieves heat insulation and heat preservation functions through heat-reflective metal films and / or heat-absorbing interlayer films and / or low-emissivity films. Moreover, the heat-absorbing interlayer films used generally have low visible light transmittance to prevent sunlight from entering the cabin through the roof and causing adverse consequences such as glare and dizziness.

[0003] Meanwhile, since laminated glass used in vehicles generally does not come with sunshades and its visible light reflectivity typically exceeds 8%, when used as sunroof glass, the reflections of passengers and items inside the vehicle (such as center console displays or other electronic device displays) are clearly visible on the sunroof glass due to mirror reflection. This causes visual interference for passengers, especially those in the rear seats, and causes discomfort to their eyes. Moreover, as sunroof glass becomes larger and its visible light transmittance decreases—for example, the reflections on panoramic sunroofs or panoramic sunroofs in electric vehicles are becoming increasingly clear—if passengers are using mobile phones or other electronic devices, the content of these devices may be clearly displayed on the sunroof glass and observed by other passengers, thus causing a privacy breach.

[0052] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying tables, drawings, and embodiments. The embodiments described below are some, but not all, embodiments of this invention, and are only used to illustrate the invention, and should not be considered as limiting the scope of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this invention. Where specific conditions are not specified in the embodiments, conventional conditions or conditions recommended by the manufacturer shall be followed. Reagents or instruments whose manufacturers are not specified are all conventional products that can be purchased commercially.

[0053] In this invention, the infrared reflective film 3 can reflect infrared rays in sunlight, thereby reducing the total solar transmittance of laminated glass for vehicles. The infrared reflective film 3 is disposed between the outer glass 1 and the inner glass 5. Specifically, it can be disposed on the second surface 12 of the outer glass 1, or on the third surface 51 of the inner glass 5, or on a thermoplastic film such as PET. The thermoplastic film on which the infrared reflective film 3 is disposed is sandwiched between the second surface 12 and the third surface 51.

[0054] The infrared reflective film 3 comprises at least one metal layer and at least two first dielectric layers, with each metal layer located between two adjacent first dielectric layers. The metal layer material can be silver (Ag), gold (Au), copper (Cu), aluminum (Al), platinum (Pt), or other metals or metal alloys. This invention preferably uses silver or a silver alloy, where the silver alloy is preferably an alloy of silver with at least one of gold, aluminum, copper, or platinum. Depending on the specific application, the number of metal layers in the infrared reflective film 3 can be, for example, two, three, four, five, or even more; using silver or a silver alloy as an example, there can be double-silver infrared reflective films, triple-silver infrared reflective films, quadruple-silver infrared reflective films, penta-silver infrared reflective films, etc. The material of the first dielectric layer can be selected from at least one of the oxides of Zn, Mg, Sn, Ti, Nb, Zr, Ni, In, Al, Ce, W, Mo, Sb, Bi, or nitrides, oxynitrides, and mixtures thereof of Si, Al, Zr, Y, Ce, La, such as zinc stannate, magnesium-doped zinc stannate, zinc oxide, magnesium-doped zinc oxide, zirconium-doped zinc oxide, niobium oxide, bismuth oxide, aluminum-doped zinc oxide, zirconium oxide, titanium oxide, titanium peroxide, etc.

[0055] The metal layer and the first dielectric layer can be formed by magnetron sputtering, and the thickness of each metal layer is 4nm-20nm. By optimizing the materials and thickness of the metal layer and the first dielectric layer, the infrared reflective film 3 can withstand subsequent high-temperature heat treatment or other bending and forming processes, and the optical and mechanical properties of the resulting laminated glass for vehicles can meet the standards for use in vehicle glass.

[0056] In this invention, the low-emissivity film 6 is disposed on the fourth surface 52 of the inner glass 5 to reduce the emissivity of the laminated glass for vehicles. Preferably, the emissivity of the low-emissivity film 6 is ≤0.25, more preferably ≤0.20. The low-emissivity film 6 includes at least one transparent conductive oxide (TCO) layer. The material of the transparent conductive oxide layer can be selected from at least one of doped zinc oxide, indium tin oxide (ITO), and fluorine-doped tin dioxide (FTO). The doped zinc oxide is one or more of the elements such as aluminum, tungsten, hafnium, gallium, yttrium, niobium, and neodymium. Specifically, it can be at least one of aluminum-doped zinc oxide (AZO), yttrium-doped zinc oxide (YZO), hafnium and aluminum-doped zinc oxide (HAZO), tungsten and aluminum-doped zinc oxide (W-AZO), and gallium-doped zinc oxide (GZO).

[0057] The low-emissivity film 6 has a total thickness of 50nm-300nm for the transparent conductive oxide layer. It also includes at least two second dielectric layers, with each transparent conductive oxide layer located between two adjacent second dielectric layers. The transparent conductive oxide layer and the second dielectric layers can be formed using magnetron sputtering. By optimizing the materials and thicknesses of the transparent conductive oxide layer and the second dielectric layers, the low-emissivity film 6 can withstand subsequent high-temperature heat treatment or other bending and forming processes. Furthermore, the resulting laminated glass for vehicles meets the optical and mechanical properties required for vehicle glass applications. In addition, the low-emissivity film 6 achieves an anti-reflective effect, reducing or even eliminating noticeable reflections of passengers and objects on the sunroof due to specular reflection, thus avoiding visual interference for passengers, especially rear passengers, and improving the user experience. Optionally, the material of the second dielectric layer is selected from at least one nitride, oxide, or oxynitride of Zn, Sn, Ti, Si, Al, Mg, and Zr.

[0058] In addition, the low-emissivity film 6 also includes at least one visible light blocking layer with a thickness of 4nm-20nm. The visible light blocking layer is selected from at least one of nickel-chromium alloy (NiCr), nickel-aluminum alloy (NiAl), nickel-silicon alloy (NiSi), metallic chromium (Cr), titanium nitride (TiN), niobium nitride (NbN), and titanium-molybdenum alloy (MoTi). By adding a visible light blocking layer to the low-emissivity film 6, the inner glass 5 can be made of transparent glass or green glass with a visible light transmittance of ≥80%, thereby achieving a mirror coefficient α≤15 for the laminated glass used in vehicles. This helps to reduce or even eliminate obvious reflections of passengers and objects inside the vehicle on the sunroof glass due to mirror reflection, avoiding visual interference to passengers, especially rear passengers, and improving the user experience.

[0062] The edge region of the second surface 12 of the outer glass 1 is covered with a first dark-colored shielding layer 2, and the edge region of the fourth surface 52 of the inner glass 5 is covered with a second dark-colored shielding layer 7, wherein the width of the second dark-colored shielding layer 7 is greater than the width of the first dark-colored shielding layer 2; the materials of the first dark-colored shielding layer 2 and the second dark-colored shielding layer 7 are black ceramic ink.

[0075] Comparative Example 2

[0076] This comparative example provides a laminated glass for vehicles, which differs from the laminated glass for vehicles provided in Example 1 only in that:

[0077] The outer glass 1 does not have an infrared reflective film 3 on its second surface 12; the outer glass 1 is a gray glass with a thickness of 2.1 mm and a visible light transmittance of 40%; the inner glass 5 is a gray glass with a thickness of 2.1 mm and a visible light transmittance of 40%; the intermediate film 4 is gray PVB with a visible light transmittance of 18%.

[0078] Comparative Example 3

[0079] This comparative example provides a laminated glass for vehicles, which differs from the laminated glass for vehicles provided in Example 1 only in that:

[0080] The low-emissivity film 6 is a single FTO layer, which is formed by a float in-line chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process.

[0081] Performance Test Example 1

[0082] The vehicle laminated glass provided in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3 were obtained according to the automotive glass manufacturing process. Then, the visible light transmittance (TL), visible light reflectance (RL), and total solar transmittance (TTS) were tested on them respectively, and the mirror coefficient (α) was calculated. The relevant test results and calculation results are shown in Table 1.

[0083] Visible light transmittance (TL): The visible light transmittance of laminated glass for vehicles in the wavelength range of 380 nm to 780 nm, measured and calculated according to ISO 9050.

[0084] Visible reflectance (RL): The visible reflectance of laminated glass for vehicles in the wavelength range of 380nm to 780nm, measured from the inside of the vehicle according to ISO 9050.

[0085] Total solar transmittance (TTS): The total solar transmittance of laminated glass for vehicles in the wavelength range of 300 nm to 2500 nm, measured and calculated according to ISO 9050.

[0086] Mirror coefficient (α): According to the formula α=RL / TL 2 calculate.

[0087] Table 1: Test and calculation results of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3

[0088] Visible light transmittance TL Visible light reflectance RL Mirror coefficient α Total Solar Transmittance (TTS) Example 1 5.17% 1.05% 3.93 17.30% Example 2 7.44% 2.82% 5.09 18.56% Example 3 3.13% 0.95% 9.70 14.62% Comparative Example 1 4.47% 4.08% 20.42 21.51% Comparative Example 2 2.53% 1.16% 18.12 20.57% Comparative Example 3 7.76% 8.27% 13.73 14.90%

[0089] As can be seen from Table 1 above, the visible light transmittance TL of the laminated glass for vehicles provided in Examples 1-3 of the present invention is 0.5%-10%, the visible light reflectance is ≤3%, the specular coefficient is 3-10, and the total solar energy transmittance is ≤20%. This indicates that compared with the laminated glass for vehicles provided in Comparative Examples 1-3, when the laminated glass for vehicles provided in Examples 1-3 is used as the sunroof glass of the vehicle roof, it can meet the requirements of eliminating the use of sunshades, and can reduce or even eliminate the obvious reflection of passengers and objects in the vehicle on the sunroof glass due to mirror reflection, avoid visual interference to passengers, especially rear passengers, effectively improve the mirror reflection effect of the interior surface, improve user experience and protect passenger privacy.

[0090] The laminated glass for vehicles provided in Comparative Example 1 does not have a low-emissivity film 6, so its emissivity is around 0.9. It does not have the effect of heat insulation in summer and heat preservation in winter. Not only is its total solar transmittance greater than 20%, but its mirror coefficient is also greater than 15. Compared with Examples 1-3, the laminated glass for vehicles provided in Comparative Example 1 does not have low emissivity, has poor heat insulation effect, and strong mirror reflection, and cannot meet the use requirements of eliminating sunshades.

[0091] The laminated glass for vehicles provided in Comparative Example 2 does not have an infrared reflective film 3. In order to reduce its total solar transmittance to about 20%, it uses two pieces of gray glass. Although its visible light transmittance and visible light reflectance meet the usage requirements and its total solar transmittance is close to 20%, its specular coefficient is greater than 15, and its specular reflection is too strong to meet the usage requirements of eliminating the sunshade.

[0092] The visible light transmittance, specular coefficient, and total solar transmittance of the laminated glass for vehicles provided in Comparative Example 3 all meet the usage requirements, but its visible light reflectance is greater than 8%, which also fails to meet the usage requirements of eliminating the sunshade.

[0117] Performance Test Example 2

[0118] The vehicle laminated glass provided in Examples 4-6 and the vehicle laminated glass provided in Comparative Examples 4-6 were obtained according to the automotive glass manufacturing process. Then, the visible light transmittance (TL), visible light reflectance (RL), and total solar transmittance (TTS) were tested on them respectively, and the mirror coefficient (α) was calculated. The relevant test results and calculation results are shown in Table 2.

[0119] Visible light transmittance (TL): The visible light transmittance of laminated glass for vehicles in the wavelength range of 380 nm to 780 nm, measured and calculated according to ISO 9050.

[0120] Visible reflectance (RL): The visible reflectance of laminated glass for vehicles in the wavelength range of 380nm to 780nm, measured from the inside of the vehicle according to ISO 9050.

[0121] Total solar transmittance (TTS): The total solar transmittance of laminated glass for vehicles in the wavelength range of 300 nm to 2500 nm, measured and calculated according to ISO 9050.

[0122] Mirror coefficient (α): According to the formula α=RL / TL 2 calculate.

[0123] Table 2: Test results and calculation results of Examples 4-6 and Comparative Examples 4-6

[0124] Visible light transmittance TL Visible light reflectance RL Mirror coefficient α Total Solar Transmittance (TTS) Example 4 5.06% 1.43% 5.59 12.62% Example 5 4.64% 1.09% 5.06 12.33% Example 6 3.08% 0.94% 9.91 11.92% Comparative Example 4 1.90% 4.25% 118 11.31% Comparative Example 5 1.50% 3.53% 157 10.86% Comparative Example 6 0.53% 1.08% 384 10.51%

[0125] As can be seen from Table 2 above, the visible light transmittance TL of the laminated glass for vehicles provided in Examples 4-6 of the present invention is 0.5%-6%, the visible light reflectance is ≤2%, the specular coefficient is 3-10, and the total solar energy transmittance is ≤13%. This indicates that compared with the laminated glass for vehicles provided in Comparative Examples 4-6, when the laminated glass for vehicles provided in Examples 4-6 is used as the sunroof glass of the vehicle roof, it can meet the requirements of eliminating the use of sunshades, and can reduce or even eliminate the obvious reflection of passengers and objects in the vehicle on the sunroof glass due to mirror reflection, avoid visual interference to passengers, especially rear passengers, effectively improve the mirror reflection effect of the interior surface, improve user experience and protect passenger privacy.

[0126] Although the visible light transmittance, visible light reflectance, and total solar transmittance of the laminated glass for vehicles provided in Comparative Examples 4-6 all meet the usage requirements, when the visible light transmittance TL is reduced to TL≤2%, if the visible light reflectance RL is not further reduced to a lower level, its specular value will be much greater than 15, or even greater than 100, resulting in very strong specular reflection, which cannot meet the requirements for eliminating sunshades. In order to achieve a specular value ≤15, thereby reducing specular reflection to meet the requirements for eliminating sunshades, when reducing the visible light transmittance to TL≤2%, the visible light reflectance RL needs to be further reduced to RL≤0.6%.

[0127] In Embodiments 1, 3, 4, 5 and 6 of the present invention, the inner glass 5 is transparent glass or green glass with a visible light transmittance of ≥80%, and the low-emissivity film 6 also includes at least one visible light blocking layer, which is in direct contact with the transparent conductive oxide layer therein.

[0128] The inner glass 5 with low-emissivity film 6 from Examples 1, 3, 4, 5 and 6 were selected for performance testing. The relevant performance test results are shown in Table 3.

[0129] Visible light transmittance (TL) 内 The visible light transmittance of the inner glass 5 with a low-emissivity film 6 in the wavelength range of 380nm to 780nm is measured and calculated according to ISO9050.

[0130] Visible light reflectance (RL) 内 ): The visible light reflectance of the inner glass 5 with the low-emissivity film 6 in the wavelength range of 380nm to 780nm is measured and calculated from the side closest to the low-emissivity film 6 according to ISO9050.

[0131] Total Solar Transmittance (TTS) 内The total solar transmittance of the inner glass 5 with a low-emissivity film 6 in the wavelength range of 300nm to 2500nm is measured and calculated according to ISO9050.

[0132] Mirror coefficient (α1): According to the formula α1=RL 内 / TL 内 2 calculate;

[0133] Emissivity: Measured from the side closest to the low-emissivity membrane 6 using a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer and calibrated according to standard EN12898;

[0134] Surface resistance: Measured using a surface resistance tester;

[0135] Reflected color: Measured from the side closest to the low-emissivity film 6, at an incident angle of 65°, based on a D65 light source and a 10° field of view, calculated according to the CIE Lab color model. The value a represents the red-green value, and the value b represents the yellow-blue value.

[0136] Table 3: Performance test results of the inner glass with low-emissivity film in Examples 1 and 3-6

[0137]

[0138]

[0139] As can be seen from Table 3 above, in this embodiment of the invention, the inner glass 5 with the low-emissivity film 6 has a transmittance of 50%-70%, a reflectivity of ≤4%, a specular coefficient of ≤0.1, an emissivity of ≤0.25, and a surface resistivity of ≤23 ohms / m. 2 The reflected color of the inner glass 5 with the low-emissivity film 6, measured from the side closest to the low-emissivity film 6, is as follows (Lab): -10 ≤ a ≤ 2, -5 ≤ b ≤ 5. Combining Tables 1 and 2, it can also be seen that adding at least one visible light blocking layer to the low-emissivity film 6 can further improve visible light transmittance, visible light reflectance, specular value, and total solar transmittance. Furthermore, to achieve the same level of visible light transmittance, visible light reflectance, and total solar transmittance, it is unnecessary to use an intermediate film 4 or gray glass with lower visible light transmittance. This significantly reduces production costs and difficulty, and avoids a specular value far exceeding 15, better meeting the needs of eliminating sunshades.

Therefore, any substitution of equivalent components or equivalent changes and modifications made within the scope of protection of this patent should still fall within the scope of this patent. Furthermore, the technical features, technical features and technical inventions, and technical inventions in this invention can be freely combined and used.
