A composite pane with at least one functional element, includes a first pane including an inner side III and an outer side IV, a second pane including an inner side II and an outer side I, a thermoplastic intermediate layer that joins the inner side III of the first pane laminarly to the inner side II of the second pane, at least one functional element that is incorporated into the thermoplastic intermediate layer, wherein the at least one functional element is directly adjacent the inner side III of the first pane and/or the inner side II of the second pane, and a deaeration structure is mounted at least in the region of the functional element that is directly adjacent the first pane and/or second pane.

A laminated glazing includes a first substrate having an outer face and an inner face, one or more interlayers disposed on the inner face of the first substrate, a second substrate disposed on the interlayer and at least one data transponder device. The date transponder device includes an antenna and an integrated circuit that is provided between the first substrate and the second substrate Optionally, one or more heating elements is/are provided between the first substrate and the second substrate and spaced around the data transponder device at a pre-defined distance for rapidly heating the antenna the data transponder.

The use of camera based safety systems is growing at a rapid rate in modern automobiles. As the industry moves for full autonomous capability, the number of cameras required is increasing. At the same time, windshields, where many of the cameras are mounted are becoming larger and more complex in shape. This presents problems in the area of camera optics. For one, the camera is looking out through at least two layers of bent glass bonded together by a third layer of plastic. Mismatches in the refractive index can result in a double image. The curvature of the glass turns the window into a lens and, in conjunction with the often low installation angle, can reduce the optical clarity of the camera field of view. The laminate of the invention has a cutout in the area of the camera(s) on the interior glass layer where the cameras are mounted.

The present invention provides an automobile window glass on which a device that acquires electromagnetic waves is disposable. The automobile window glass includes an outer glass plate, an inner glass plate, an intermediate film disposed between the outer glass plate and the inner glass plate, and a blocking layer that is disposed on at least one of a surface on the vehicle interior side of the outer glass plate and a surface on the vehicle interior side of the inner glass plate. The intermediate film includes a functional layer having a transmission region that allows transmission so as not to affect reception of the electromagnetic waves, and an adhesion layer that is disposed on at least one surface of the functional layer and does not affect reception of the electromagnetic waves. The blocking layer has at least one opening at a position corresponding to the transmission region.

A laminated glass, a method for producing a laminated glass, and a reflective film that has end parts where the generation of wrinkles is prevented in a case where the laminated glass is produced by sandwiching the reflective film between two glass plates and that has a reflection wavelength range with a small variation are provided. The reflective film has wavelength-selective reflectivity. A thermal shrinkage rate in a case where the reflective film is held at 140° C. for 30 minutes is greater than 0.5% and smaller than 2.0%. The reflective film has at least one cutout portion on a side edge of the reflective film.

A privacy glazing structure may include an electrically controllable optically active material that provides controlled transition between a privacy or scattering state and a visible or transmittance state. To make electrical connections with electrode layers that control the optically active material, the privacy glazing structure may include electrode engagement regions. In some examples, the electrode engagement regions are formed as notches in peripheral edges of opposed panes bounding the optically active material. The notches may or may not overlap to provide a through conduit in the region of overlap for wiring. In either case, the notches may allow the remainder of the structure to have a flush edge surface for ease of downstream processing.
