Abstract
There is disclosed herein a method of making a glass substrate coated with an adherent, doped, tin oxide coating and article produced thereby. The glass substrate is heated to a spraying temperature which is sufficiently hot so that a heat decomposable, tin-containing material coming into the vicinity of the glass substrate will be heat decomposed permitting the tin contained in the tin-containing material to be oxidized and deposited as a doped tin oxide. The tin-containing material is applied in an oxygen ambient and is a material which contains both dibutyltin dibutoxide and trifluoroacetic acid. The preferred heating and application steps are undertaken under conditions that the spraying temperature and the ratio of milliliters of dibutyltin dibutoxide to milliliters of trifluoroacetic acid contained in the tin-containing material fall at some point located on or within the island area designated by the letter A in the map of these variables as set forth in FIG. 1 of the drawings.
