[0077] As used herein, "visible light transmission" values are determined using the conventional CIE illuminant A and a 2 degree observer angle. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that even if the actual thickness of a glass sample being measured differs from the standard thickness, properties such as visible light transmission can be calculated at an equivalent standard thickness (e.g., 3.85 millimeters (mm)).
[0078] All documents mentioned herein, such as but not limited to granted patents and patent applications, are to be considered as being incorporated in their entirety by reference.
[0079] Two different oxidation states of iron can be found in glass: ferrous iron (Fe2+) and ferrous iron (Fe2+). 2+ , represented as ferrous oxide (FeO) and ferric iron (Fe2+). 3+ (represented as iron oxide, Fe2O3).
[0080]
[0081] The term "redox ratio" refers to the amount of iron in the ferrous state (represented as FeO) divided by the amount of total iron (represented as Fe2O3).
[0082] As understood by those skilled in the art, the redox ratio of a glass composition is controlled by controlling the conditions under which the glass is prepared. Many such factors can influence redox. The concentrations of reducing agents (e.g., carbon) and oxidizing agents (e.g., sodium sulfate) can each affect redox. For example, sodium sulfate (Na₂SO₄) can be added to glass batches as a raw material to eliminate bubbles, perform high-temperature refining, promote mass transfer, dissolve free silica on the glass surface, and reduce the amount of solid inclusions. However, Na₂SO₄ has oxidizing properties, so a small amount of carbon is usually added to the mixture to counteract undesirable oxidation. Furthermore, Na₂SO₄ is converted to SO₃ during glassmaking, which has an inverse relationship with redox, while sulfur has a direct relationship with redox. Finally, melting conditions, such as altering the oxygen excess and adjusting the flame alignment during combustion in the furnace, can further affect redox.

LAa* in the range of -8 to 4.5 (preferably a* in the range of -6 to 4 or a* in the range of -5 to 1 or even a* in the range of -4.5 to 0.5) and b* in the range of -12.5 to 15.5 (preferably b* in the range of -5.5 to 12.5 or b* in the range of -2 to 6 or even b* in the range of 0 to 5). The L* of the glass can be in the range of 10 to 35, preferably in the range of 13 to 28, or even more preferably in the range of 15 to 26, or even still more preferably in the range of 15.5 to 25.5.
[0084] In another aspect, the present application also comprises 0.044 to 0.059 wt% of CoO; or 0.0465 to 0.0565 wt% of CoO; or even between 0.049 to 0.054 wt% of CoO. The addition of CoO helps to neutralize the color of the glass while helping to achieve a T LA T LA .
[0085] With respect to the wt% of the various compounds added to the glass compositions disclosed herein, these additives, which are based on wt%, can alternatively be considered as any specified wt% of any desired additive, where such wt% is based on 100 parts by weight of the base glass composition.
[0086] According to the present application, the following properties are measured as described below. Ultraviolet transmittance (T UV ) is measured using the ISO 13837 standard in the wavelength range of 300 nm to 400 nm. Additionally, if applicable, visible transmittance is measured using the C.I.E. standard illuminant “A” (T LA ) in the wavelength range of 380 nm to 780 nm; solar direct transmittance (T IR ) is measured using the ISO 13837 standard in the wavelength range of 300 nm to 2500 nm; infrared transmittance (T ts ) is measured using the ISO 13837 standard in the wavelength range of 800 nm to 2500 nm; and total solar energy transmittance (T UV , T IR , and T tsThe transmittance data were calculated using Parry Moon air mass 1.5 direct sunlight irradiance data and integrated using the trapezoidal rule, as known in the art.
[0087] Additionally, one or more color variables L*, a*, and b* of the color system CIELAB 1976 were calculated from the tristimulus values.
[0088] The glass can be melted and refined in a continuous, large-scale commercial glass melting operation. It can also be formed into flat glass of varying thickness by a float process in which the molten glass is supported on a pool of molten metal (typically tin, as it presents a ribbon) and cooled in a manner known in the art.
[0089] It should be noted that in any of the methods disclosed herein, coal can be used in the batch chemistry to form the various glasses disclosed herein. In another example, the coal in the batch chemistry can be replaced in a one-for-one ratio with any other suitable alternative carbon source including, but not limited to, graphite. If such a change is made, no other changes to the batch chemistry in any of the embodiments described above are required. Additionally, if an electric furnace process is used for the batch chemistry, the amount of coal or other carbon source should be changed accordingly depending on the processing environment present in an electric furnace, which is different than in a gas furnace. In one non-limiting example, since coal or other carbon source is considered a reducing agent, the amount of carbon used should be changed based on the nature of the atmosphere composition and / or the environment present in the furnace used to process the desired glass batch according to any of the embodiments of the present application.
[0090] As known in the art, glass recycling is a component of various types of glass production. Thus, in some instances, the present application can utilize one or more sources of cullet (i.e., recycled glass material). As known, there are two types of cullet, internal and external. Internal cullet consists of defective product, transitional stages of product variation (e.g., thickness and color changes), and production scrap that are detected and rejected by quality control processes in the industrial process of glass manufacturing, while external cullet is scrap glass that is collected or reprocessed for recycling. External cullet, which can be pre-consumer or post-consumer, can be classified as waste. In some embodiments, the present application can use any suitable type of cullet, whether internal or external. If a significant amount of external cullet is added to any of the batch chemistries described above, the amount of Fe2S additive should be adjusted accordingly if such external cullet consists of greater than 50 wt.% visually clear glass, as opposed to glass that visually presents a green or blue-green color.
[0091] As will be appreciated, the present application is not limited to glass compositions only, but rather relates to glass compositions that can be used to form various glass-containing articles in which one or more layers of glass according to any of the embodiments disclosed herein are desired. Such glass-containing articles can include, but are not limited to, display screens, architectural articles, glazings, vehicle glazings, and the like.
[0092] In another example, the glass compositions of the present application can be used to form glazings that can be used in any desired architectural or vehicle application, whether the glazing is a monolithic (i.e., one layer) structure, a multi-layer structure, or even a multi-layer laminated structure (e.g., a laminated vehicle glazing). It should be noted that any suitable layered or even non-layered structure can be formed to include at least one glass layer of the present application. As such structures are known to those skilled in the art, a detailed discussion thereof is omitted herein for the sake of brevity.
[0093] In another embodiment, the glasses of the present application can be coated with any one or more coatings known to those skilled in the art. Such coatings include, but are not limited to, one or more low-emissivity coatings, one or more anti-reflective coatings, one or more solar control coatings (e.g., having the ability to alter the amount of solar radiation transmitted, reflected, and absorbed in the solar range between 300 and 2500 nm), one or more low-UV and / or IRC (near-IR) coatings, or a combination of any two or more thereof. Some non-limiting examples of suitable coatings are contained in U.S. Patent 11,479,502 and WO 2014 / 058290, the disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.
