The present disclosure relates to a method for manufacturing curved laminated glass and curved laminated glass manufactured by the same. The method includes providing a curved thick plate glass; providing a thin plate glass whose thickness is smaller than that of the curved thick plate glass; stacking a support film comprising a ductile layer and an elastic layer on one surface of the thin plate glass; positioning a lamination film or a bonding agent between the other surface of the thin plate glass and a concave surface of the curved thick plate glass; and laminating the thin plate glass so as to be aligned with a concave surface of the curved thick plate glass by elastically deforming the thin plate glass provided with the support film.

A method according to this disclosure includes stacking a first glass sheet, a first interlayer, a film, a second interlayer, and a second glass sheet to provide a lamination stack, wherein the film has a first film edge that is a first distance from a first edge of the lamination stack to provide a first film cutback; deairing the lamination stack; and autoclaving the lamination stack to provide the laminated glazing, wherein the film shrinks during autoclaving wherein a seal formed during deairing is sufficient such that no air is introduced to the lamination stack during autoclaving and no air is left in the laminated glazing.

The present invention provides a display module and a full lamination method. The display module includes a cover plate, a glass substrate, a display panel, and an adhesive layer. The adhesive layer includes a main part and an extension part. The adhesive layer is extended beyond the glass substrate, and UV irradiation is performed on a lateral side of the display module to solidify the extension part, so that impurities such as ambient water/moisture are prevented from entering the inside of the display module. Two deaerating treatments are performed to effectively avoid occurrence of bubbles at a boundary between a visible region and a black matrix region.

A stack sequence of a substrate pane, at least one intermediate layer, and a cover pane is produced, a vacuum ring or a vacuum bag is placed around the stack sequence, the stack sequence is deaerated for a period of t8 min and at a temperature T from 0 C. to 30 C. by application of a negative pressure of p0.3 bar to the vacuum ring or the vacuum bag, the stack sequence is heated to a temperature T of 70 C. to 115 C., the stack sequence is deaerated for a period t of t8 min by application of a negative pressure of p0.3 bar to the vacuum ring or the vacuum bag, the stack sequence is cooled to a temperature T<70 C., the vacuum ring or the vacuum bag is aerated and removed, the stack sequence is heated to a temperature T from 40 C. to 120 C., the stack sequence is pressed together between at least two opposing calender rollers of a first calender unit over the entire width b of the stack sequence.

Methods for preparing multi-layer optical laminates include placing an optical film that is free form an adhesive layer between first and second glass substrates that are free of an adhesive layer, placing this laminate under vacuum, and then heating the laminate under pressure to a temperature above the softening temperature of the optical film. The glass substrates are free of an adhesive layer but may include a silane surface treatment. The resulting multi-layer laminate is optically clear and does not show scattering of reflected light by the optical film.
