With the development and manufacture of Zhenhua Vacuum in the vacuum coating machine for many years, Zhenhua has made many breakthroughs in the vacuum coating technology, such as multi arc ion plating and magnetron sputtering composite technology, large rectangular long arc target and sputtering target, unbalanced magnetron sputtering target, twin target technology, strip fiber dimension fabric winding coating technology, etc.
1. Online high-temperature pyrolysis deposition method:
On-line high-temperature pyrolysis deposition method "Low-E" glass has products from multiple companies in the United States. Such as PPG's Surgate200, Ford's Sunglas H. R"P". These products are completed during the float glass cooling process. Liquid metal or metal powder is directly sprayed onto the surface of the hot glass. As the glass cools, the metal film becomes a part of the glass. The film is hard and durable. The "Low-E" glass produced by this method has many advantages: it can be hot-bent and tempered, does not need to be used in a hollow state, and can be stored for a long time. Its disadvantage is its poor thermal performance. Unless the film is very thick, the "u" value is only half of the "Low-E" coated glass by sputtering. If you want to improve the thermal performance by increasing the film thickness, the transparency is very poor.
Second, offline vacuum sputtering method:
Manufacturers and products that can produce "Low-E" glass by the sputtering method include "LnplusNetetralR" of Interpec in North America, Sungatel00 of PPG, Sunglars of Ford, etc. Unlike the high-temperature pyrolysis deposition method, the sputtering method is offline. And there are horizontal and vertical points according to the different transmission positions of the glass.
Sputtering process to produce "Low-E" glass requires a pure silver film as a functional film. The pure silver film is between the two metal oxide films. The metal oxide film provides protection for the pure silver film, and acts as an intermediate layer between the film layers to increase color purity and light transmittance.
In the vertical production process, the glass is placed vertically on a shelf and sent into a large vacuum chamber. The pressure in the vacuum chamber will decrease accordingly. The vertically mounted cathode target sputters metal atoms and deposits them on the glass substrate to form a film. In order to form a uniform film, the cathode target moves back and forth near the glass surface. In order to obtain a multilayer film. Multiple cathodes must be used, and each cathode moves back and forth on the glass surface to form a certain film thickness.
The horizontal method is largely similar to the vertical method. The main difference is the placement of the glass. The glass is transported by horizontally arranged wheels. After passing through the cathode, the glass passes through a series of pinned valves, and the vacuum degree also changes. When the glass reaches the main sputtering chamber, the coating pressure is reached, the metal cathode target is fixed, and the glass moves. As the glass passes through the cathode, a film layer is formed.
Sputtering method produces "Low-E" glass, with the following characteristics:
Because there are a variety of metal target materials and a variety of metal target material combinations, therefore, the sputtering method to produce "Low-E" glass can have a variety of configurations. In terms of color and purity, sputter plating is also superior to thermal spraying, and because of the off-line method, it is also more flexible in the development of new products. The main advantage is that the "Low-E" insulating glass produced by sputtering has a "u" value better than that of pyrolysis products, but its disadvantage is that the silver oxide film is very fragile, so it is impossible Use like ordinary glass. It must be made into hollow glass, and it is not suitable for long-distance transportation before it is made into hollow products.
For residential insulating glass, I always hope that the lighting performance is good, while blocking all ultraviolet rays and some infrared rays. Fortunately, "Low-E" glass has this function:
97% of solar radiation energy is concentrated in the wavelength range of 0.3-2.5um, this part of the energy comes from outdoor; the radiant energy of objects below 100 ℃ is concentrated in the long wave band above 2.5um, this part of the energy mainly comes from indoor.
If the room window is used as a boundary, in winter or in high latitudes, we hope that the radiant energy outside will come in, and the radiant energy inside should not be leaked. If the wavelength of radiation is used as the boundary, the dividing point between indoor and outdoor radiant energy is at the wavelength of 2.5um. Therefore, choosing a room window with a certain function becomes the key.
3mm thick ordinary transparent glass has a 87% transmittance to solar radiation energy, and most of the radiation energy from the outside during the day can be transmitted; but at night or rainy weather, 89% of the heat radiation energy from indoor objects is absorbed by it, making The temperature of the glass rises, and then radiates its heat through indoor and outdoor radiation and convection exchange, so it cannot effectively prevent the indoor heat from leaking to the outside.
Low-E insulating glass has a transmittance of more than 60% to the solar radiation of 0.3-2.5um. During the day, most of the radiant energy from outdoor can be transmitted, but at night and rainy weather, the thermal radiation from indoor objects is more than 50%. When it is reflected back into the room, only less than 15% of the heat radiation is absorbed by it and then lost through re-radiation and convection exchange, so it can effectively prevent the indoor heat from leaking to the outside. This characteristic of Low-E glass makes it control the effect of unidirectional flow of thermal energy into the room.
After the short wave of sunlight passes through the window glass, it shines on the indoor objects. After these items are heated, they will be radiated again in the form of long waves. These long waves were blocked by the "Low-E" window glass and returned to the room. In fact, the radiation through the window glass is reduced to 85% again, which greatly improves the insulation performance of the window glass.
The thermal insulation performance of the window glass is generally expressed by the "u" value, and the "u" value is directly related to the emissivity of the glass.
"u" value is defined as: under ASHRAE standard conditions, due to the heat conduction of the glass and the temperature difference between the indoor and outdoor, the resulting heat transfer from air to air. Its imperial units are: British thermal units per hour per square foot per degree Fahrenheit, metric units are: watts per square meter per degree Celsius, the lower the "u" value, the lower the heat transfer through the glass, and the insulation performance of the window glass The better. Emissivity is the ratio of the heat radiated per unit area of an object to the heat radiated per unit area of the black body at the same temperature and under the same conditions. Emissivity is defined as the ability of an object to absorb or reflect heat. In theory, a completely black body has 100% absorption at all wavelengths. That is, the reflectivity is zero. Therefore, the blackbody emissivity is 1.0.
