Abstract
An object of the invention is to provide a coated article having a protective member which is improved in light transparency, heat resistance, and weather resistance, and easy to manufacture, as typified by a solar battery module which experience no deterioration of performance during long-term outdoor installation; and to provide a coated article capable of protecting a functional film or device from water vapor and gases for dramatically improve the life of the functional film or device. These objects are achieved by a coated article having as a protective member a silica coating which is obtained by applying a polysilazane-containing coating solution on at least one surface of a resinous substrate having light transparency and heat resistance under atmospheric pressure, followed by steam oxidation and heat treatment.
