Abstract
Abstract This specification discloses a method of forming a high performance reflective film on a glass sheet. The glass sheet is one which is at a temperature sufficiently high to pyrolyze an organic based, metal containing glass coating composition coming into contact therewith. An organic based, heated pyrolyzable, dual metal containing glass coating composition is directed against a surface of the heated glass sheet. The dual metals in this coating composition are cobalt and iron. The dual metals are present in the coating composition by weight percentage of dual metals in a range from 97% cobalt/3% iron to 90% cobalt/10% iron, preferably 96% cobalt/4% iron to 92% cobalt/8% iron, and most preferably 95% cobalt/5% iron to 93% cobalt/7% iron.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
95 words
A method of forming a high performance reflective film on a glass sheet, said glass sheet being at a temperature sufficiently high to pyrolyze an organic based, metal containing glass coating composition coming into contact therewith, said method being characterized by the step of: directing against a surface of said heated glass sheet an organic based, heat pyrolyzable, dual metal containing glass coating composition in which said dual metals are cobalt and iron, and in which said weight percentage of said dual metals are in a range from 97% cobalt/3% iron to 90% cobalt/10% iron.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
95 words
A method of forming a high performance reflective film on a glass sheet, said glass sheet being at a temperature sufficiently high to pyrolyze an organic based, metal containing glass coating composition coming into contact therewith, said method being characterized by the step of: directing against a surface of said heated glass sheet an organic based, heat pyrolyzable, dual metal containing glass coating composition in which said dual metals are cobalt and iron, and in which said weight percentage of said dual metals are in a range from 97% cobalt/3% iron to 90% cobalt/10% iron.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
26 words
The method of claim 1, in which said weight percentage of said dual metals are in a range from 96% cobalt/4% iron to 92% cobalt/8% iron.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
25 words
The method of claim 1, in which said dual metals are in a range by weight percent of 95% cobalt/5% iron to 93% cobalt/7% iron.
Claim 5
Independent Claim
109 words
A method of forming a high performance reflective film on a glass sheet, characterized by the steps of: selecting a glass sheet upon which said high performance reflective film is to be formed; heating said selected glass sheet to a temperature sufficiently high to pyrolyze an organic based, metal containing glass coating composition coming into contact therewith; and directing against a surface of said heated glass sheet an organic based, heated pyrolyzable, dual metal containing glass coating composition in which said dual metals are cobalt and iron and in which said weight percentage of said dual metals are in a range from 97% cobalt/3% iron to 90% cobalt/10% iron.
Claim 6
Independent Claim
109 words
A method of forming a high performance reflective film on a glass sheet, characterized by the steps of: selecting a glass sheet upon which said high performance reflective film is to be formed; heating said selected glass sheet to a temperature sufficiently high to pyrolyze an organic based, metal containing glass coating composition coming into contact therewith; and directing against a surface of said heated glass sheet an organic based, heated pyrolyzable, dual metal containing glass coating composition in which said dual metals are cobalt and iron and in which said weight percentage of said dual metals are in a range from 97% cobalt/3% iron to 90% cobalt/10% iron.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
26 words
The method of claim 4, in which said weight percentage of said dual metals are in a range from 96% cobalt/4% iron to 92% cobalt/8% iron.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
24 words
The method of claim 4, in which said dual metals in a range by weight percent of 95% cobalt/5% iron to 93% cobalt/7% iron.
