Title: Laminated window assembly

Description:
The invention relates to a window assembly. More particularly, the invention also relates to a laminated window assembly for a vehicle. 
     The windows of a vehicle are a prominent feature in the overall design of the vehicle. Increasingly, there is interest in reducing the solar gain into the vehicle that occurs in hot weather and reducing the heat lost from the vehicle that occurs in cold weather. Also, there is interest in maintaining or improving the visual comfort of the passengers by reducing the visible light transmittance into the passenger cabin of the vehicle. Also, it may be desirable to reduce reflections from a window, which can impact the visual comfort of the passengers. However, when coatings are added to glass to form a window for a vehicle, the visible light reflectance inside the passenger cabin can increase. 
     It would be desirable to provide a window suitable for a vehicle that enables passenger comfort and has a low visible light transmittance, low visible light reflectance, and/or a desired appearance.

It would be understood by one of ordinary skill in the art that the window assembly described herein may have applications to on-highway and off-highway vehicles. Also, the coated glass article could be utilized in a commercial or residential glazing or have, for example, architectural, photovoltaic, industrial, locomotive, naval, and aerospace applications. 
     When the laminated window assembly  10  is utilized in a vehicle  12 , the assembly  10  may be installed in an appropriate body opening  14  of the vehicle  12 . In some embodiments, the laminated window assembly  10  is a windshield, side window, or rear window of the vehicle. In other embodiments (not depicted), the laminated window assembly  10  could be utilized in another body opening in the vehicle. For example, the laminated window assembly  10  could be installed in an opening in the roof of the vehicle. In this embodiment, the laminated window assembly  10  may be utilized as a roof glazing in a sunroof or moonroof application. 
     Referring now to  FIGS. 2-4 , the laminated window assembly  10  comprises a first glass pane  16 . In some embodiments, the first glass pane  16  is not limited to a particular thickness. However, in certain embodiments, the first glass pane  16  may have a thickness of 20.0 millimeters (mm) or less. Preferably, the first glass pane  16  has a thickness of 0.5-20.0 mm.

     The first glass pane  16  may be of any of the conventional glass compositions known in the art. Preferably, the first glass pane  16  is a soda-lime-silica glass. When the first glass pane  16  is a soda-lime-silica glass, the first glass pane  16  may comprise 68-74 weight % SiO 2 , 0-3 weight % Al 2 O 3 , 0-6 weight % MgO, 5-14 weight % CaO, 10-16 weight % Na 2 O, 0-2 weight % SO 3 , 0.005-4.0 weight % Fe 2 O 3  (total iron), and 0-5 weight % K 2 O. As used herein, the phrase “total iron” refers to the total weight of iron oxide (FeO+Fe 2 O 3 ) contained in the glass calculated as Fe 2 O 3 . The glass may also contain other additives, for example, refining agents, which would normally be present in an amount of up to 2%. In this embodiment, the first glass pane  16  may be provided as a portion of float glass ribbon. When the first glass pane  16  is formed as a portion of a float glass ribbon, the first glass pane  16  may be clear float glass. In some of these embodiments, clear float glass may mean a glass having a composition as defined in a related standard such as BS EN 572-1:2012+A1:2016 and BS EN 572-2:2012. However, the first glass pane  16  may be of another composition such as, for example, a borosilicate or an aluminosilicate composition. 
     The color of the first glass pane  16  can vary between embodiments of the laminated window assembly  10 . In some embodiments, the first glass pane  16  may be clear. In these embodiments, the first glass pane  16  may exhibit a total visible light transmittance of 88% or more when measured at a reference thickness of 2.1 mm in the CIELAB color scale system (Illuminant C, 10 degree observer). In one such embodiment, the inner pane of glass  16  has a low iron content, which allows for the high visible light transmittance. For example, the first pane of glass  16  may comprise 0.20 weight % Fe 2 O 3  (total iron) or less. More preferably, in this embodiment, the first pane of glass  16  comprises 0.1 weight % Fe 2 O 3  (total iron) or less, and, even more preferably, a 0.02 weight % Fe 2 O 3  (total iron) or less. In still other embodiments, the first glass pane  16  may be tinted or colored. 
     When the first glass pane  16  is tinted, the first glass pane  16  may comprise 0.1-4.0 weight % Fe 2 O 3  (total iron). Preferably, when the first glass pane  16  is tinted, the first glass pane  16  comprises 0.5-4.0 weight % Fe 2 O 3  (total iron). In some of these embodiments, the first glass pane  16  may comprise 0.05-1.6 by weight of ferrous oxide (calculated as FeO). Further, when the first glass pane  16  is tinted, the first glass pane  16  may comprise certain colorants. For example, the first glass pane  16  may comprise one or more of cobalt oxide (calculated as Co 3 O 4 ) in an amount up to 600 ppm by weight of glass, nickel oxide (calculated as NiO) in an amount up to 500 ppm by weight of glass, and selenium in an amount up to 50 ppm by weight of glass. In an embodiment, the first glass pane  16  comprises nickel oxide (calculated as NiO) of 100-500 ppm. When the first pane of glass  16  is tinted, it is preferred that the first pane of glass  16  is of, for example, a grey, grey-blue, green, blue-green, or bronze color. 
     When the first glass pane  16  is of a grey color, the first glass pane  16  may comprise 0.1-4.0 weight % Fe 2 O 3  (total iron). Preferably, when the first glass pane  16  is of a grey color, the first glass pane  16  comprises 1.2-3.0 weight % Fe 2 O 3  (total iron). Also, in these embodiments, the first glass pane  16  may have an a* value of −5±5, preferably −4±3, a b* value of 0±10, preferably 4±1 and an L* of 50±10, preferably 50±5 in the CIELAB color scale system. In these embodiments, the grey glass has a visible light transmission of 50% or less when the first glass pane  16  has a nominal thickness of 6 mm. Preferably, the grey glass has a visible light transmission of 7-11% when the first glass pane  16  has a nominal thickness of 6 mm. The grey glass pane may be sold under the trademark Galaxsee and manufactured by Pilkington. In other embodiments, the first glass pane  16  may be a grey glass having similar optical properties to Galaxsee by Pilkington or a grey glass having lower light transmission properties than Galaxsee by Pilkington at a nominal thickness. 
     When the first glass pane  16  is of a green color, the first glass pane  16  may comprise 0.2-2.0 weight % Fe 2 O 3  (total iron). In some embodiments, when the first glass pane  16  is of a green color, the first glass pane  16  comprises 0.3-1.2 weight % Fe 2 O 3  (total iron).

In these embodiments, the green glass has a visible light transmission of 50% or more when the first glass pane  16  has a nominal thickness of 6 mm. 
     A coating  20  is formed on the first glass pane  16 . In some embodiments, the coating  20  and the first glass pane  16  define a coated glass article  38 . Advantageously, the properties of the coated glass article  38  enable the laminated window assembly  10  to exhibit certain desired properties. 
     Preferably, the coating  20  is formed on a first major surface  22  of the first glass pane  16 . When the coating  20  is formed directly on the first glass pane  16 , there are no intervening coatings between the coating  20  and the first glass pane  16 .

In some embodiments, the coating  20  may consist of the four coating layers  26 - 32 . The coating  20  may be configured to reduce the visible light reflection exhibited by the first glass pane  16 . 
     In an embodiment, the coating  20  is pyrolytic. As used herein, the term “pyrolytic” may refer to the coating or a layer thereof being chemically bonded to the glass pane or another layer. The coating  20  and one or more of its layers  26 - 32  may be formed in conjunction with the manufacture of the first glass pane  16 . Preferably, in these embodiments, the first glass pane  16  is formed utilizing the well-known float glass manufacturing process. In embodiments where the first glass pane  16  is formed from a portion of a float glass ribbon, the coating  20  or one or more of its layers  26 - 32  may be formed in the heated zone of the float glass manufacturing process. 
     The coating layers  26 - 32  may be deposited by any suitable method. However, in some embodiments, at least one layer  26 - 32  is deposited by atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition (APCVD). In these embodiments, one or more layers  26 - 32  may be deposited by another known deposition method such as, for example, a sol-gel technique or a sputter technique. 
     The first layer  26  is deposited over the first glass pane  16 . More particularly, the first layer  26  is deposited over the first major surface  22  of the first glass pane  16 . In an embodiment, the first layer  26  is deposited directly on the first major surface  22  of the first glass pane  16 . When the first layer  26  is deposited directly on the first major surface  22  of the first glass pane  16 , there are no intervening layers between the first layer  26  and the first major surface  22  of the first glass pane  16 .

In some embodiments, the first layer  26  comprises tin oxide (SnO 2 ) or another transparent inorganic metal oxide. When the first layer  26  comprises tin oxide, it is preferred that the first layer  26  comprises tin and oxygen. However, in these embodiments, the first layer  26  may also comprise other constituents including a trace amount or more of other elements such as, for example, carbon. As used herein, the phrase “trace amount” is an amount of a constituent of a coating layer that is not always quantitatively determinable because of its minuteness. In some embodiments, the first layer  26  may consist essentially of, preferably consist of, tin oxide. 
     The first layer  26  has a thickness of 50 nanometers (nm) or less. Preferably, the thickness of the first layer  26  is 35 nm or less. In certain embodiments, the thickness of the first layer  26  is preferably 10-35 nm, more preferably 15-30 nm, even more preferably 20-30 nm. These preferred thicknesses assist in controlling the color of the laminated window assembly to an aesthetically acceptable degree. 
     The second layer  28  is deposited over, and preferably, directly on, the first layer  26 . Thus, the first layer  26  separates the second layer  28  from the first glass pane  16 . When the second layer  28  is deposited directly on the first layer  26 , there are no intervening layers between the first layer  26  and the second layer  28 .

In these embodiments, the second layer  28  comprises silicon and oxygen. The second layer  28  may also include a trace amount of one or more additional constituents such as, for example, carbon. Thus, in certain embodiments, the second layer  28  may consist essentially of, preferably consist of, silicon dioxide. However, other materials that exhibit a desirable refractive index may be suitable for use in the second layer  28 . 
     In certain embodiments, the first layer  26  and the second layer  28  form an iridescence-suppressing interlayer. In another embodiment (not depicted), the iridescence-suppressing interlayer may be formed from a single layer.

     The third layer  30  is deposited over, and preferably, directly on, the second layer  28 . Thus, the second layer  28  separates the third layer  30  from the first layer  26 . When the third layer  30  is deposited directly on the second layer  28 , there are no intervening layers between the third layer  30  and the second layer  28 . It is preferred that the third layer  30  is pyrolytic. 
     The third layer  30  has a refractive index that is greater than the refractive index of the second layer  28 . Also, in some embodiments, the third layer  30  has a refractive index that is greater than the refractive index of the fourth layer  32 . Preferably, the third layer  30  has a refractive index of 1.6 or more. In certain embodiments, the refractive index of the third layer  30  is 1.8 or more. In an embodiment, the refractive index of the third layer  30  is between 1.8 and 2.0. 
     It is preferred that, the third layer  30  comprises a transparent conductive metal oxide. In some embodiments, the third layer  24  comprises fluorine doped tin oxide (SnO 2 :F). In other embodiments, the third layer  24  may consist essentially of, preferably consist of, fluorine doped tin oxide. However, other transparent conductive metal oxide materials may be suitable for use in the third layer  30 . For example, in some embodiments, the third layer  30  may comprise antimony doped tin oxide (SnO 2 :Sb) or another doped tin oxide. In these embodiments, the third layer  30  may consist essentially of antimony doped tin oxide or another doped tin oxide. 
     In an embodiment, the third layer  30  has a thickness of 200-450 nm. Preferably the third layer  30  has a thickness of at least 250 nm, more preferably at least 290 nm, even more preferably at least 300 nm, but preferably at most 380 nm, more preferably at most 340 nm, even more preferably at most 330 nm. These preferred thicknesses help avoid the formation in the coating of aesthetically undesirable laminar flow stripes. 
     Due primarily to the composition of the first glass pane  16  and third layer  30 , the coated glass article  38  may exhibit an improved solar energy transmittance. Further, because of the composition and thickness of the third layer  30 , the coated glass article  38  may also exhibit a low emissivity. Thus, the third layer may also be referred to herein as a low emissivity layer. 
     The fourth layer  32  is deposited over, and preferably, directly on, the third layer  30 . When the fourth layer  32  is deposited directly on the third layer  30 , there are no intervening layers between the third layer  30  and the fourth layer  32 . In some embodiments, the fourth layer  32  may be the outermost layer of the coating  20 . When the fourth layer  32  is the outermost layer of the coating  20 , the fourth layer  32  may form an outer surface  34  of the coated glass article  38 .

     Preferably, the fourth layer  32  comprises a dielectric material. Preferred dielectric materials include oxides of silicon. In an embodiment, the fourth layer  32  comprises silicon dioxide (SiO 2 ) or another suitable oxide of silicon. The fourth layer  32  may also include a trace amount of one or more additional constituents such as, for example, carbon. Thus, in certain embodiments, the fourth layer  32  may consist essentially of, preferably consist of, silicon dioxide. However, in other embodiments, the fourth layer  32  may comprise an oxide of silicon and one or more additional materials, which are provided to increase the refractive index of the fourth layer  32  above 1.5. In one such embodiment, the fourth layer  32  may also comprise aluminum oxide (Al 2 O 3 ), titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ), zirconium oxide (ZrO 2 ), boron oxide (B 2 O 3 ), phosphorus oxide (P 2 O 5 ), or tin oxide.

These preferred thicknesses assist in ensuring that the laminated window assembly of the present invention exhibits very low total visible light reflectance e.g. less than 4.0% (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer). 
     In certain embodiments, the fourth layer  32  is pyrolytic. When the fourth layer  32  is pyrolytic, the fourth layer  32  may be deposited by an APCVD process. In other embodiments, the fourth layer  32  may not be pyrolytic. In these embodiments, the fourth layer  32  may be deposited utilizing a liquid which provides a layer of the sol-gel variety.

In other embodiments, the glass panes  16 ,  40  utilized in the laminated window assembly  10  may be curved by way of a shaping process. Additionally, the glass panes  16 ,  40  may be heat strengthened, thermally toughened, or chemically strengthened, which may occur before or after deposition of a coating  20 ,  20 A. 
     The laminated window assembly  10  also comprises a polymeric interlayer  48  provided between the first glass pane  16  and the second glass pane  40 . The polymeric interlayer  48  is not limited to a particular thickness. However, in certain embodiments, the polymeric interlayer  48  has a thickness of between 0.3 and 1.8 mm, preferably, between 0.5 and 1.6 mm. More preferably, the polymeric interlayer  48  has a thickness of between 0.6 and 0.9 mm. In one such embodiment, the thickness of the polymeric interlayer  48  is 0.76 mm. 
     The polymeric interlayer  48  may comprise a first major surface and a second major surface. In certain embodiments, the polymeric interlayer  48  is provided as a polymer sheet in a shape substantially matched to that of the glass panes  16 ,  40 . As illustrated, the first major surface and the second major surface of the polymeric interlayer  48  may be provided in a parallel relationship with each other. 
     In some embodiments, the polymeric interlayer  48  is clear and substantially transparent to visible light. In embodiments where the polymeric interlayer  48  is clear, it may be preferred that the first glass pane  16  is a grey glass and the second glass pane  40  is a grey glass. In other embodiments, the polymeric interlayer  48  can be tinted and/or comprise an infrared (IR) reflective film to provide additional solar control features. When the polymeric interlayer  48  comprises an IR reflective film, the film may include one or more layers and at least one layer may comprise silver or another material with similar infrared radiation reflectance properties. In an embodiment, the polymeric interlayer  48  may be sold under the trademark XIR and manufactured by the Eastman Chemical Company. 
     In embodiments where the polymeric interlayer  48  is tinted, the first glass pane  16  and the second glass pane  40  may each be a clear glass. When the polymeric interlayer  48  is tinted, it is preferred that the polymeric interlayer  48  exhibits a total visible light transmittance (Illuminant D65, 10 degree observer) of 35.0% or less. In some embodiments, the polymeric interlayer  48  exhibits a total visible light transmittance (Illuminant D65, 10 degree observer) of less than 10.0%. In other embodiments, the polymeric interlayer  48  exhibits a total visible light transmittance (Illuminant D65, 10 degree observer) of less than 5.0%. In these embodiments, the polymeric interlayer  48  may exhibit a total visible light transmittance (Illuminant D65, 10 degree observer) of 0.5-4.5%. 
     The polymeric interlayer  48  may also exhibit other advantageous properties when it is tinted. For example, the polymeric interlayer  48  may exhibit a neutral color for the visible light reflected from or transmitted through the interlayer  48 . In one such embodiment, the polymeric interlayer  48  exhibits an a* value (Illuminant D65, 10 degree observer) in a range from about −6 to 6 and a b* value (Illuminant D65, 10 degree observer) in the range from about −6 to 6. 
     Additionally, the polymeric interlayer  48  may exhibit a low total solar energy transmittance when it is tinted. As used in this paragraph, the total solar energy transmittance (TTS) may refer to the solar energy transmitted directly through the polymeric interlayer and the solar energy absorbed by the polymeric interlayer, and subsequently convected and thermally radiated inwardly integrated over the wavelength range 300 to 2500 nm according to the relative solar spectral distribution for air mass 1.5. The total solar transmittance may be determined according to a recognized standard such as ISO 13837:2008 convention A and at a wind speed of 14 kilometers per hour. In an embodiment, the polymeric interlayer  48  exhibits a total solar energy transmittance of 35.0 or less. Preferably, the total solar energy transmittance exhibited by the polymeric interlayer  48  is 30.0 or less. 
     In some embodiments, the polymeric interlayer  48  may exhibit a low transmitted energy (TE), which reduces the amount of heat transmitted through the assembly  10 . As used herein, transmitted energy or direct solar heat transmission (DSHT) is measured at Air Mass  2  (simulated rays from the sun incident at an angle of 30° to the horizontal) over the wavelength range 350 to 2100 nm at 50 nm intervals. In an embodiment, the polymeric interlayer  48  may exhibit a transmitted energy of 40% or less, when measured at Air Mass  2 , ISO 9050. 
     The polymeric interlayer  48  is of or includes a suitable polymer such as, for example, polyvinyl butyral (PVB) or another suitable material like PVC, EVA, EMA, and polyurethane. In an embodiment, the polymeric interlayer  48  is a sheet of Saflex® PVB which is manufactured and sold by the Eastman Chemical Company. 
     To form the laminated window assembly  10 , the first glass pane  16  and the second glass pane  40  are laminated to each other or are otherwise adhered together via the polymeric interlayer  48 . Lamination processes known in the art are suitable for forming the laminated window assembly  10 . Generally, such lamination processes will include inserting the polymeric interlayer  48  between the first glass pane  16  and the second glass pane  40  and subjecting the interlayer  48  and panes  16 ,  40  to a predetermined temperature and pressure to create the laminated window assembly  40 . 
     It is preferred that after lamination the laminated window assembly  10  has a thickness of 10 mm or less. In an embodiment, the laminated window assembly  10  has a thickness of 3-10 mm. More preferably, the thickness of the laminated window assembly  10  is 6 mm or less. Even more preferably, the thickness of the laminated window assembly  10  is 5 mm or less. In an embodiment, the laminated window assembly  10  has a thickness of 3-5 mm. However, the laminated window assembly  10  may be of other thicknesses. 
     Once formed, the laminated window assembly  10  exhibits a desirable total visible light transmittance and total visible light reflectance. For describing the laminated window assembly  10 , total visible light transmittance will refer to the percentage of visible light passing through the laminated window assembly  10  as measured from a first side  50  of the assembly  10  at a 90 degree angle incident to the laminated window assembly  10 . Also, for describing the laminated window assembly  10 , total visible light reflectance will refer to the percentage of visible light reflected from the laminated window assembly  10  as measured from the first side  50  of the assembly  10  at a 90 degree angle incident to the laminated window assembly  10 . Further, the total visible light transmittance and total visible light reflectance will be described herein according to the CIELAB color scale system using Illuminant A, 2 degree observer and can be measured using a commercially available spectrophotometer such as the Perkin Elmer Lambda 950. 
     In some embodiments, the laminated window assembly  10  exhibits a total visible light transmittance (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer) of more than 70.0%. In these embodiments, the laminated window assembly  10  may be a windshield, side window, or rear window of the vehicle. In other embodiments, the laminated window assembly  10  exhibits a total visible light transmittance (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer) of less than 70.0%. In certain embodiments, the laminated window assembly  10  exhibits a total visible light transmittance (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer) of less than 20.0%. In these embodiments, the laminated window assembly  10  may be a roof glazing, side window, or rear window of the vehicle. Preferably, in these embodiments, the total visible light transmittance (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer) is 10.0% or less. More preferably, the total visible light transmittance (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer) is 5.0% or less. In this embodiment, the total visible light transmittance (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer) may be 2.0-5.0%. Additionally, it is preferred that, in the embodiments described above, the laminated window assembly  10  exhibits a total visible light reflectance (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer) of 5.0% or less. In an embodiment, the total visible light reflectance (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer) is 1.0-5.0%. More preferably, the total visible light reflectance (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer) is 4.0% or less. In one such embodiment, the total visible light reflectance (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer) is 1.0-4.0%. Even more preferably, the total visible light reflectance (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer) is 3.0% or less. In one such embodiment, the total visible light reflectance (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer) is 1.0-3.0%. 
     The laminated window assembly  10  may also exhibit other properties that are advantageous. For example, the laminated window assembly  10  may exhibit a neutral color for the visible light reflected from the first side  50  of the assembly  10  when viewed at a 90 degree angle incident (normal incidence) to the laminated window assembly  10 . The color of the visible light reflected from the first side  50  of the laminated window assembly  10  may be referred to herein as “reflected color.” The reflected color will be described herein according to the CIELAB color scale system using Illuminant A, 2 degree observer. Reflected color can be measured using a commercially available spectrophotometer such as the Perkin Elmer Lambda 950. Also, for the purpose of describing the embodiments of the laminated window assembly  10  disclosed herein, a neutral color for the visible light reflected from the first side  50  of the laminated window assembly  10  has an a* value (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer) in the range of −6 to 6 and a b* value (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer) in the range of −6 to 6. In some embodiments, the laminated window assembly  10  exhibits a reflected color in a range from about −6 to 0 for the a* value (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer) and a range from about 0 to 6 for the b* value (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer). It should be appreciated that a negative a* value indicates a green color hue and a negative b* value indicates a blue color hue. Whereas, a positive a* value indicates a red color hue and a positive b* value indicates a yellow color hue. In these embodiments, the laminated window assembly  10  may exhibit a reflected color that is negative for the a* value (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer) and is positive for the b* value (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer). 
     The laminated window assembly  10  may also exhibit a reflected color at an oblique angle of incidence that is neutral. In fact, in some embodiments, the reflected color exhibited by the laminated window assembly  10  becomes more neutral as the angle of incidence changes from a normal angle to an oblique angle of incidence. In some embodiments, at an angle of incidence of 30 degrees, the laminated window assembly  10  may exhibit a reflected color in a range from about −6 to 6 for the a* value (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer) and a range from about −6 to 6 for the b* value (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer). In other embodiments, at an angle of incidence of 45 degrees, the laminated window assembly  10  may exhibit a reflected color in a range from about −6 to 3 for the a* value (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer) and a range from about −3 to 6 for the b* value (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer). In other embodiments, at an angle of incidence of 60 degrees, the laminated window assembly  10  may exhibit a reflected color in a range from about −3 to 3 for the a* value (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer) and a range from about −3 to 3 for the b* value (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer). 
     The laminated window assembly  10  may exhibit a low total solar energy transmittance. As used herein, total solar energy transmittance (TTS) may refer to the solar energy transmitted directly through the laminated window assembly and the solar energy absorbed by the laminated window assembly, and subsequently convected and thermally radiated inwardly integrated over the wavelength range 300 to 2500 nm according to the relative solar spectral distribution for air mass 1.5. The total solar transmittance may be determined according to a recognized standard such as ISO 13837:2008 convention A and at a wind speed of 14 kilometers per hour. 
     In an embodiment, the laminated window assembly  10  exhibits a total solar energy transmittance of 35.0% or less. Preferably, the total solar energy transmittance exhibited by the laminated window assembly  10  is 30.0% or less. More preferably, the total solar energy transmittance exhibited by the laminated window assembly  10  is 25.0% or less. In some embodiments, the total solar energy transmittance exhibited by the laminated window assembly  10  is 20.0-25.0%. Even more preferably, the total solar energy transmittance exhibited by the laminated window assembly  10  is 20.0% or less. In one such embodiment, the total solar energy transmittance exhibited by the laminated window assembly  10  is 15.0-20.0%. Thus, in the summer, if the laminated window assembly  10  is utilized as a window for a vehicle, the laminated window assembly  10  will help to prevent the passenger cabin from overheating. 
     Preferably, the laminated window assembly  10  exhibits a low transmitted energy. In an embodiment, the laminated window assembly  10  exhibits a transmitted energy of 30% or less, when measured at Air Mass  2 , ISO 9050. Preferably, the laminated window assembly  10  exhibit a transmitted energy of less than 20% and more preferably less than 10%. Even more preferably, the laminated window assembly  10  exhibits a transmitted energy of less than 5%. 
     Preferably, the laminated window assembly  10  exhibits a low emissivity. The emissivity of the laminated window assembly  10  can be measured using a commercially available spectrometer such as the Perkin Elmer FTIR. In some embodiments, the laminated window assembly  10  may exhibit an emissivity of less than 0.4. In an embodiment, the laminated window assembly  10  exhibits an emissivity of 0.05-0.4. Preferably, the laminated window assembly  10  exhibits an emissivity of less than 0.3. In an embodiment, the laminated window assembly  10  exhibits an emissivity of 0.05-0.3. More preferably, the laminated window assembly  10  exhibits an emissivity of less than 0.2. In an embodiment, the laminated window assembly  10  exhibits an emissivity of 0.05-0.2. When the laminated window assembly  10  exhibits an emissivity like those described above and is utilized as a window for a vehicle, the laminated window assembly  10  will provide a good insulating effect for the passenger cabin of the vehicle.

     In TABLE 1, the laminated window assemblies within the scope of the invention are Ex 1-Ex 6. Ex 1-Ex 6 are predictive. Each of the laminated window assemblies of Ex 1-Ex 6 comprised a first glass pane that was clear and of a soda-lime-silica composition. Each of the laminated window assemblies of Ex 1-Ex 6 also comprised a coating formed on a major surface of the first glass pane. Each coating comprised a first layer, second layer, third layer, and fourth layer. The first layer was on the glass pane and comprised tin oxide. The thickness of the first layer was 20 nm. The second layer was on the first layer and comprised silicon dioxide. The thickness of the second layer was 30 nm. The third layer was on the second layer and comprised fluorine doped tin oxide. The thickness of the third layer was 300 nm. The fourth layer was on the third layer and comprised silicon dioxide. The thickness of the fourth layer was 55 nm. Thus, the coated glass articles of Ex 1-Ex 6 were each of a glass/SnO 2 /SiO 2 /SnO 2 :F/SiO 2  arrangement. 
     The first glass pane was laminated to a second glass pane. For Ex 1-Ex 6, the second glass pane was clear and of a soda-lime-silica composition. For Ex 1-Ex 3, a coating was formed on a major surface of the second glass pane. Each coating comprised a first layer, second layer, and third layer. The first layer was on the glass pane and comprised tin oxide. The thickness of the first layer was 25 nm. The second layer was on the first layer and comprised silicon dioxide. The thickness of the second layer was 25 nm. The third layer was on the second layer and comprised fluorine doped tin oxide. The thickness of the third layer was 330 nm. Thus, for Ex 1-Ex 3, the laminated window assembly included a second coated glass article and each was of a glass/SnO 2 /SiO 2 /SnO 2 :F arrangement. 
     A polymeric interlayer was provided between the first glass pane and the second glass pane. The thickness of the polymeric interlayer was 0.76 mm. The polymeric interlayer comprised PVB and was tinted. For Ex 1 and Ex 4, the polymeric interlayer exhibited a total visible light transmittance (Illuminant D65, 10 degree observer) of 1.5%. For Ex 2 and Ex 5, the polymeric interlayer exhibited a total visible light transmittance (Illuminant D65, 10 degree observer) of 4.4%. For Ex 3 and Ex 6, the polymeric interlayer exhibited a total visible light transmittance (Illuminant D65, 10 degree observer) of 7.7%. 
     After lamination, the laminated window assemblies of Ex 1-Ex 3 were of the following arrangement: SiO 2 /SnO 2 :F/SiO 2 /SnO 2 /first glass pane/polymeric interlayer/SnO 2 :F/SiO 2 /SnO 2 /second glass pane. Also, after lamination, the laminated window assemblies of Ex 4-Ex 6 were of the following arrangement: SiO 2 /SnO 2 :F/SiO 2 /SnO 2 /first glass pane/polymeric interlayer/second glass pane.

For the laminated window assemblies of Ex 1-Ex 6, the total visible light transmittance, total visible light reflectance, reflected color, and total solar energy transmittance were calculated by modeling and according to the CIELAB color scale system using illuminant A, 2 degree observer. For the laminated window assemblies of Ex 1-Ex 6, the total visible light transmittance refers to the percentage of visible light passing through the laminated window assembly that would be measured from the side having the four layer coating or facing the fourth surface of the laminated window assembly. The total visible light reflectance refers to the percentage of visible light reflected from the laminated window assembly that would be measured from the side having the four layer coating. The total visible light reflectance and the total visible light transmittance are expressed as percentages. The reflected color is reported below at normal incidence (Rfa*, Rfb*), an angle of incidence of 30 degrees (Rfa*(30°), Rfb*(30°)), an angle of incidence of 45 degrees)(Rfa*(45°), Rfb*(45°), and an angle of incidence of 60 degrees (Rfa*(60°), Rfb*(60°)). Also, the reflected color is reported for the side of each laminated window assembly having the four layer coating. Also, the total solar energy transmittance reported below is expressed as a percentage.

     As shown in TABLE 1, the laminated window assemblies of Ex 1-Ex 6 each exhibit a total visible light transmittance (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer) of less than 10.0% and total visible light reflectance (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer) of less than 4.0%. Further, the laminated window assemblies of Ex 1-Ex 6 each exhibit a total solar energy transmittance of 15.0-25.0%. Also, the laminated window assemblies of Ex 1-Ex 6 each exhibit a neutral reflected color at a normal angle of incidence and at oblique angles of incidence. 
     In TABLE 2, the laminated window assemblies within the scope of the invention are Ex 7-Ex 10. Comparative examples, not considered to be a part of the invention, is also described below and illustrated in TABLE 2. In TABLE 2, the comparative examples are designated as C1 and C2, respectively. 
     Each of the laminated window assemblies of C1 and C2 comprised a first glass pane that was clear float glass of a soda-lime-silica composition. Each of the laminated window assemblies of C1 and C2 also comprised a coating formed on a major surface of the first glass pane. Each coating comprised a first layer, second layer, and third layer. The first layer was on the glass pane and comprised tin oxide. The second layer was on the first layer and comprised silicon dioxide. The third layer was on the second layer and comprised fluorine doped tin oxide. Thus, for C1 and C2, the laminated window assemblies included a first coated glass article that was of a glass/SnO 2 /SiO 2 /SnO 2 :F arrangement. The thicknesses of the first layer, second layer, and third layer were similar to the thicknesses reported for the coatings formed on the second glass panes of Ex 1-Ex 3. 
     The first glass pane was laminated to a second glass pane. For C1 and C2, the second glass pane was float glass of a soda-lime-silica composition. A coating was formed on a major surface of each second glass pane. Each coating was similar to the coating formed on the first glass pane of C1 and C2. Thus, for C1 and C2, the laminated window assembly included a second coated glass article that was of a glass/SnO 2 /SiO 2 /SnO 2 :F arrangement. 
     A polymeric interlayer was provided between the first glass pane and the second glass pane. The thickness of the polymeric interlayer was 0.76 mm. The polymeric interlayer comprised PVB. For C1, the polymeric interlayer exhibited a total visible light transmittance (Illuminant D65, 10 degree observer) of 8%. For C2, the polymeric interlayer exhibited a total visible light transmittance (Illuminant D65, 10 degree observer) of 2%. 
     After lamination, the laminated window assemblies of C1 and C2 were of the following arrangement: SnO 2 :F/SiO 2 /SnO 2 /first glass pane/polymeric interlayer/SnO 2 :F/SiO 2 /SnO 2 /second glass pane. 
     Each of the laminated window assemblies of Ex 7-Ex 10 comprised a first glass pane that was clear float glass of a soda-lime-silica composition. Each of the laminated window assemblies of Ex 7-Ex 10 also comprised a coating formed on a major surface of the first glass pane. Each coating comprised a first layer, second layer, third layer, and fourth layer. The first layer was on the glass pane and comprised tin oxide. The thickness of the first layer was 20 nm for Ex 7-9 and 26.4 nm for Ex 10. The second layer was on the first layer and comprised silicon dioxide. The thickness of the second layer was 30 nm for Ex 7-9 and 17.4 nm for Ex 10. The third layer was on the second layer and comprised fluorine doped tin oxide. The thickness of the third layer was 307 nm for Ex 7-9 and 303 nm for Ex 10. The fourth layer was on the third layer and comprised silicon dioxide. The thickness of the fourth layer was 55 nm for all of Ex 7-10. 
     Thus, the first coated glass articles of Ex 7-Ex 10 were each of a glass/SnO 2 /SiO 2 /SnO 2 :F/SiO 2  arrangement. 
     The first glass pane was laminated to a second glass pane. For Ex 7-Ex 10, the second glass pane was float glass of a soda-lime-silica composition. For Ex 7, the second glass pane was uncoated. For Ex 8-10, a coating was formed on a major surface of the second glass pane. 
     For Ex 8 and 10, the coating comprised a first layer, second layer, and third layer. The first layer was on the glass pane and comprised tin oxide. The second layer was on the first layer and comprised silicon dioxide. The third layer was on the second layer and comprised fluorine doped tin oxide. Thus, for Ex 8 and 10, the laminated window assembly included a second coated glass article that was of a glass/SnO 2 /SiO 2 /SnO 2 :F arrangement. The thicknesses of the first layer, second layer, and third layer were similar to (for Ex 8) and the same as (for Ex 10) the thicknesses reported for the coatings formed on the second glass panes of Ex 1-Ex 3. 
     For Ex 9, the coating formed on the second pane of glass was similar in layer arrangement, thickness, and composition to the coating formed on the first glass pane. Thus, for Ex 9, the laminated window assembly included a second coated glass article of a glass/SnO 2 /SiO 2 /SnO 2 :F/SiO 2  arrangement. 
     A polymeric interlayer was provided between the first glass pane and the second glass pane. The thickness of the polymeric interlayer was 0.76 mm. The polymeric interlayer comprised PVB. For Ex 7 and Ex 10, the polymeric interlayer exhibited a total visible light transmittance (Illuminant D65, 10 degree observer) of 4.4%. For Ex 8 and Ex 9, the polymeric interlayer exhibited a total visible light transmittance (Illuminant D65, 10 degree observer) of 8%. 
     After lamination, the laminated window assembly of Ex 7 was of the following arrangement: SiO 2 /SnO 2 :F/SiO 2 /SnO 2 /first glass pane/polymeric interlayer/second glass pane. After lamination, the laminated window assemblies of Ex 8 and Ex 10 were both of the following arrangement: SiO 2 /SnO 2 :F/SiO 2 /SnO 2 /first glass pane/polymeric interlayer/SnO 2 :F/SiO 2 /SnO 2 /second glass pane. After lamination, the laminated window assembly of Ex 9 was of the following arrangement: SiO 2 /SnO 2 :F/SiO 2 /SnO 2 /first glass pane/polymeric interlayer/SiO 2 /SnO 2 :F/SiO 2 /SnO 2 /second glass pane. 
     The total visible light transmittance (Tvis), total visible light reflectance (Rf), emissivity (ε), reflected color (Rfa*, Rfb*, Rfa*(30°), Rfb*(30°), Rfa*(45°), Rfb*(45°), Rfa*(60°), Rfb*(60°), and total solar energy transmittance (TTS) of the laminated window assemblies of Ex 7-Ex 10 and C1-C2 are reported in TABLE 1. For the laminated window assemblies of Ex 7-Ex 10 and C1-C2, the total visible light transmittance, total visible light reflectance, reflected color, and total solar energy transmittance were calculated by modeling and according to the CIELAB color scale system using illuminant A, 2 degree observer. For the laminated window assemblies of Ex 7-Ex 10 and C1-C2, the total visible light transmittance refers to the percentage of visible light passing through the laminated window assembly that would be measured from the side facing the fourth surface of the laminated window assembly. The total visible light reflectance refers to the percentage of visible light reflected from the laminated window assembly that would be measured from the side facing the fourth surface of the laminated window assembly. The total visible light reflectance and the total visible light transmittance are expressed as percentages. The emissivity was measured using a commercially available spectrometer such as the Perkin Elmer FTIR. The reflected color is reported below at normal incidence (Rfa*, Rfb*), an angle of incidence of 30 degrees)(Rfa*(30°), Rfb*(30°)), an angle of incidence of 45 degrees (Rfa*(45°), Rfb*(45°), and an angle of incidence of 60 degrees (Rfa*(60°), Rfb*(60°)). Also, the reflected color is reported for the side of each laminated window assembly having the four layer coating. Also, the total solar energy transmittance reported below is expressed as a percentage.

     As shown in TABLE 2, the laminated window assemblies of Ex 7-Ex 10 may each exhibit a total solar energy transmittance, emissivity, and total visible light transmittance that is similar to those exhibited by the coated glass articles of laminated window assemblies of C1 and C2. However, the laminated window assemblies of Ex 7-Ex 10 each exhibited a total visible light reflectance (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer) of less than 4.0%. In contrast, the laminated window assemblies of C1 and C2 each exhibited a total visible light reflectance (Illuminant A, 2 degree observer) of greater than 10.0%. Also, as illustrated by TABLE 2, as the angle of incidence changes from a normal angle to an oblique angle of incidence and increases, the reflected a* and b* values exhibited by the laminated window assemblies of Ex 7-Ex 9 become more neutral. Ex 10 is particularly advantageous because it ensures that as the angle of incidence changes from a normal angle to an oblique angle of incidence the reflected a* and b* values exhibited by the laminated window assembly remain in the same green/yellow color quadrant (negative a* and positive b*) according to the CIELAB color scale system. This is beneficial because a move to a different quadrant, especially a move from green to red, is very undesirable to observers. 
     It is also worth noting that the laminated window assemblies of Ex 1-Ex 10, unlike comparative examples, avoid the formation in the coating of aesthetically undesirable laminar flow stripes. 
     In accordance with the provisions of the patent statutes, the embodiments of the coated glass article have been described in what is considered to represent its preferred embodiments. However, it should be noted that the invention can be practiced otherwise than as specifically illustrated and described without departing from its spirit or scope.
