However, when the content ratio of the silica fine particles is larger than the limit, the durability of the low reflection coating of the present invention is deteriorated.

Moreover, alkali resistance and moisture resistance are inferior.

Abstract
Description
前記低反射コーティングは、中実な球状で平均粒径が80~150nmであるシリカ微粒子が、シリカを主成分とするバインダによって固定されてなる多孔質膜であって、
前記バインダはアルミニウム化合物をさらに含み、
前記低反射コーティングにおける成分の含有率が、質量%表示で、
前記シリカ微粒子 55~70%
前記バインダにおけるシリカ 25~40%
前記アルミニウム化合物をAl2O3に換算して 2~7%
であり、
前記低反射コーティングの膜厚が80~800nmであり、
前記低反射コーティングを基板に施すことにより得られる透過率ゲインが2.5%以上である、低反射コーティングを提供する。ここで、透過率ゲインは、波長域380~850nmにおける平均透過率に関し、前記低反射コーティングを施す前の前記基板の平均透過率に対する、前記低反射コーティングを施した前記基板の平均透過率の増分、として定義する。
ガラス板と、
前記ガラス板の主表面の少なくとも片方に形成されている、上記本発明の低反射コーティングと、
を有する低反射コーティング付き基板を提供する。
ガラス板を備えた光電変換装置であって、
前記ガラス板の光が入射する主表面に、上記本発明の低反射コーティングが形成されている、光電変換装置を提供する。
前記シリカ微粒子は、平均粒径が80~150nmであり、好ましくは100nmを超え150nm以下の略球状の一次粒子である。シリカは有機ポリマ材料より硬度が高く、屈折率が比較的低いため、バインダとシリカ微粒子からなる多孔質層の見かけの屈折率をさらに低減することができる。さらに、シリカからなる略球形で粒径がよく揃った一次粒子は、商業的スケールで低コストで生産されており、量・質・コスト的な入手性に優れるからである。ここで、シリカ微粒子の「平均粒径」とは、レーザー回折式粒度分布測定法により測定した粒度分布において、体積累積が50%に相当する粒径(D50)を意味する。
ガラス板がフロート法によって製造されるフロート板ガラスである場合、フロート法による製造時にフロートバス(熔融錫)に接していたガラス板の表面には、フロートバスから錫が拡散している。そこで、ガラス板の表面に侵入する錫の量を、フロートバスにおける製造条件によって制御することにより、所望の反射率を有する主表面を有するガラス板を製造することができる。例えば、溶融錫の成分の調整は、溶融錫の微量を酸化する程度の酸化性ガスを、溶融錫浴中に混入させることと、鉄成分を溶融錫中に含ませることで行うことができる。また、溶融錫浴中は、窒素ガスと水素ガスとが供給されて還元性雰囲気が保たれているが、溶融錫浴のガス圧力を調整することによって、大気中の酸素を混入させて、溶融錫浴中に微量の酸化性ガスを供給することができる。また、水素ガスの濃度を微量調節することにより、溶融錫浴中に供給する酸化性ガスの供給量を調節することもできる。
分光光度計(UV-3100PC、株式会社島津製作所製)を用い、低反射コーティングの形成前後における基板(本実施例ではガラス板)の透過率曲線(透過スペクトル)をそれぞれ測定した。平均透過率は、波長380~850nmにおける透過率を平均化して算出した。低反射コーティングを施した基板の平均透過率の、該低反射コーティングを施す前の基板の平均透過率に対する増分を透過率ゲインとした。
コーティングを電界放射型走査型電子顕微鏡(S-4500、株式会社日立製作所製)によって観察した。また、コーティングの30°斜め上方からの断面におけるFE-SEM写真から、測定点5点でのコーティングの厚みの平均値を、コーティングの厚みとした。
得られた低反射コーティング付き基板の耐アルカリ性を、以下の方法により評価した。低反射コーティング付き基板を、温度60℃、水酸化カルシウム飽和水溶液に3時間浸漬した。浸漬前後の透過率を前述の分光光度計により測定し、それらの差の絶対値によって耐アルカリ性を評価した。
得られた低反射コーティングの耐塩水性を評価するため、塩水噴霧試験(ソルトスプレイテスト)を実施した。基板上に施した低反射コーティングについて前述の平均透過率を測定し、その後JIS C8917:2005付属書4に準拠する条件で塩水噴霧を行なった後に平均透過率を測定し、塩水噴霧前後の平均透過率の差の絶対値を耐塩水性とした。具体的には、塩水噴霧は、温度35℃、濃度5質量%のNaCl水溶液をミスト状にして96時間噴霧した。
得られた低反射コーティングの耐湿性を評価するため、促進試験としてプレッシャクッカテストを実施した。基板上に施した低反射コーティングを、温度130℃、2気圧、湿度100%に設定した試験槽内に1時間保持し、印加した圧力を解除したのち槽内から取り出して室温まで放冷する工程からなる試験サイクルを、2サイクル施すことにより本発明でのプレッシャクッカテストとした。この試験を施す前と施した後での平均透過率をそれぞれ測定し、平均透過率の差の絶対値を、プレッシャクッカテストによる耐湿性の評価とした。
