Vehicle glazing, which once served just to provide for vision and protect from the elements, has been taking on new functions as the complexity and functionality of modern automobiles has evolved. Performance films and interlayers are often used to add to and enhance the functionality of laminates. These functions include solar control, sound dampening, head up display and variable light transmittance. Recent advances have made it possible to produce electronic circuits on thin transparent substrates that are essentially invisible under normal lighting conditions. While these circuits can be inserted into the laminate and successfully laminated, the edges of the circuit insert are prone to objectionable aesthetics due to mismatch between the substrate and the interlayer index of refraction, thickness and color. The present invention compensates the edge of the solid insert by providing a sheet of a compatible compensation material that the substrate of the insert and which extends to at least the black band or the edge of glass of the laminate making the insert edge essentially invisible.

A tempered glass protective film for ultrasonic fingerprint recognition function is configured to solve the problem that the echo energy received by the ultrasonic fingerprint sensor is low and the clear fingerprint image cannot be obtained after the tempered glass protective film is used on the electronic device. The tempered glass protective film includes a glass layer, a first glue layer and a second glue layer arranged in a top-to-bottom sequence, in which the first glue layer is an OCA glue layer, and the second glue layer is a silicone layer or a PU glue layer. The thickness of the OCA glue layer gradually decreases from the edge to the center, and correspondingly, the thickness of the tempered glass protective film gradually decreases from the edge to the center. The tempered glass protective film has better impact resistance while improving the echo energy received by the ultrasonic fingerprint sensor.

A method for manufacturing a laminated glass whereby, in a laminated glass comprising a liquid crystal film sandwiched therein and having a three-dimensionally curved surface shape, the formation of wrinkles in the liquid crystal film can be suppressed; and a laminated glass which has a three-dimensionally curved surface shape and in which wrinkles in a liquid crystal film sandwiched therein are suppressed. The method for manufacturing the laminated glass comprises: a heat molding step for heating the liquid crystal film to a temperature higher than the glass transition point of the first base material layer and the second base material layer; and a bonding step for, after completing the heat molding step, heating the laminate, wherein the liquid crystal film is sandwiched between the first glass sheet and the second glass sheet, at a temperature lower than the glass transition point and bonding the same by applying a preset pressure.

An aeronautical glazing unit includes at least one sheet of modified acrylic, wherein the sheet is combined with at least one other sheet of modified acrylic, and/or at least one sheet of cast poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), and/or at least one sheet of another transparent polymer such as polycarbonate (PC), and/or at least one sheet of glass in particular that is chemically strengthened, as a laminated and/or multiple glazing unit.

Multilayer films including thin film coating structures are provided that generate colors through certain reflective mechanisms. Both opaque and transparent applications are demonstrated. A coating of a thin metal layer provides a reflective surface on which one or more colors are generated, where the metal layer can control a general level of transparency of the overall multilayer film. Inclusion of one or more dielectric layers, adjustment of thicknesses thereof, and the number and order in which such dielectric layers appear in the multilayer film can be tailored to generate unique colors with unique properties.

The present invention discloses a composite thermal insulator including a first transparent substrate layer, a second transparent substrate layer, and a near-infrared shielding layer positioned between the first transparent substrate layer and the second transparent substrate layer, and the near-infrared shielding layer is formed by dispersively fixing multiple nanoparticles containing tungsten oxide in polyethylene terephthalate. The composite thermal insulator can't change color under sunlight so that it can be used for light output controlling and thermal isolation.
