Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of magnetron sputtering coating, and more specifically, to a red triple-silver low-emissivity glass. Background Art
[0002] Low-emissivity glass (Low-E glass), as a high-performance energy-saving building material, has been widely used in the construction field in recent years. Among them, triple-silver low-emissivity glass has become the preferred material for high-end building curtain walls and energy-saving doors and windows due to its excellent heat insulation performance and high visible light transmittance. Currently, triple-silver LOW-E products on the market mainly deposit multiple functional films on the glass surface through magnetron sputtering technology to form a composite structure with selective transmission characteristics, which can effectively block infrared radiation while maintaining good visible light transmittance. Such products are widely used in the exterior walls and window systems of commercial buildings, high-end residences, and public facilities, making important contributions to building energy conservation and improved comfort.
[0003] However, the existing triple-silver LOW-E products have obvious limitations in color performance. Most products present cold tones such as greenish, grayish, or bluish. Although this color characteristic can be applied in some modern architectural designs, with the increasing trend of diversified development of architectural aesthetics, the demand for the color of glass curtain walls by architects is also becoming increasingly diverse. Especially in architectural designs that pursue a warm and vibrant atmosphere, the cold-tone appearance of existing triple-silver LOW-E products is difficult to meet the design requirements. In addition, not only does the existing product present a cold tone in appearance, but its transmitted color also tends to be green, which will affect people's perception of the true color of external objects through the glass, reducing visual comfort and user experience. When observed from different angles, the color change of the existing product also lacks consistency and cannot achieve a unified color effect. Therefore, developing a triple-silver LOW-E glass with a red warm tone in the front color, film surface color, and 60° angular color deviation, while presenting a neutral colorless transmitted color, is of great significance for meeting the diversified design requirements of building facades, enhancing the architectural aesthetic value, and improving the user's visual experience. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the present invention provides a red triple-silver low-emissivity glass. By arranging a multi-layer film system structure composed of a silver layer, a copper layer, and an auxiliary layer on the glass substrate in a specific order, and precisely controlling the thickness ratio of the second functional layer silver to the copper functional layer and the component ratio of the two intermediate dielectric layers, the technical problems of the existing triple-silver LOW-E products with a single color tone, mostly cold tones, and a greenish transmitted color are successfully solved.
[0005] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0013] The two intermediate dielectric layers are composed of the same tin zinc oxide and aluminum zinc oxide, and the component ratio is precisely controlled to be 7:3. This design enables light waves to produce specific reflection and transmission effects in the multi-layer film system, thereby achieving the target color parameters.
[0014] As a further solution of the present invention, the film thickness of the protective layer is 25 - 35 nm, which is composed of aluminum zinc oxide and silicon nitride, and the component ratio is 2:8.

[0030] Through an innovative design of a 12-layer film system structure, especially by introducing a copper functional layer into the triple-silver structure and precisely controlling the thickness ratio thereof to the second functional layer silver, and at the same time optimizing the component ratio and thickness parameters of the two intermediate dielectric layers, the glass exhibits a stable red appearance effect while achieving low-emissivity performance. Compared with the prior art, the present invention has significant advantages: Most of the existing triple-silver LOW-E products exhibit cool colors such as greenish, grayish, or bluish, and the transmitted color often tends to be greenish. However, the present invention not only achieves a consistent red warm color effect on the front side, the film side, and at different viewing angles, but more importantly, maintains a neutral transmitted color and does not change the actual color observed by people through the glass, thus solving the problem of greenish transmitted color in the prior art. In addition, the red triple-silver LOW-E glass of the present invention provides a richer color selection for the design of building facades while maintaining excellent heat insulation performance, meeting the requirements of the diversified development of building aesthetics.

[0032] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0033] Embodiment 1

[0035] The red triple-silver low-emissivity glass of the present invention is composed of a glass substrate and a multi-layer film structure sequentially provided thereon. The appearance of this glass product presents a unique red effect, and the transmitted color is neutral.

[0036] The red triple-silver low-emissivity glass of the present invention can adopt a 6+12A+6 insulating glass structure, where A represents the insulating layer and the numbers represent the thickness (mm). This structure can not only meet the building energy conservation requirements but also ensure sufficient mechanical strength.
[0037] In the embodiment of the present invention, the film thickness of the primer layer is 25-35nm and it is composed of silicon nitride and aluminum zinc oxide. This layer mainly plays a role in enhancing the adhesion between the film layer and the glass substrate and provides a flat growth basis for the subsequent functional layers.
[0038] In the embodiment of the present invention, the film thickness of the first functional layer is 10-13nm, the film thickness of the second functional layer is 7-10nm, the film thickness of the copper functional layer is 8-12nm, and the film thickness of the third functional layer is 13-18nm. The first functional layer mainly provides basic low-emissivity performance. The second functional layer, as an intermediate functional silver layer, together with other silver layers constitutes the core of the triple-silver structure. The third functional layer, as the outermost functional silver layer, has a larger film thickness and can provide stronger low-emissivity performance.
[0039] In the embodiment of the present invention, the film thickness of the first metal protection layer is 5-8nm and it is composed of aluminum oxide; the film thickness of the second metal protection layer is 0.4-1nm and it is composed of nickel-chromium alloy; the film thickness of the third metal protection layer is 0.4-1nm and it is composed of nickel-chromium alloy. The first metal protection layer is used to protect the silver layer from oxidation and extend the service life of the product. The second metal protection layer is used to protect the silver layer and the copper layer from oxidation. The third metal protection layer is used to protect the outermost silver layer from oxidation erosion.
[0040] In the embodiment of the present invention, the film thickness of the first intermediate dielectric layer is 50-65nm and it is composed of tin zinc oxide and aluminum zinc oxide with a component ratio of 7:3; the film thickness of the second intermediate dielectric layer is 75-85nm and it is composed of tin zinc oxide and aluminum zinc oxide with a component ratio of 7:3. The first intermediate dielectric layer not only plays an optical adjustment role but also can effectively isolate adjacent functional layers.
[0041] The two intermediate dielectric layers are composed of the same tin zinc oxide and aluminum zinc oxide, and the component ratio is precisely controlled to be 7:3. This design enables light waves to produce specific reflection and transmission effects in the multi-layer film system, thereby achieving the target color parameters.
[0042] In the embodiment of the present invention, the film thickness of the protective layer is 25 - 35 nm, which is composed of aluminum zinc oxide and silicon nitride, and the component ratio is 2:8.

These parameters ensure the red appearance effect and neutral transmitted color characteristics of the product.
[0045] After the glass in the embodiment of the present invention is made into a hollow glass with a structure of 6Cl ow-E + 12A + 6C, it has excellent optical performance indicators: the outer visible light reflectance is 12%, which means that when observed from the outside, 12% of the visible light is reflected by the glass, presenting a unique red appearance; the inner visible light reflectance is 9%, making the reflection feeling weaker when looking out from the inside, without affecting the visual comfort of indoor personnel; the visible light transmittance is 50%, ensuring sufficient indoor lighting effect, and at the same time, the transmitted color is close to neutral, not significantly changing the original color of indoor objects; the heat gain coefficient is only 0.26, also known as the solar heat gain coefficient (SHGC) or g value, indicating that only 26% of the solar thermal energy can pass through the glass into the room. This low value reflects the excellent heat insulation performance of the product, which can effectively reduce the building air-conditioning energy consumption in summer and achieve excellent energy-saving effects.
