FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a glass laminate article 1 according to an embodiment.


Referring to FIG. 1, the glass laminate article 1 includes an adhesive film 120 attached to a base material 110, and a glass substrate layer 130 attached to the adhesive film 120.


The base material 110 may include, for example, a metal substrate, a wooden substrate, an inorganic substrate, an organic substrate, or a composite material thereof. The base material 110 may include, but is not limited to, one selected from steel, stainless steel, aluminum, copper, other metal alloys, polymers, pulp, paper, and composites thereof.


In some embodiments, the base material 110 may be obtained by coating the metal substrate, the wooden substrate, the inorganic substrate, the organic substrate, or a composite material thereof with an organic film. In some embodiments, the base material 110 may be obtained by coating the metal substrate, the wooden substrate, the inorganic substrate, the organic substrate, or a composite material thereof with a paint.


In some embodiments, the base material 110 may include a high-pressure laminate (HPL), a paint-coated metal (PCM), a medium density fiberboard (MDF), or a vinyl-coated metal (VCM). In some embodiments, the base material 110 may be used in wall panels, backsplash, the exterior of a cabinet or furniture, the exterior of home appliances, marker boards, or other construction applications.


The glass substrate layer 130 may include a glass material containing about 30 mol % to about 85 mol % SiO2, about 1 mol % to about 25 mol % Al2O3, about 0.1 mol % to about 15 mol % B2O3, about 0.1 mol % to about 10 mol % MgO, and about 0.1 mol % to about 10 mol % CaO. In some embodiments, the glass substrate layer 130 may further include, but is not limited to, Li2O, K2O, ZnO, SrO, BaO, SnO2, TiO2, V2O3, Nb2O5, MnO, ZrO2, As2O3, MoO3, Sb2O3, and/or CeO2.


The glass substrate layer 130 may have a thickness T1 of about 50 μm to about 500 μm. In some embodiments, the glass substrate layer 130 may have a thickness T1 of about 80 μm to about 400 μm, about 100 μm to about 350 μm, about 120 μm to about 300 μm, or about 150 μm to about 250 μm. When the glass substrate layer 130 is excessively thick, the glass substrate layer 130 may be easily detached due to the weight and may have an inferior adaptability with respect to a curved surface. When the glass substrate layer 130 is excessively thin, the glass substrate layer 130 may have an insufficient strength.


In some embodiments, the glass substrate layer 130 may have a transmittance of about 90% or greater with respect to visible light. In some embodiment, the glass substrate layer 130 may have a transmittance of about 93% or greater, about 95% or greater, about 96% or greater, about 97% or greater, about 98% or greater, and about 99% or greater with respect to the visible light.


The adhesive film 120 may have adhering force on both of upper and lower surfaces thereof. For example, the adhesive film 120 may include a pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) such as acryl-based, silicon-based, urethane-based, rubber-based, vinyl ether-based adhesive, etc., or an optically clear adhesive (OCA). However, one or more embodiments are not limited thereto.


When the base material 110 and the glass substrate layer 130 are adhered to each other via a liquid type adhesive, an inferior safety may be obtained as compared with a case in which the base material 110 and the glass substrate layer 130 are attached to each other via the adhesive film 120. That is, when the base material 110 and the glass substrate layer 130 are adhered to each other via the adhesive film 120, even if the glass substrate layer 130 breaks, most of shards remains as fixed by the adhesive film 120. However, when the base material 110 and the glass substrate layer 130 are adhered to each other via the liquid type adhesive, the liquid type adhesive is hardened as a solid. Then, when the glass substrate layer 130 breaks, shards of the glass substrate layer 130 are isolated and scattered from the base material 110, which may cause a safety issue.


The adhesive film 120 may have a thickness T2 of about 20 μm to about 150 μm. In some embodiments, the adhesive film 120 may have a thickness T2 of about 30 μm to about 130 μm, about 50 μm to about 120 μm, or about 70 μm to about 100 μm.



FIG. 2 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of a region II in FIG. 1.


Referring to FIG. 2, a side surface GSS of the glass substrate layer 130 may be inclined with respect to an upper surface GUS of the glass substrate layer 130 by an obtuse angle α. The obtuse angle may be about 95° to about 120°. A supplementary angle β of the obtuse angle α may be about 60° to about 85°.


A side surface FSS of the adhesive film 120 may be also inclined with respect to the upper surface GUS of the glass substrate layer 130 by a predetermined angle. In some embodiments, the side surface FSS of the adhesive film 120 may be in parallel with the side surface GSS of the glass substrate layer 130. In some embodiments, the side surface FSS of the adhesive film 120 may be substantially flush with the side surface GSS of the glass substrate layer 130.


The base material 110 may have a first side surface SS1 and a second side surface SS2 between an upper surface US and a lower surface LS thereof. The first side surface SS1 and the second side surface SS2 may be planes that are adjacent to and different from each other.


The first side surface SS1 may be substantially perpendicular to the upper surface US and/or the lower surface LS. The second side surface SS2 may be inclined with regard to the upper surface US of the base material 110 by an angle of about 95° to about 120°. In other words, an angle of about 60° to about 85° may be formed between the second side surface SS2 and an extending plane from the upper surface US of the base material 110.


When the obtuse angle α is excessively large, a distance L1 increases and a bad appearance may be obtained, and when the obtuse angle α is too small, the distance L1 decreases and a size of a product may be unintentionally reduced during manufacturing processes.


Here, each of the first side surface SS1 and the second side surface SS2 of the base material 110, the side surface FSS of the adhesive film 120, and the side surface GSS and the upper surface GUS of the glass substrate layer 130 may not be necessarily a plane, that is, one or more of the above surfaces may be a curved surface. An angle at an intersection between two curved surfaces may be an angle between tangents of the curved surfaces at the intersection.


The glass substrate layer 130 may have a first point P1 at a point where the upper surface GUS and the side surface GSS intersect with each other. In addition, the glass substrate layer 130 may have a second point P2 at a point where the lower surface GLS and the side surface GSS intersect with each other. The base material 110 may have a third point P3 at a point where the upper surface US and the second side surface SS2 intersect with each other. In addition, the base material 110 may have a fourth point P4 at a point where the first side surface SS1 and the second side surface SS2 intersect with each other.


In some embodiments, a straight line connecting the first point P1 and the second point P2 may be substantially in parallel with a straight line connecting the third point P3 and the fourth point P4. In some embodiments, a straight line connecting the first point P1 and the second point P2 may be substantially the same as a straight line connecting the third point P3 and the fourth point P4.


In some embodiments, the side surface GSS between the first point P1 and the second point P2 may smoothly continue to the side surface FSS between the second point P2 and the third point P3 at the second point P2. In some embodiments, the side surface FSS between the second point P2 and the third point P3 may smoothly continue to the second side surface SS2 between the third point P3 and the fourth point P4 at the third point P3. Here, that the two surfaces smoothly continue to each other at a contact point between the surfaces may denote that an inclination of a tangent at each point on the two surfaces gradually changes as going from one surface to another surface along the surfaces.


The distance L1 between the first point P1 that is an end of the upper surface GUS of the glass substrate layer 130 and the first side surface SS1 in a direction in parallel with the upper surface GUS of the glass substrate layer 130 is about 0.5 mm or less or about 0.2 mm or less, e.g., may be in a range between about 0.2 mm (that is, 200 μm) to about 0.5 mm (that is, 500 μm) or between 0 mm and 0.2 mm. When the distance L1 is excessively large, a gap between two glass laminate articles is large and the large gap deteriorates the external appearance when the two or more glass laminate articles that are final products are successively attached to one another.



FIG. 3 is a flowchart of a method of manufacturing a glass laminate article 1 according to an embodiment. FIGS. 4A to 4E are side sectional views illustrating a method of manufacturing the glass laminate article 1 according to an embodiment.


Referring to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4A, the adhesive film 120 may be attached to the base material 110 (S110). The base material 110 and the adhesive film 120 are described above with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2, and thus detailed descriptions thereof are omitted.


Referring to FIGS. 3 and 4B, a glass substrate layer 130m may be attached to the adhesive film 120 (S120). Here, edges of the glass substrate layer 130m may protrude further in a lateral direction than the base material 110 and the adhesive film 120, and may form an overhang region. In FIG. 4B, the overhang region protrudes in left and right directions of the base material 110 and the adhesive film 120, but the overhang region may protrude along circumferences of the base material 110 and the adhesive film 120.



FIG. 5 is a partially enlarged view of a region V of FIG. 4B in detail.


Referring to FIG. 5, the edge of the glass substrate layer 130m protrudes from the edges of the base material 110 and the adhesive film 120 in the lateral direction as much as a width OH of the overhang region. The width OH of the overhang region may be about 3 mm to about 15 mm. When the width OH of the overhang region is excessively large, the glass substrate layer 130m may break while being attached to the adhesive film 120. Alternatively, when the width OH of the overhang region is too small, there may be an issue during a scoring process that will be performed later.


Referring to FIGS. 3 and 4C, a scoring may be performed on the overhang region of the glass substrate layer 130m (S130). The scoring may be performed by forming a recess of a predetermined depth in the glass substrate layer 130m to extend as a line shape by using a scoring wheel SW. In FIG. 4C, the scoring wheel SW may score the glass substrate layer 130m while moving away (or approaching) along a line of sight direction. As a result, the recess (that is, scoring line) extending in the sight direction may be formed.


The scoring may be performed on entire overhang region along the circumference of the base material 110. For example, when the base material 110 has a square planar shape and the glass substrate layer 130m has the overhang region protruding from every side of the square planar shape, the scoring may be performed along each side of the square planar shape.



FIG. 6 is a partially enlarged view of a region VI of FIG. 4C in detail.


Referring to FIG. 6, the recess formed by the scoring operation may be formed between the edge of the glass substrate layer 130m and the edge of the base material 110. In some embodiments, the recess may be formed close to the edge of the base material 110.


For example, a distance SO between the edge of the base material 110 and the scoring line may be about 1 mm or less, about 0.9 mm or less, about 0.8 mm or less, about 0.7 mm or less, about 0.6 mm or less, or about 0.5 mm or less. When the distance SO between the edge of the base material 110 and the scoring line is excessively large, a portion of the glass substrate layer 130m, which has to be removed during a finishing process, increases, thereby degrading productivity.


In some embodiments, the distance SO between the edge of the base material 110 and the scoring line is about 0.1 mm or greater, about 0.2 mm or greater, about 0.3 mm or greater, about 0.4 mm or greater, or about 0.45 mm or greater. When the distance SO between the edge of the base material 110 and the scoring line is too small, a main portion of the glass substrate layer 130m may be affected, e.g., cracked, while the overhang region is removed.


The distance SO between the edge of the base material 110 and the scoring line may be determined based on a thickness, a physical property, etc. of the glass substrate layer 130m.


A depth SD of the scoring line may be, with respect to the thickness T1 of the glass substrate layer 130m, about 10% to about 35%, about 12% to about 34%, about 14% to about 33%, about 16% to about 32%, about 18% to about 31%, or about 20% to about 30%. If the depth SD of the scoring line is too shallow, isolation along the scoring line may not be clearly performed when the overhang region at an outer portion of the scoring portion is removed later. If the depth SD of the scoring line is too deep, the glass substrate layer 130m may be unintentionally damaged during the scoring process.


In some embodiments, a supporter 140 that may support the overhang region during the scoring process may be provided under the overhang region. When the distance SO between the edge of the base material 110 and the scoring line is relatively large, the glass substrate layer 130m may be damaged due to a pressure applied downward by the scoring wheel SW when the scoring process is performed.


However, when the distance SO between the edge of the base material 110 and the scoring line is relatively small within an allowable range, there is a low possibility of causing the above damage, and thus, the supporter 140 may not be necessary. The supporter 140 may be an arbitrary rigid body that may support the glass substrate layer 130m, and may include plastic, steel, wood, or a complex material thereof. However, one or more embodiments are not limited thereto.



FIG. 6 shows that the supporter 140 is arranged in a lateral direction of the base material 110, but in some other embodiments, the supporter 140 may be configured to accommodate the base material 110 while contacting the side surface and the lower surface of the base material 110.


Referring to FIGS. 3 and 4D, the overhang region of the glass substrate layer 130m, in particular, an outer portion of the scoring line, may be removed. As described above with reference to FIG. 4C, the scoring line may be formed so that the distance SO between the edge of the base material 110 and the scoring line may be about 1 mm or less, about 0.9 mm or less, about 0.8 mm or less, about 0.7 mm or less, about 0.6 mm or less, or about 0.5 mm or less. Therefore, when the outer portion of the scoring line is removed as shown in FIG. 4D, a protruding portion of a glass substrate layer 130n from the edge of the base material 110 (remaining overhang region) may have a length of about 1 mm or less, about 0.9 mm or less, about 0.8 mm or less, about 0.7 mm or less, about 0.6 mm or less, or about 0.5 mm or less.


The overhang region of the glass substrate layer 130n, in particular, the outer portion of the scoring line, may be removed, for example, by pressing an end portion of an upper surface of the overhang region in a downward direction, but is not limited thereto.


In some embodiments, a process of at least partially cooling down the glass substrate layer 130m may be further performed before removing the overhang region of the glass substrate layer 130m, e.g., the outer portion of the scoring line. For example, the scoring line and/or an adjacent portion of the scoring line of the glass substrate layer 130m may be cooled down to a temperature of about 0° C. or less. In some embodiments, liquid nitrogen may be sprayed to cool down the scoring line of the glass substrate layer 130m and/or the adjacent portion of the scoring line.


Referring to FIGS. 3 and 4E, a finishing process may be performed on the glass substrate layer 130n, the adhesive film 120, and the base material 110.


The finishing process is a process of partially removing the edge portion of the glass substrate layer 130n, in particular, the remaining overhang region, so that the glass substrate layer 130n may not protrude in the lateral direction of the base material 110. To this end, the remaining overhang region of the glass substrate layer 130n may be partially removed from the lateral direction thereof by, for example, a grinding, a brushing method, etc.


In particular, the glass substrate layer 130n may be finished to have the inclined side surface GSS as shown in FIG. 2. In some embodiments, the glass substrate layer 130n may be finished to have the features shown in FIG. 2.


Referring back to FIG. 2, the second side surface SS2 and the side surface GSS of the glass substrate layer 130 may be simultaneously formed. As a result, the second side surface SS2 and the side surface GSS of the glass substrate layer 130 may be substantially flush with each other. Even when the second side surface SS2 and the side surface GSS of the glass substrate layer 130 may not be flush with each other due to a momentary movement of the adhesive film 120 caused by temperature variation, a weight of the glass substrate layer 130, etc., the second side surface SS2 and the side surface GSS of the glass substrate layer 130 may be at least in parallel with each other.


Since the glass substrate layer 130n is close to a rigid body, it is easy to process the glass substrate layer 130n to have the inclined side surface GSS. However, since the adhesive film 120 includes a flexible matrix portion and adhesive components applied to opposite surfaces of the flexible matrix portion, it may be difficult to obtain a smooth inclined surface when processing the side surface of the glass substrate layer 130n in some cases. As stated above, at least the scoring line and/or the adjacent portion of the scoring line may be cooled down before performing the finishing process, and thus processability of the adhesive film 120 may be improved due to the cooling process and the smooth inclined surface may be obtained.



FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view showing an edge of a glass laminate article according to another embodiment.


Referring to FIG. 7, a base material 110a may be obtained by bonding two different kinds of base materials, that is, first and second base materials 112 and 114. In some embodiments, the base material 110a may include a first base material 112 and a second base material 114 attached onto the first base material 112. In some embodiments, the adhesive film 120 may be attached to an upper surface of the second base material 114. In some embodiments, the second base material 114 may be arranged between the adhesive film 120 and the first base material 112. The second base material 114 may have a material having a higher strength than that of the first base material 112.


In some embodiments, the first base material 112 may include a non-metal base material, e.g., HPL, PCM, MDF, or VCM. However, one or more embodiments are not limited thereto.


In some embodiments, the second base material 114 may include metal. For example, the second base material 114 may include aluminum (Al), steel, stainless steel, copper (Cu), titanium (Ti), and other metal alloys. However, one or more embodiments are not limited thereto.


A first side surface SS1 of the base material 110a may include a first surface SS12 that is a side surface of the first base material 112 and a second surface SS14 that is a side surface of the second base material 114. In addition, a second side surface SS2 of the base material 110a may be located between an upper surface of the second base material 114 (that is, an upper surface US of the base material 110a) and the second surface SS14. In some embodiments, the first base material 112 may not include an inclined surface that is inclined with respect to a lower surface thereof (that is, a lower surface LS of the base material 110a).


As described above with reference to FIG. 2, the second side surface SS2 may be in parallel with the side surface GSS of the glass substrate layer 130. In some embodiments, the second side surface SS2 may be flush with the side surface GSS of the glass substrate layer 130.


As described above with reference to FIG. 4E, the second side surface SS2 and the side surface GSS of the glass substrate layer 130 may be simultaneously formed through the same process. Here, since the second base material 114 having a relatively higher strength is located between the first base material 112 and the glass substrate layer 130, a dimensional error caused when the first base material 112 is unintentionally damaged due to the grinding, etc. may be prevented.


According to the glass laminate article and the method of manufacturing the glass laminate article of one or more embodiments, the glass laminate article having an excellent appearance and safety may be easily manufactured with less expenses.
