Abstract
Abstract A method for producing a silicon dioxide film by contacting a substrate such as glass with a treating liquid comprising a hydrosilicofluoric acid solution supersaturated with silicon dioxide to deposit a silicon dioxide film on the surface of the substrate, the method being characterized by providing a device for preventing an Si component from escaping from the treating liquid. According to the method, pollution of working environment and decrease in concentration of solution do not occur during the formation of silicon dioxide film.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
59 words
A method for producing a silicon dioxide film which comprises contacting a substrate with a treating liquid comprising a hydrosilicofluoric acid solution supersaturated with silicon dioxide to deposit a silicon dioxide film on the surface of a substrate, the method being characterized in that a means for preventing an Si component from escaping from the treating liquid is provided.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
59 words
A method for producing a silicon dioxide film which comprises contacting a substrate with a treating liquid comprising a hydrosilicofluoric acid solution supersaturated with silicon dioxide to deposit a silicon dioxide film on the surface of a substrate, the method being characterized in that a means for preventing an Si component from escaping from the treating liquid is provided.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
37 words
The method of claim 1, wherein the means for preventing Si component from escaping from the treating liquid is to form an Si component escape preventing layer at the interface between the treating liquid and a gas.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
39 words
The method of claim 2, wherein the Si component escape preventing means is to float on the treating liquid a liquid material having a low reactivity with the treating liquid and a lower specific gravity than the treating liquid.
Claim 5
Independent Claim
56 words
A method for producing a silicon dioxide film which comprises contacting a substrate with a treating liquid comprising a hydrosilicofluoric acid solution supersaturated with silicon dioxide and depositing a silicon dioxide film on a surface of said substrate, said method including a means for preventing an Si component contained in said treating liquid from escaping therefrom.
Claim 6
Independent Claim
56 words
A method for producing a silicon dioxide film which comprises contacting a substrate with a treating liquid comprising a hydrosilicofluoric acid solution supersaturated with silicon dioxide and depositing a silicon dioxide film on a surface of said substrate, said method including a means for preventing an Si component contained in said treating liquid from escaping therefrom.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
32 words
The method of claim 4, wherein said means includes forming a barrier between said treating liquid and a gas above said treating liquid, said barrier preventing said Si component from passing therethrough.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
39 words
The method of claim 4, wherein said means includes floating a liquid material on said treating liquid, said liquid material having a low reactivity with said treating liquid and a specific gravity lower than that of said treating liquid.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
13 words
The method of claim 6, wherein said treating liquid is an aliphatic hydrocarbon.
