Definitions

  • Provisional Application Serial No. 62/108677 filed on January 28, 2015, of U.S. Provisional Application Serial No. 62/157558, filed on May 6, 2015, and of U.S. Provisional Application No. 62/279106, filed on January 15, 2016, the contents of which are relied upon and
  • the present disclosure is directed to glasses suitable as a component in a frit, the glass- based frit and a glass assembly sealed using the glass-based frit.
  • glass-based frits suitable for use in very different applications, with very different sealing methods.
  • the glass-based frits of the present disclosure share very similar constituents and exhibit similar physical and rheological properties.
  • a typical VIG design includes two sealed soda-lime glass sheets with support spacers positioned therebetween.
  • the support spacers can be on the order of from about 100 to about 200 micrometers ( ⁇ ) in diameter.
  • the basis of the VIG thermal efficiency relies on a vacuum of about 10 "4 Torr established between the two glass sheets.
  • long-term hermeticity is needed to maintain this vacuum and thus assure a continued low U- value throughout the window's expected lifetime (up to 20 years, or more).
  • This means the seal must exhibit superior corrosion resistance, for example aqueous durability, to withstand environmental agents such as water or salt, as well as provide excellent adhesion and mechanical strength to withstand long term mechanical stresses.
  • the glass used in VIG assemblies may be thinner than other non-VTG window assemblies, for example in a range from about 2 millimeters to about 3 millimeters.
  • thinner glass thicknesses for VIG assemblies may require the soda-lime glass sheets be thermally-tempered. This, in turn, requires that sealing of the glass sheets be accomplished at a temperature typically not exceeding about 400°C to avoid stress relief in the tempered assemblies.
  • CTE coefficient of thermal expansion
  • VIG assemblies typically do not contain heat sensitive
  • VIG sub-assembly comprising glass substrates in contact with frit sealing material disposed therebetween can be heated in an oven, for example, at a suitable sealing temperature and for a sufficient time to seal the glass substrates via the frit without fear of damaging sensitive components.
  • OLED organic light emitting diode
  • sealing methods for OLED devices may differ substantially from those suitable for VIG sealing
  • the temperature sensitivity of the organic material comprising the electroluminescent component of the OLED material limits process temperatures to less than about 125°C, and more conservatively to temperatures not exceeding 100°C.
  • the frit employed for sealing an OLED device is typically sealed with a laser that irradiates only the frit positioned between the glass substrates without heating the organic electroluminescent material above the damage threshold.
  • low temperature frits i.e., frits with low T g
  • T g low temperature frits
  • pre-sintering refers to an initial heating of a frit deposited on a glass substrate to adhere the frit to the substrate, for example prior to placing the opposing glass substrate in position on the frit wall formed in the pre-sintering step and the sealing the the substrates together by exposing the pre-sintered frit wall to a laser beam with sufficient optical power at an appropriate wavelength. Because pre-sintering can be performed prior to the inclusion of organic material in the glass package, pre-sintering can be performed in an oven, even for the eventual manufacture of an OLED device.
  • the predictor of sealing temperature for a glass frit is glass transition temperature (T g ), which is the temperature of the glass during heating at which the glass structure first becomes capable of motion and relaxation at the atomic level. Accordingly, development of glass-based frits for OLED device sealing has been directed toward achieving a consistently lower glass transition temperature while maintaining other key attributes (especially aqueous durability) at acceptable levels.
  • glasses suitable for use as a component in a frit and a glass assembly sealed using the frit.
  • the glasses belong to families of vanadium phosphate glasses, and in various embodiments may be lead and/or antimony and/or barium free.

  • V2O5 content for VIG designated frits may be lower than are possible for good OLED laser frit sealing, discussed later in the present disclosure, T g values rise as V2O5 content falls below about 45 mole % and approaches 40 mole %. While frits with higher T g may be suitable for other sealing applications, their usefulness for VIG sealing is less favored. This increase in T g can be seen with the aid of Table 5, where sealing temperatures of the listed glasses may exceed 400°C. Consequently, cullet testing was anticipated to be indicative of the results for flow button testing and flow button beaker testing (i.e., aqueous durability testing) was not performed for these samples.
  • glass compositions described in Table 5 can exhibit sealing temperatures in the neighborhood of 400°C and should not be dismissed as potential glass frit candidates, even for some VIG applications.

  • the new compositions represented in FIG. 4 (flow button) match or exceed the aqueous durability of the conventional glass sample CI .
  • the new compositions CI, C2 and C3 can also be adjusted to exhibit excellent CTE compatibility with soda-lime substrate glass, for example with the use of a CTE-modifying filler material.
  • thermomechanical analysis of sample C2 (see Table 3) initially as a particulate that was subsequently fired to 380°C for about 1 hour.
  • frit compositions suitable for VIG applications may require a filler to assure minimal CTE mismatch with soda-lime glass.
  • the filler used for examples described herein was zirconium phosphate, although other fillers such as zirconium tungsten-phosphate, or ⁇ - quartz may also be used.

  • Soda-lime glasses typically exhibit a CTE in a range from about 8.80 ppm/°C to about 9.20 ppm/°C. It should be noted that the CTE depicted in FIG. 5, over the greater range from about room temperature to about 250°C, does not vary significantly from the CTE in the range from 50°C to 200°C.
  • VIG frit seal geometries can involve a relatively thick (0.200 millimeter to 0.500 millimeter) frit seal between two sheets of soda-lime glass and comprise a relatively thick external sintered frit or frit fillet for additional mechanical support.
  • the frit paste used in forming the frit seal and the fillet is typically pen- dispensed on one or both of the outside edges of the two glass plates, but can also be screen- printed, and is expected to flow and infiltrate between the two glass plates.

  • This geometry was mimicked in the laboratory by dispensing frit pastes with a syringe dispenser along the outside edge of two soda-lime glass plates separated by a 0.5 millimeter glass spacer.
  • a suitable frit paste should flow between the two glass plates when dispensed along the edge and form a well-adhered, defect-free glossy coating with a well- adhered thick outside frit seal when fired.
  • Suitable organic binders may include without limitation cellulose (e.g., ethyl cellulose, e.g., T-100, or Dow 200 available from Dow Chemical
  • the paste may further include a dispersant, and may also include a filler material. It should also be noted that Theologically, the frit glass chemistry (e.g., glass composition) was largely irrelevant to the paste behavior.
  • the binder level should be in a range from about 0.48 weight % to about 0.63 weight % for optimal frit paste infiltration. At binder levels lower than about 0.48 weight %, such as 0.38 weight % for example, frit paste infiltration becomes excessive, while at binder levels in excess of about 0.63 weight %, such as about 0.91 weight % (RFP-3), frit paste infiltration is absent. Binder level was found to be more significant in optimizing frit paste infiltration than solvent level (see for example RFP-3 vs. RFP-12 in Table 6).

  • frit pastes RFP-7, and RFP-9 and RFP- 12 comprised glass frit C2.
  • the solids loading and particle sizes of the frit pastes were different for the various pastes, as was the binder level and binder molecular weight.
  • Frit paste RFP-3 exhibits mud-cracking (caused by excess shrinkage during binder and solvent burn-out), which is undesirable for VIG sealing, as well as little or no frit paste infiltration between the two plates of glass.
  • Frit paste RFP-6 (FIG. 6B) exhibits mud-cracking, but also exhibits frit paste infiltration.
  • Frit paste RFP-9 (FIG. 6C) does not exhibit mud-cracking, but shows excess paste infiltration.
  • frit paste RFP-10 (FIG. 6D) combines the desired attributes of no mud-cracking and acceptable paste infiltration.
  • Mud-cracking is an issue that can directly impact fired frit seal strength. Mud-cracking was eliminated in example frits disclosed herein by increasing the frit particle size to a D 50 range from about 10 micrometers to about 15 micrometers from a prior range of about 1 micrometers to about 3 micrometers (RFP-7 vs. RFP-8). Reducing the total organic content of the frit paste while maintaining a fine particle size for the frit paste had no effect in preventing mud-cracking
  • the preceding non-Pb glass compositions possess a low T g and can be used to seal VIG assemblies at temperatures substantially lower than Pb-based glass, the current frit material of choice for sealing thermally- insulating windows. These lower glass transition temperatures are needed for thinner VIG assemblies, since they permit the use of tempered soda-lime glass.
