Certaines de ces couches sont décrites dans les demandes WO 02/02472, WO 97/10186, WO 97/10185, WO 01/32578 incorporées ici à titre de référence.
Les sources de pollution organique sont diverses ; peuvent être cités les hydrocarbures provenant des gaz d'échappement de véhicules de transport, ou divers produits de combustion en suspension dans l'atmosphère, ou des sources plus ponctuelles. Ainsi s'est-il avéré que le silicone utilisé à la périphérie des vitrages multiples ou utilisé comme joint de montage des vitrages dans les feuillures des portes ou fenêtres avait une tendance très forte à migrer, de sorte qu'une zone du vitrage distante jusqu'à 15 à 20 cm du bord puisse être polluée. Le polysulfure, le néoprène, pouvant également entrer dans la constitution de vitrages, notamment multiples, ou leur montage dans les cadres de fenêtres et portes, sont également des sources de pollution potentielles.Can be used a soda-lime glass, in particular a float glass as used for transport vehicles, for the building or other application of flat glass, or a glass of the bottle or flask type, a borosilicate of the pyrex type, a glass, of phosphate usable as prosthesis or optical glass, a lead glass (crystal), an aluminosilicate such as a glass ceramic, or an amorphous solid material free of silica. As functional layers coating the glass in a known manner, we may mention low-emissivity, anti-solar, anti-reflective, decorative layers (for example acid matt, screen-printed, lacquered, enameled, textured by rolling between rollers or by other equivalent methods), or hydrophobic and / or oleophobic or hydrophilic and / or oleophilic textured layers, some of which may not be opposite 1 of the glazing, that is to say by convention that intended to be contact with the outside atmosphere (and not with the atmosphere of a building or vehicle § ηçinte for example). Some of these layers are described in applications WO 02/02472, WO 97/10186, WO 97/10185, WO 01/32578 incorporated here by reference. The sources of organic pollution are diverse; Hydrocarbons from exhaust gases from transport vehicles, or various combustion products suspended in the atmosphere, or more specific sources, can be cited. Thus it turned out that the silicone used at the periphery of multiple glazing or used as a mounting joint for glazing in the rebates of doors or windows had a very strong tendency to migrate, so that an area of the glazing distant up to '' at 15 to 20 cm from the edge can be polluted. Polysulfide, neoprene, which can also be used in the creation of glazing, especially multiple glazing, or their mounting in window and door frames, are also potential sources of pollution.
Or, la formation d'une pollution organique sur un substrat du type mentionné ci-dessus peut amoindrir la performance recherchée pour le substrat. Dans le cas de substrat à fonctionnalité très sensible, la pollution organique est susceptible de faire écran ; elle forme des traces plus ou moins tenaces, et diminue la qualité de visibilité à travers un substrat transparent.However, the formation of organic pollution on a substrate of the type mentioned above can reduce the desired performance for the substrate. In the case of substrate with very sensitive functionality, organic pollution is likely to screen; it forms more or less tenacious traces, and decreases the quality of visibility through a transparent substrate.
D'autre part, lorsque le substrat consiste en couches aussi minces que précité, ou comporte une texturation à motifs de dimensions de l'ordre de 10 à 200 nm, le problème se pose de trouver le moyen de supprimer les effets négatifs de la pollution organique sans détruire le substrat, mais au contraire en préservant sa morphologie de surface le cas échéant et en restaurant sa fonction initiale dans sa qualité et sa durabilité, à l'égal de ce qu'elle était avant formation de la pollution.On the other hand, when the substrate consists of layers as thin as above, or has a textured patterned pattern of the order of 10 to 200 nm, the problem arises of finding a way to eliminate the negative effects of pollution. organic without destroying the substrate, but on the contrary by preserving its surface morphology if necessary and by restoring its initial function in its quality and its durability, equal to what it was before the formation of pollution.
A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un procédé de traitement de pollution organique sur un substrat de verre, d'oxyde ou de tout autre matériau essentiellement minéral ou métallique, présentant une fonctionnalité par le fait qu'il est constitué d'une ou plusieurs couches empilées, et/ou qu'il présente une morphologie de surface particulière, caractérisé en ce qu'il consiste en un traitement électrique, un traitement UV ozone ou un traitement par flamme, éventuellement suivi d'un lavage. Ce procédé s'est révélé apte à supprimer tout effet d'une pollution organique, de manière à régénérer divers substrats dans leurs états antérieurs à la formation de la pollution, sans qu'aucune fragilisation apparente du substrat n'en résulte, et sans destruction des morphologies de surface même aux motifs les plus fins (texturation).To this end, the subject of the invention is a process for treating organic pollution on a substrate of glass, oxide or any other essentially mineral or metallic material, having a functionality in that it consists of a or several stacked layers, and / or that it has a particular surface morphology, characterized in that it consists of an electrical treatment, an UV ozone treatment or a flame treatment, optionally followed by washing. This process has proved capable of eliminating any effect of organic pollution, so as to regenerate various substrates in their states prior to the formation of pollution, without any apparent embrittlement of the substrate resulting therefrom, and without destruction. surface morphologies even with the finest patterns (texturing).
Selon une réalisation particulièrement pratique de l'invention, ledit
traitement électrique est choisi parmi les traitements du type de la décharge couronne, un traitement plasma sous vide ou à pression atmosphérique, ou l'action d'un champ électrique.According to a particularly practical embodiment of the invention, said electrical treatment is chosen from treatments of the corona discharge type, plasma treatment under vacuum or at atmospheric pressure, or the action of an electric field.
Dans une application, ledit substrat est hydrophile et/ou oléophile. En effet une pollution organique confère en général un caractère hydrophobe prononcé au substrat sur lequel elle est déposée, tout en y adhérant fortement, de sorte qu'il est difficile de l'en détacher. Cette difficulté particulière a pu être surmontée grâce à l'invention, en vue de restaurer l'hydrophilie et/ou oléophilie initiale. Dans ce mode du présent procédé, deux variantes principales sont à distinguer. Conformément à une première variante, ledit substrat comprend une couche à base de dérivé au moins partiellement oxydé de silicium choisi parmi le dioxyde de silicium ou des oxydes sous-stœchiométriques en oxygène du silicium, l'oxycarbure ou l'oxynitrure de silicium. Cette couche, déposée par sol-gel ou par pyrolyse, notamment en phase gazeuse CVD, est décrite dans la demande WO 01/32578, et se distingue par un angle de contact à l'eau faible, favorisant la formation d'un film liquide fin ne gênant pas la vision à travers un vitrage notamment, empêchant la formation de gouttelettes de buée, ainsi que par une géométrie de surface présentant des globes et procurant un effet de capillarité. Ce substrat est remarquable dans sa propriété hydronettoyante, c'est-à-dire son aptitude à englober et entraîner une éventuelle salissure dans le film liquide fin et uniforme. Par contre une pollution organique relativement tenace et/ou en quantité relativement importante, devra être éliminée, de préférence, sans destruction de la morphologie de surface à globes, ce que permet le procédé de l'invention.In one application, said substrate is hydrophilic and / or oleophilic. Indeed, organic pollution generally gives a pronounced hydrophobic character to the substrate on which it is deposited, while strongly adhering to it, so that it is difficult to detach it. This particular difficulty could be overcome thanks to the invention, with a view to restoring the initial hydrophilicity and / or oleophilia. In this mode of the present method, two main variants are to be distinguished. According to a first variant, said substrate comprises a layer based on an at least partially oxidized derivative of silicon chosen from silicon dioxide or sub-stoichiometric oxides of silicon oxygen, oxycarbide or silicon oxynitride. This layer, deposited by sol-gel or by pyrolysis, in particular in the CVD gas phase, is described in application WO 01/32578, and is distinguished by a low contact angle with water, promoting the formation of a liquid film. end does not interfere with vision through glazing in particular, preventing the formation of mist droplets, as well as by a surface geometry having globes and providing a capillary effect. This substrate is remarkable in its water-cleaning property, that is to say its ability to encompass and cause possible soiling in the thin and uniform liquid film. On the other hand, relatively tenacious organic pollution and / or in relatively large quantity, should preferably be eliminated, without destroying the surface morphology with globes, which allows the process of the invention.
Une seconde variante du mode préféré consiste en ce que ledit substrat comprend une couche comportant de l'oxyde de titane au moins partiellement cristallisé sous forme anatase, sous forme rutile ou sous forme d'un mélange d'anatase et de rutile. Cette couche, obtenue à partir d'au moins un précurseur de titane, le cas échéant en solution, par pyrolyse en phase liquide, par une technique sol-gel ou encore par pyrolyse en phase vapeur, est connue notamment des demandes WO 97/10185, WO 97/10186 et WO 99/44954. Elle est hydrophile après exposition à la lumière, et apte à dégrader les salissures d'origine organique par un processus d'oxydation radicalaire. Il convient néanmoins, dans cette variante également, d'éliminer des pollutions organiques tenaces ou en quantités importantes et susceptibles de faire écran entre la lumière et la couche de Tiθ2,
inactivant cette dernière.A second variant of the preferred mode consists in that said substrate comprises a layer comprising titanium oxide at least partially crystallized in anatase form, in rutile form or in the form of a mixture of anatase and rutile. This layer, obtained from at least one titanium precursor, optionally in solution, by pyrolysis in the liquid phase, by a sol-gel technique or also by pyrolysis in the vapor phase, is known in particular from applications WO 97/10185 , WO 97/10186 and WO 99/44954. It is hydrophilic after exposure to light, and able to degrade soiling of organic origin by a process of radical oxidation. It is nevertheless appropriate, in this variant also, to eliminate stubborn organic pollution or in significant quantities and capable of making a screen between the light and the layer of Tiθ 2 , inactivating the latter.
L'invention a d'autre part pour objet un dispositif de mise en œuvre du procédé décrit ci-dessus sur un vitrage simple ou multiple comprenant du verre monolithique ou feuilleté. Ce dispositif est : - soit installé à proximité de la chaîne de fabrication du vitrage ou intégré à celle- ci ; - soit apte à être activé sur le lieu d'installation du vitrage, sous réserve que celui-ci dispose d'une source d'énergie, à moins que le dispositif ne soit autonome sur le plan énergétique. Un traitement du type de la décharge couronne, notamment, ouvre chacune de ces deux possibilités, mettant notamment à disposition des appareils relativement légers et de petites dimensions, portables et fonctionnant par simple branchement sur le secteur.The invention also relates to a device for implementing the method described above on a single or multiple glazing comprising monolithic or laminated glass. This device is: - either installed close to or integrated into the glazing production line; - is able to be activated at the place of installation of the glazing, provided that it has an energy source, unless the device is autonomous in terms of energy. A treatment of the type of the crown discharge, in particular, opens each of these two possibilities, in particular making available relatively light and small devices, portable and operating by simple connection to the sector.
Avantageusement, un dispositif de mise en œuvre du procédé ci-dessus comporte un outil terminal apte à être déplacé sur la surface ou à proximité de la surface du substrat, notamment vitrage.Advantageously, a device for implementing the above method comprises a terminal tool capable of being moved on the surface or close to the surface of the substrate, in particular glazing.
Un autre objet de l'invention consiste en l'application du procédé précédemment exposé à un vitrage simple ou multiple comprenant du verre monolithique ou feuilleté, et dans lequel ledit substrat comprend une couche à base de dérivé au moins partiellement oxydé de silicium choisi parmi le dioxyde de silicium ou des oxydes sous-stœchiométriques en oxygène du silicium, l'oxycarbure ou l'oxynitrure de silicium, et/ou une couche comportant Ti02.Another object of the invention consists in applying the method previously exposed to a single or multiple glazing comprising monolithic or laminated glass, and in which said substrate comprises a layer based on an at least partially oxidized derivative of silicon chosen from silicon dioxide or sub-stoichiometric oxides of silicon oxygen, oxycarbide or silicon oxynitride, and / or a layer comprising Ti0 2 .
Un autre objet de l'invention est :un vitrage simple ou multiple comprenant du verre monolithique ou feuilleté, qui a été soumis au procédé de traitement ci- dessus, et qui est destiné à un véhicule de transport aérien, aquatique ou terrestre, en particulier à une automobile, au bâtiment (fenêtre, porte, élément de mobilier sanitaire ou autre tel que cabine de douche, table, tablette...), au mobilier urbain (abribus...), à un élément décoratif d'intérieur tel qu'un aquarium ou d'extérieur, ou à l'électroménager (porte de four, tablette de réfrigérateur... ). L'invention est maintenant illustrée par les exemples de réalisation suivants.Another subject of the invention is: a single or multiple glazing unit comprising monolithic or laminated glass, which has been subjected to the above treatment process, and which is intended for an air, aquatic or land transport vehicle, in particular to an automobile, to the building (window, door, element of sanitary furniture or other such as shower cubicle, table, tablet ...), to urban furniture (bus shelters ...), to an interior decorative element such as '' an aquarium or outdoor, or household appliance (oven door, refrigerator shelf ...). The invention is now illustrated by the following exemplary embodiments.
EXEMPLE 1 Des feuilles de verre flotté silicosodocalcique sont assemblées deux à deux, de manière connue, en doubles vitrages, par collage d'un profilé creux métallique entre les feuilles et utilisation d'un mastic de scellement au silicone
dans la gorge périphérique.EXAMPLE 1 Sheets of silica-calcium calcium glass are assembled in pairs, in known manner, in double glazing, by bonding a hollow metal profile between the sheets and use of a silicone sealant in the peripheral throat.
Certains vitrages ainsi formés sont traités par décharge couronne au moyen d'un appareillage intégré à la chaîne d'assemblage. Cet appareillage comporte des têtes de traitement formées chacune d'un couple anode-cathode relié au secteur et positionné à une distance de 0,5 à 2 cm de la surface à traiter, dans un plan parallèle à celle-ci. Un champ électrique est créé entre chaque anode et la cathode correspondante, et l'air situé entre les deux est projeté sur le vitrage.Certain glazings thus formed are treated by crown discharge by means of an apparatus integrated into the assembly line. This apparatus comprises treatment heads each formed by an anode-cathode pair connected to the sector and positioned at a distance of 0.5 to 2 cm from the surface to be treated, in a plane parallel to it. An electric field is created between each anode and the corresponding cathode, and the air located between the two is projected onto the glazing.
Chaque tête de traitement est active pour une largeur de vitrage d'environ 6 cm ; plusieurs têtes de traitements peuvent ainsi être positionnées côte à côte en fonction de la largeur à traiter du vitrage, l'ensemble des têtes de traitement étant déplacé simultanément le long du vitrage.Each treatment head is active for a glazing width of approximately 6 cm; several treatment heads can thus be positioned side by side depending on the width to be treated of the glazing, all the treatment heads being moved simultaneously along the glazing.
Les surfaces traitées dans cet exemple sont constituées de couches deThe surfaces treated in this example consist of layers of
Si02 d'une part, et d'oxycarbure de silicium d'autre part, de 50 nm d'épaisseur, formées selon l'enseignement de la demande WO 01/32578 précitée. Les vitrages non traités présentent des traces par endroit dans leur zone périphérique, affectant la visibilité jusqu'à environ 20 cm du bord. Au contraire, les vitrages traités présentent une qualité, uniformité et durabilité d'hydrophilie excellente et identique à celle d'une feuille de verre monolithique témoin, revêtue de la même couche. EXEMPLE 2Si0 2 on the one hand, and silicon oxycarbide on the other hand, 50 nm thick, formed according to the teaching of the aforementioned application WO 01/32578. Untreated glazing shows traces in some places in their peripheral zone, affecting visibility up to around 20 cm from the edge. On the contrary, the glazing units treated have an excellent quality, uniformity and durability of hydrophilicity and identical to that of a control monolithic glass sheet coated with the same layer. EXAMPLE 2
L'exemple 1 est reproduit avec des vitrages ne se différenciant que par le fait que la couche de Si02 est revêtue d'une couche de 20 nm d'épaisseur comportant du Ti02 photocatalytique formée selon l'enseignement des demandesExample 1 is reproduced with glazings which differ only in that the layer of Si0 2 is coated with a layer 20 nm thick comprising photocatalytic Ti0 2 formed according to the teaching of the requests
WO 97/10185, WO 97/10186, WO 99/44954. Les constatations sont identiques à celles de l'exemple 1.WO 97/10185, WO 97/10186, WO 99/44954. The findings are identical to those of Example 1.
EXEMPLE 3EXAMPLE 3
Les vitrages de l'exemple 1 sont installés dans des baies de bâtiments en utilisant du silicone comme joint de montage, puis traités selon le même principe, mais au moyen d'un appareil portable. Les constatations sont identiques à celles de l'exemple 1.The glazings of Example 1 are installed in building bays using silicone as a mounting joint, then treated according to the same principle, but using a portable device. The findings are identical to those of Example 1.
EXEMPLE 4EXAMPLE 4
Des doubles vitrages identiques à ceux de l'exemple 1 sont traités par flamme propane-oxygène. Le brûleur est positionné à une distance de 4 à 5 cm de la surface à traiter, et réglé de sorte que les flammes lèchent simplement le verre
pour que celui-ci soit assez chaud en surface, mais pas chaud en profondeur. Un simple lavage à l'eau distillée restaure une hydrophilie aussi durable, et de qualité identique à celle présentée par la feuille monolithique témoin.
Double glazing identical to that of Example 1 is treated with a propane-oxygen flame. The burner is positioned at a distance of 4 to 5 cm from the surface to be treated, and adjusted so that the flames simply lick the glass so that it is warm enough on the surface, but not hot in depth. A simple washing with distilled water restores a hydrophilicity as durable, and of quality identical to that presented by the monolithic control sheet.
