High temperature ceramic coatings for ceramic tile and glass are limited to the use of ceramic enamel (pigmented glass frit mixed with solvents and other coating modifiers) coating compositions or silicate-based coating compositions. Ceramic enamel coating compositions consist of primarily solvent and is known in the industry to weaken glass substrates from 20% to 50%. Silicate-based coatings also weaken the glass but are diluted with water as opposed to solvent.
Disclosed herein is a heat curable aqueous composition comprising:
(a) water;
(b) at least 5 weight % sodium pyrophosphate, at least 5 weight % sodium phosphate monobasic, at least 5 weight % sodium triphosphate, at least 5 weight % monoammonium phosphate, at least 5 weight % diammonium phosphate, or at least 5 weight % of a mixture thereof, based on the total weight of the composition including the weight of the water; and
(c) at least one pigment, or at least one metal-containing ingredient, or a mixture of at least one pigment and at least one metal-containing ingredient.
Also disclosed herein are methods of applying the composition to a substrate.
Further disclosed herein is an article comprising a substrate and a coating disposed on a surface of the substrate, wherein the coating is formed from the composition.

In certain embodiments, the compositions can be applied at room temperature and at neutral pH (e.g., 6.5 to 7.5, more particularly 6.9 to 7.1, most particularly 7). In other embodiments, the compositions can be applied at a pH of 3.0 to 7.5, more particularly 3.5 to 7.2. In certain embodiments, the compositions provide a very opaque coating with thinner coatings as compared to present ceramic enamel (frit based) coatings. In certain embodiments, the coating composition provides a coating that may not weaken the substrate, especially a glass substrate, to as great a degree as ceramic enamel and silicate coatings. In certain embodiments, the composition may strengthen a substrate consisting of glass and/or ceramic.
In certain embodiments, the compositions are a water based phosphate-containing coating for high temperature applications that is intended to be attached to glass and ceramic surfaces. The phosphate bonds the metal-containing ingredient in the coating.

In certain embodiments, the composition includes 0.5 to 4 weight %, particularly 1.0 to 2 weight %, of at least one transition metal compound, post transition metal compound, or metalloid compound based on the total dry weight of the composition. Although not bound by any theory, it is believed that the transition metal compound, post transition metal compound, or metalloid compound may increase the bond density within the coating.
In certain embodiments the metal-containing ingredient is mixed metal oxide. The mixed metal oxide may be a mixed metal oxide pigment. Mixed metal oxide pigments are compounds comprised of a group of two or more metals and oxygen. The most common crystal structures are rutile (MeO2) hematite (Me2O3) or spinel (Me3O4). Metals commonly present include: cobalt, iron, trivalent chrome, tin, antimony, titanium, manganese and aluminum. Illustrative mixed metal oxide pigments include the following shown below in Table 1:
In certain embodiments, the composition may include at least one inorganic pigment that is not a mixed metal oxide. The pigment, a mixed metal oxide or otherwise, provides a specific color to the coating.
In certain embodiments, the composition may include an inorganic material that provides a specific property or properties such as electrical (insulative, conductive, capacitive), thermal (insulative or conductive), ferro electric, pyro electric, piezoelectric, optical refractive index, or magnetic.

An additional optional additive is at least one peroxide such as sodium peroxide, potassium peroxide or lithium peroxide.
Another optional additive is phosphoric acid.
In certain embodiments, the compositions include frit particles. In certain embodiments, the compositions do not include frit particles.
In certain embodiments, the compositions do not include organic solvents, particularly volatile organic solvents (VOCs). In other embodiments, the compositions may include a very small amount (e.g., less than 25 wt %, more particularly less than 10 wt %, based on the total weight of the aqueous composition) of VOCs.
In certain embodiments, the compositions do not include any dyes.
In certain embodiments, the compositions can be applied at a pH of 3 to 12.
The compositions disclosed herein may be applied, for example, via digital ink, silk screen, spray, roll-coat, silk screen, flood coat, gravure, lithography, offset printing, flexography, or transfer printing.
The compositions may be made by mechanically mixing together (e.g., via milling) the components at room temperature. The composition may also be filtered to obtain the desired particle size. For example, the composition may be passed through at least one or more absolute filters (e.g., 20 μm, 5 μm and/or 1 μm).
In certain embodiments, the particles in the composition (e.g., pigment particles) have an average diameter of less than 10 μm, more particularly less than 5 μm, and most particularly less than 1 μm. Small particle size is important for reducing nozzle clogging in print heads due to the diameter of the nozzles.
The pigment particles in the composition may settle out of suspension over time, and thus the print head may be associated with an ink circulation system to minimize pigment drop-out. The size of the pigments and the viscosity of the composition along with other formulation modifications may be adapted such that a settling velocity of the pigments is reduced. The composition may sediment one or several times, however the composition resumes its original structure and pigment distribution by stirring, circulating or oscillating the ink.
In certain embodiments, the compositions disclosed herein are particularly useful for digital printing. By “digital printing” is meant a digitally controlled ejection or application of the composition that is used to position (ink) colorants in pre-defined patterns onto a surface. In certain embodiments, the composition may be a fluid that is ejected in the form of drops. In certain embodiments, the process involves circulating the composition within at least one piezo print head, and printing a digital image or full coverage with at least one piezo print head by applying drops of the composition onto the substrate.
In certain embodiments, the viscosity of the composition is such that the composition can be discharged from an inkjet head, especially a printer head utilizing a piezoelectric transducer to drive the ink in a controlled way for digital printing or full coverage coating. For example, the composition may have a viscosity of less than or equal to 300 cP, more particularly less than or equal to 250 cP, even more particularly less than or equal to 75 cP, and most particularly less than or equal to 30 cP. In certain embodiments, the composition may have a viscosity of 2 cP to 30 cP, more particularly 2 cP to 25 cP, and most particularly 2 cP to 20 cP. The viscosity is measured on a Brookfield RVDV-11+PX viscometer using spindle 00S at 100 rpm.
In certain embodiments, the compositions provide highly reflective coatings that have a high total solar reflection (TSR). The TSR coatings can be used for a variety of applications, but are particularly useful for improving the performance of photovoltaic cells. The coating compositions disclosed herein can bond to rutile-based titanium dioxide at high temperature without negatively altering the color as opposed to a silicate based coating that would slightly grey and reduce the TSR. These phosphate coatings are designed to provide high TSR by improving the reflectivity in both the visible and the near infrared (IR) and, optionally, in the medium and far IR. The initial range is from 300 nm to 2500 nm; however, heat generated from the ground and other sources can emit infrared wavelengths larger than 2500 nm. Dependent on the structure of a solar cell panel, the phosphate coating can be applied to the second (S2), third (S3), or fourth (S4) surface of the glass if the panel contains two glass components. Examples of a TSR formulations are shown below in Table 2.
The composition is heat curable. During curing, water is removed via evaporation with high temperature to promote bonding between the phosphate and the metal-containing ingredient and/or between the phosphate, and to the substrate surface. Curing temperature can depend on substrate requirements. For example, the curing may be at 420 to 750° C., more particularly 600 to 700° C. In another example, tempering glass requires 650 to 800° C. and will also cure the applied coating. However, a temperature as low as 600° C., or 420° C. in some embodiments, will provide acceptable cure
Illustrative glass substrates to which the compositions disclosed herein may be applied to include, but are not limited to, architectural components such as the first, second, third or fourth surface of an insulated glass unit (IGU) for commercial, industrial or residential buildings and homes; automotive glass, including both laminated and non-laminated; appliance glass; furniture glass; interior wall glass; shower divider glass; door glass; and glass used in electronics such as for photovoltaics. Glass substrates would include both tempered and non-tempered and annealed glass with thicknesses ranging from 0.005 mm to 12 mm. Illustrative types of glass include silica oxide, silicates, phosphates, and borosilicates.
Illustrative ceramic substrates include, but are not limited to, architectural components such as flooring, roofing, ceilings and walls for both exterior and interior surfaces. Illustrative types of ceramic include alumina, silicon nitride, silicon carbide, zirconia, beryllium oxide, glass-ceramics, boron carbide, silicon carbides, tungsten carbides, porcelain, carbon, graphites, composites and ceramic fibers.

In certain embodiments, the thickness of the composition disposed on the substrate (after curing) may range from 0.25 to 100, more particularly from 2 to 50, and most particularly from 2 to 12, μm. In certain embodiments, the thickness of the composition disposed on the substrate (after application but prior to curing) may range from 0.05 to 200, more particularly from 0.5 to 100, and most particularly from 1 to 25 μm.
A large portion of the commercial and industrial inkjet printers use the piezoelectric print head technology. A piezoelectric crystal material (generally called “PZT” for lead zirconate titanate) in or immediately adjacent to an ink-filled chamber behind each nozzle is used to eject ink drops. When a voltage is applied, the piezoelectric material changes shape, which generates a pressure pulse in the fluid forcing a droplet of ink from the nozzle. This type of piezo print head is known as drop-on-demand (DOD). Other alternative piezo based print heads can offer multiple drop-on-demand (MDOD) and can allow for higher viscosities as well as larger solid particle size components within the silicate resin. Piezo print heads can offer a wide variety of inks and are able to handle high viscosity ink. Piezo print heads are offered by several producers and classified as small, medium and large print heads depending on the nozzle and drop size. A small print head may have a nozzle opening with a diameter of about 20 microns and may fire drops of 5-20 picolitres. Medium and large print heads have nozzle opening within the range of 30-40 microns and may fire drops of 20-100 picolitres. Cp or mPas is generally used to define the viscosity of ink-jet inks. One cp is equal to one mPas. Piezo print heads may handle inks with a viscosity of a few cp to more than 50 cp. Recently, industrial flat bed printers have been developed with an ink circulation system reducing the risk that the ink dries in the nozzle opening when the print head is not active.
The aqueous compositions disclosed herein are suitable for ink-based digital printing. “Variable data lithography printing,” or “ink-based digital printing,” or “digital offset printing,” or “spray systems” or “curtain coating” or “analog transducer driven printing”, as these terms may be used throughout this disclosure, refer to lithographic printing of variable image data for producing images on a substrate that are changeable with each subsequent rendering of an image on the substrate in an image forming process. “Variable data lithographic printing” includes offset printing of ink images using lithographic ink where the images are based on digital image data that may vary from image to image. Ink-based digital printing uses a variable data lithography printing system, or digital offset printing system. A “variable data lithography system” is a system that is configured for lithographic printing using lithographic inks and based on digital image data, which may be variable from one image to the next.
The inkjet method is not particularly limited and may be of any known system, for example, a charge control system of ejecting an ink utilizing an electrostatic attraction force, a drop on demand system of utilizing a vibration pressure of a piezo element (pressure pulse system), an acoustic inkjet system of converting electric signals into acoustic beams, irradiating them to an ink, and ejecting the ink utilizing a radiation pressure, and a thermal inkjet system of heating an ink to form bubbles and utilizing the resultant pressure (BUBBLEJET®).
In certain embodiments, a pressure generation unit (for example, piezo element) using the pressure pulse method is used, the pressure generation unit is driven to control an amount of change in volume within each pressure chamber and thereby the droplet diameter of the ink composition to be ejected from the nozzle is changed to eject the ink composition from the nozzle; and a method where the pressure generation unit is driven many times, to thereby control the number of droplets ejected from the nozzle, and plural droplets are combined before landing.
The inkjet head used in the inkjet method may be either an on-demand system or a continuous system. The ejection system includes, specifically, for example, an electric-mechanical conversion system (for example, single cavity type, double cavity type, bender type, piston type, share mode type, and shared wall type, etc.), an electric-thermal conversion system (for example, thermal inkjet type, BUBBLEJET® type, etc.), an electrostatic attraction system (for example, electric field control type, and slit jet type, etc.), and an electric ejecting system (for example, spark jet type, etc.) and any of the ejection systems may be used.
In certain embodiments, the image forming method includes, after the ink applying step, a heating fixing step for heating and fixing the ink image formed by the application of the ink composition by placing the image in contact with a heated surface. By adding a heating fixing treatment, fixing of the image on the recording medium is achieved, and the resistance of the image to abrasion and water soaking can be further enhanced.
The heating method is not particularly limited, but methods of non-contact drying such as a method of heating with a heat generator such as a nichrome wire heater; a method of supplying warm air or hot air; and a method of heating with a halogen lamp, an infrared lamp, microwave, or the like, may be suitably exemplified. The method of heating is not particularly limited, but methods of performing heating and fixing by contact such as, for example, a method of pressing a heat plate to the image-formed surface of the recording medium, and a method of passing the image through a pair of rollers using a heating and pressing apparatus equipped with a pair of heating and pressing rollers, a pair of heating and pressing belts, or a heating and pressing belt disposed on the side of the image-recorded surface of the recording medium and a retaining roller disposed on the opposite side.
In certain embodiments, after the ink composition is applied to a substrate the composition-bearing substrate is subjected to a tempering process.
