Description

Way of refining silica-sodium-calcium glass surface with aluminium compounds
The subject of this invention is the way of refining silica-sodium-calcium glass with aluminium compounds, pertaining to the production of basically flat items of surface modified by surface ionic exchange technology.
The glass surface modification method meaning ionic exchange is directed at obtaining favourable compressive stresses in the surface layers. As a result of larger diameter ions being exchanged into those of smaller radii, apart from a change in the chemical composition, the thermal expansion coefficient is also lowered and, as an effect of that, favourable stress system is obtained when the glass is annealed to cool the product to ambient temperatures. There are ways of refining silica-sodium-calcium glass with aluminium compounds which, when applied on a hot glass surface of temperature within the transformation range from 450 to 700°C, get decomposed forming the oxide film. At the same time, the metal oxide is diffused to surface layers and structural bonds, favourable to mechanical properties, such as smoothness, hardness and impact strength, are formed.
Particularly good results for sodium-calcium-silicate glasses have been obtained using aluminium compound of a size reduced to nanoparticles whose developed surface means very good adsorption properties. The way presented in the patent specification
PL 202940 means applying nanopowder of an aluminium compound (aluminium - hydroxide AI(OH)3 of particle size from 1 to 100 nm at best) on the glass surface and, then, exposing the product to thermal treatment within the range of transformation temperature values 580 +-150°C, yet not exceeding the deformation temperature.
Nanopowder can be applied on a hot surface directly after the product has been formed, or during the formation process, but it can also be applied on cold surfaces of the formed product and then be heated to temperature values around the glass transformation temperature. The process of nanoparticle diffusion takes place during the product annealing phase. A transient layer is formed on the product surface forming a strongly chemically bound glass truss in which aluminium ions exist in favourable octaedric coordination. Modification of sodium-calcium-silicate glasses with aluminium compounds according to PL 202940 technology leads to the growth of the glass micro-hardness by approx. 70%, transverse bending strength by approx. 35%, dynamic bending by 30%, increased resistance to scratches and better hydrolytic class as per PN-IS0719 - from HC3 to HC2. Light transmittance is not worsened.
The aim of the invention is further improvement of glass parameters superficially modified with aluminium compounds nanopowder. The way, as per the invention and similarly as in the solution according to PL 202940 described above, means the application of aluminium compounds of 1-120 nm granulation (Al.(OH)3 at best) on a cold surface of the formed product and then performing heat treatment, including: heating up and holding the product at a transformation temperature range 580 +/- 150°C, not exceeding the deformation temperature, and, final annealing of the product to temperature values below 200°C. The core of the invention is that before applying nanopowder the surfaces of the formed product are activated by dealkalization in a distilled water bath of temperature 80 to 100°C, for a period from 15 to 60 minutes. Nanopowder can be applied by dusting from gaseous phase, or spraying from liquid phase. It is good to use the nanopowder screen printing method in a water or alcohol solution.
Surface de-alkalization in distilled water bath improves conditions for aluminium ion penetration into discontinuities of the spatial silica-oxygen matrix of the superficial layer. Presence of water within tops of the cracks hydrolyses silicates in these microzones, facilitating access and incorporation of aluminium ions in the refining process taking place by turn.
Description of the way being the subject of the invention is similar to the production of vehicle glass.
The external sheet of a multi-layer vehicle glass was made from flat sodium- calcium-silicate glass produced in the float technology, cut and bent adequately to the required shape and profile. Then the semi-product underwent de-alkalization in 85°C distilled water bath for 45 minutes. The process of refining the glass sheet surface constituting external surfaces of the glass included uniform spraying of the surface with Al(OH)3 nanopowder of approx. 80 nm granulation, putting the sheet into a chamber furnace where heat treatment takes place at 650°C and then the sheet is transported to an annealing furnace where, in its segments, it is cooled to the inlet temperature being approx. 150°C. The temperature program of the annealing furnace imposed a duration period of 17 minutes for the sheet to be held within a 500 - 600°C temperature range, which caused complete incorporation of aluminium ions in the silica-oxygen matrix of the superficial layer. Apart from significantly improved mechanical and chemical properties, the refined surface got better hydrophobic characteristics.
