It consists of a pair of electrodes provided along the sides of the substrate, and a transparent conductive thin film connected to these electrodes and provided over almost the entire surface of the transparent substrate.The film quality of this transparent conductive thin film changes depending on the location. It is characterized in that the resistance of the transparent conductive thin film in a portion of the transparent substrate where it is desired to quickly defrost or defrost is different from the resistance of other portions due to changes in film quality.

耐久性に悪影響を及ぼす。また、これより薄い場
合は抵抗値が大きくなり過ぎ、電流がほとんど流

発揮しえなくなる。 The value of the sheet resistance of the transparent conductive thin film is preferably 5Ω/□ or less in consideration of the optimum amount of heat generation for the defogging effect and the electromotive force of the battery power supply. Therefore, the appropriate thickness of the transparent conductive thin film is about 0.5 to 1 μm. if,
If the film thickness becomes thicker than this, it will adversely affect the adhesion and the durability of the film itself. If it is thinner than this, the resistance value will be too large and almost no current will flow, making it impossible for a battery power source to provide an effective defogging function.
金属薄膜を用いる場合には、厚くすると着色す

As the film quality changes, the resistance changes, and as a result, by appropriately selecting the part where the film quality is changed, it is possible to concentrate current on the part where it is desired to rapidly defrost or defrost, thereby causing local heat generation.

According to the electrically conductive transparent member for automobiles of the present invention, the thickness of the transparent electrically conductive thin film is uniform throughout the film, but the film quality varies depending on the location, and the resistance of parts where rapid defogging is particularly required is higher than that of other parts. It is made larger or smaller, and the current is concentrated in this part. At this time, the film quality can be determined, for example, by applying hydrogen peroxide to replenish oxygen defects and increasing the resistance, or by applying acid or alkali to deteriorate the transparent conductive thin film material and increase the resistance. You may do so. As a result, defogging begins quickly in the area where the current is concentrated, and the range of defogging expands from there toward the surrounding area.
本発明に係る自動車用導電性透明部材によれ
ば、次のような効果を奏する。
According to the conductive transparent member for automobiles according to the present invention, the following effects are achieved.
(イ) 発熱パターンが、迅速な視界の確保が必要と
される部分に電流密度が集中するように形成さ
れているため、水滴等による曇りは勿論、ガラ
ス外側の氷結も容易、迅速に解氷され、視界確
保したい場所を中心に立ち上がりのよい解曇機
能を持たせることができる。(b) The heat generation pattern is formed in such a way that the current density is concentrated in areas where quick visibility is required, so not only does it prevent fogging due to water droplets, etc., but it also easily prevents ice from forming on the outside of the glass, and quickly melts the ice. It is possible to have a defogging function with a quick start-up mainly in areas where you want to maintain visibility.
(ロ) ガラス表面での電気抵抗体による発熱である
ため、従来のデフロスタ装置による方法に比べ
エンジン冷却水低温時の解曇の迅速性に優れ、
また騒音も生じない。(b) Because the heat is generated by the electric resistor on the glass surface, defogging is faster when the engine coolant is low compared to methods using conventional defroster devices.
Also, no noise is generated.
(ハ) 従来の熱線デフオツガのような横縞は生じな
いため、視認性が向上する。(c) Visibility is improved because horizontal stripes do not occur as with conventional hot-wire defogger.

An ITO film was formed on the transparent substrate 1 in substantially the same manner as in the first example except that oxygen gas was uniformly introduced onto the transparent substrate 1. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 6, extremely diluted hydrochloric acid was applied to the intermediate part 1b sandwiched between the upper part 1a and the lower part 1c of the transparent substrate 1. As a result, the intermediate portion 1 of the transparent substrate 1
b (the cross-hatched area) was degraded by dilute hydrochloric acid, and the resistance of the transparent conductive thin film in the middle part 1b was greater than that in the upper part 1a and the lower part 1c. After fogging the rear window glass 7 by spraying steam on it, electricity was applied to the transparent conductive thin film. As the middle part of the rear window glass 7 had a large resistance, a lot of heat was generated in the middle part, as shown in FIGS. 7 a to c. The cloudiness was removed within a short period of time, mainly in this middle area.
