Many glass manufacturers want to develop new products and seek advice from our technical department about the glass coating target. The following is the relevant knowledge summarized by the technical department of RSM:
The application of glass coating sputtering target in the glass industry is mainly to make low radiation coated glass. Furthermore, to use the principle of magnetron sputtering to sputter multi-layer film on glass to achieve the role of energy-saving, light control, and decoration.
Low radiation coated glass is also known as energy-saving glass. In recent years, with the increase of energy conservation and emission reduction, and improved quality of life, the traditional building glass is gradually replaced by energy-saving glass. It is driven by this market demand that almost all large glass deep-processing enterprises are rapidly increasing the production line of coated glass.
Correspondingly, the demand for target materials for glass coating is increasing rapidly. The sputtering target materials for glass coating mainly include chromium sputtering target, titanium sputtering target, nickel chromium sputtering target, silicon aluminum sputtering target and so on. Further details are as follows:
Chromium Sputtering Target
Chromium sputtering targets are widely used in hardware tool coating, decorative coating, and flat display coating. Hardware coating is used in various mechanical and metallurgical applications such as robot tools, turning tools, molds (casting, stamping). The film’s thickness is generally 2~10um, and it requires high hardness, low wear, impact resistance, and resistance with thermal shock and high adhesion property. Now, chromium sputtering targets are commonly applied in the glass coating industry. The most important application is the preparation of automotive rearview mirrors. With the increasing requirements of automotive rearview mirrors, many companies have switched from the original aluminizing process to the vacuum sputtering chromium process.
Titanium Sputtering Target
Titanium sputtering targets are commonly used in hardware tool coating, decorative coating, semiconductor components, and flat display coating. It is one of the core materials for preparing integrated circuits, and the required purity is usually over 99.99%.
Nickel Chromium Sputtering Target
Nickel chromium sputtering target is widely used in the production of sponge nickel and decorative coating areas.It can form a decorative coating on ceramic surfaces or a solder layer in-circuit device fabrication when evaporated in a vacuum.
Silicon Aluminum Sputtering Target
Silicon aluminum sputtering target can be applied in semiconductor, chemical vapor deposition (CVD), physical vapor deposition (PVD) display.
Another important application of the glass’s target material is to prepare an automobile rearview mirror, mainly including chromium target, aluminum target, titanium oxide target. With the continuous improvement of automotive rearview mirror quality requirements, many enterprises have changed from the original aluminum plating process to the vacuum sputtering chromium plating process.
