A laminated glazing includes a structural transparent substrate bonded to a glass sheet of 0.5 to 4 mm, intended to constitute an outer surface of the laminated glazing, by an adhesive interlayer of 4 to 10 mm, which successively includes 0.25 to 2.5 mm of a flexible first polymer material having a relaxation modulus at most equal to 2 GPa for relaxation times at least equal to 10 min, at temperatures at least equal to −40° C., in contact with the glass sheet, then a stiff second polymer material having a relaxation modulus at least equal to 4 GPa, for time constants at most equal to 0.1 millisecond and temperatures at most equal to 40° C.

The present invention relates to a window pane and to a corresponding production method. The window pane (1) for a motor vehicle of the invention has a first pane and a second pane arranged parallel to the first pane, at least one intermediate adhesive layer (4) arranged between the first and second panes for forming a laminate therewith, wherein the intermediate adhesive layer (4) comprises at least one layer opening (7) or recess which is surrounded by an inside opening wall (4.1) of the intermediate adhesive layer (4), and a reinforcing adhesive material (8) provided in the layer opening (7) of the intermediate adhesive layer (4) which shows a higher strength or hardness than the intermediate adhesive layer wherein the reinforcing adhesive material is coplanar to the intermediate adhesive layer.

A laminated glazing comprising first and second sheets of glass joined together by an interlayer structure comprising at least first and second layers of adhesive interlayer material with a support sheet therebetween is disclosed. The laminated glazing is arranged such that the first layer of adhesive interlayer material is between the first sheet of glass and the support sheet, the second layer of adhesive interlayer material is between the second sheet of glass and the support sheet support material and at least a portion of the second major surface of the first sheet of glazing material faces the first major surface of the second sheet of glazing material. In the event of breakage of the first sheet of glass, the second layer of adhesive interlayer material remains attached to the support sheet thereby keeping the second glass sheet from becoming detached from the laminated glazing.

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.

Compositions, laminates, films and/or composites made from thermoplastic polymers, such as thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) are described. The films have one or more optical layers made from materials that allow the transmission of visible light and reflect or absorb UV light. An optical film is made from one or more TPU resins including a first UV absorber of the benzotriazole family or the triazin family, a light stabilizer, and a second UV absorber selected from a group consisting of benzotriazoles, benzophenones, triazin or benzylidene malonate. The second UV absorber may be present in a base resin combined with the TPU resin. The optical film is capable of blocking at least 99% of light having a wavelength

A laminated glazing with at least one step-shaped functional portion comprising two stack of components, the main stack of components in which the alteration of its properties is not desirable, and a second stack of components comprising a functional layer.

A glass structure for a vehicle includes an outer layer of glass, an inner layer of glass, and an interlayer stack disposed between opposing surfaces of the outer layer of glass and the inner layer of glass. The interlayer stack includes at least two interlayer substrates and at least one of the interlayer substrates includes a decorative treatment. In another example, the interlayer stack includes at least two interlayer substrates and at least one of the interlayer substrates includes a functional component.

A bonding laminated film for bonding, and a light transmission laminate are provided. The bonding laminating film and the light transmission laminate comprise a first layer comprising a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, and a second layer disposed inside the first layer and comprising a wedge part whose cross section is triangular or trapezoidal in a part or a whole of the second layer. The refractive index of the second layer is higher than the refractive index of the first layer. The bonding laminated film has an overall even thickness, and has anti-double-image elements in a desired area though a bonding laminated film, and has a substantially non-wedge shape.
