Transparent Barrier (THINNER) Coatings 2018-869

BACKGROUNDBuildings in cold climates tend to use thermally insulated glass to reduce energy use. Current industrial solutions use double or triple pane windows separated by air or inert gas for thermal insulation. Double or triple pane windows, however, require high quality sealing for gas retention, window frame retrofitting, and at least two panes...
