Claims
- 1. Multilayer protective web having high reflectivity for the far infra-red spectral region and good transmissivity for the visible light and near infra-red spectral regions comprising a transparent carrier foil, a thin layer of a metal selected from the group of silver, gold aluminum and copper, and at least one dielectric covering layer of a thickness in the range from 15 to 40 nm, on each side of said metal layer all on the same side of said carrier foil, wherein, at least one of said dielectric covering layers has a bismuth oxide content such that bismuth constitutes between 10% and 85% by weight of the metal content of said covering layer, the remainder of the metal compound content of said dielectric layers being at least one compound, selected from the group consisting of oxides, nitrides and oxide nitrides of at least one metal selected from the group consisting of titanium, tin, lead, indium, zinc, tantalum, cerium and antimony.
- 2. Multilayer web according to claim 1, in which said carrier foil is a polyester foil.
- 3. Multilayer web according to claim 1, in which said at least one dielectric covering layer is composed of a corrosion-protection layer of bismuth oxide and a layer for protection against ultraviolet light of a substance selected from the group consisting of titanium oxide and titanium oxide nitride.
- 4. Multilayer web according to claim 3, in which said metal layer is of silver, adjacent to which there is on both sides thereof a layer protective against ultraviolet light of a substance selected from the group consisting of titanium oxide and titanium oxide-nitride and, on the side of each of the latter layers away from the silver layer there is a corrosion-protection layer of bismuth oxide.
- 5. Multilayer web according to claim 2 or claim 4 in which 20% to 60% of said overall thickness of said at least one covering layer (16,17) is provided by said corrosion-protection layer of bismuth oxide and 40% to 80% of said thickness is provided by said layer for protection against ultraviolet light.
- 6. Multilayer web according to claim 3 or claim 4, in which there are two dielectric covering layers each composed of a corrosion-protection layer of bismuth oxide and a layer for protection against ultraviolet light, said two layers being of different thickness, with that one of said layers that lies between said carrier (10,20) and said metal layer being thicker than the one of said covering layers on the other side of said metal layer.
- 7. Multilayer web as defined in claim 1, in which at least one of said two covering layers (21,23) is a mixed oxide layer consisting of bismuth oxide and at least one oxide selected from the group consisting of oxides of the metals tin, lead, indium, zinc, titanium, tantalum, cerium and antimony.
- 8. Multilayer web as defined in claim 7, in which at least one said covering layer (21,23) has a bismuth oxide content in which the bismuth content chemically bound in bismuth oxide constitutes between 10% and 50% of the total content of metal combined in oxide form.
- 9. Multilayer web as defined in claim 7, in which said at least one covering layer of mixed oxide material is a mixed oxide of the metals bismuth, indium, tin and lead.
- 10. Multilayer web as defined in claim 9, in which the content of metal combined with oxygen as oxide is approximately 15% by weight bismuth, 25% by weight indium, 25% by weight tin, and 35% by weight lead.
