A laminated glass comprises first and second glass sheets and a ply of interlayer material disposed therebetween, a conductive strip disposed on the ply of interlayer material, a connector arranged at an edge of the second glass sheet, a ceramic ink layer on a surface of the second glass sheet not facing the ply of interlayer material and partly obscuring the conductive strip, a gap in the ceramic ink layer configured so that the conductive strip is in contact with the connector in the gap. Also, there is a method for manufacturing the laminated glass and use of the laminated glazing.

Disclosed herein is a laminated glazing having an electrically connectable layer, comprising: first and second glass substrates; an electrically connectable layer; interlayers rendering the electrically connectable layer positioned between interlayers; and a connection wire having first and second connection ends and a main portion positioned between the first and second connection ends. The first connection end of the connection wire is electrically connected to the electrically connectable layer, whereas the main portion of the connection wire is positioned within the interlayers.

A laminated glass according to the present invention includes: a first glass plate having a rectangular shape, and including a first side and a second side opposing the first side; a second glass plate arranged opposing the first glass plate, and having substantially the same shape as the shape of the first glass plate; an intermediate film arranged between the first glass plate and the second glass plate; a first bus bar extending along an end portion closer to the first side; a second bus bar extending along an end portion closer to the second side; and a plurality of heating lines extending so as to connect the first bus bar and the second bus bar to each other, wherein at least some of the plurality of heating lines are heating lines having different lengths.

A glass plate module according to the present invention is a glass plate module to which a wire for supplying electric power is capable of being joined and includes a glass plate, a heating wire disposed on the glass plate, and an electricity supply portion that is disposed on the glass plate and supplies electric power to the heating wire. The electricity supply portion is formed using conductive print that contains, as a main component, metal microparticles whose thermal expansion coefficient is larger than that of the glass plate, and the electricity supply portion is thinner than the heating wire.

The present invention concerns a laminated glass, comprising first and second glass sheets and a ply of interlayer material therebetween; a heating element arranged on a surface of the second glass sheet adjacent the ply of interlayer material; a circumference of the heating element spaced from an edge of the second glass sheet forming a circumferential region between the circumference and the edge of the second glass sheet where conductive material of the heating element has been at least partly removed; a conductive ring configured in the circumferential region spaced from the circumference and spaced from the edge of the second glass sheet and electrically isolated from the heating element wherein conductive materials of the heating element and the conductive ring are different.

A polyvinyl acetal resin film, having an average surface roughness Rz of at least one surface of 3.0 μm or less; a birefringence Δn of 3.0×10.sup.−4 or less; and an average thickness of 200 μm or less.

A glazing includes at least one glass sheet provided on one of the faces with an electrical network having resistance strips and collector strips, in which at least one portion of one face includes at least one strip obtained from an electrically conductive composition including a silver paste, the strip being in contact with another strip obtained from an electrically conductive composition including a copper paste, the other strip obtained from an electrically conductive composition including a copper paste being completely covered with a protective enamel layer.

An anti-fog glass includes a glass body configured as a single layer or a multilayer stack; an active anti-fog layer disposed on the glass body and heating up when being provided with power; and a passive anti-fog layer disposed on the glass body and inhibiting fog from forming on the passive anti-fog layer. The passive anti-fog layer is a super hydrophobic coating and/or hydrophilic coating. Both the active anti-fog layer and the passive anti-fog layer are simultaneously disposed on the glass body to inhibit fog from forming. In this way, in a region of the glass body not covered by the active anti-fog layer, the anti-fog function is achieved by the passive anti-fog layer to a certain degree; in addition, in a region where the passive anti-fog layer itself cannot provide a desired anti-fog level, the active anti-fog layer together with the passive anti-fog layer provide a better anti-fog effect.

Cracking of a laminated glass assembly having a device encapsulated therein during the manufacturing process is prevented. The laminated glass assembly includes a first and a second glass sheet; a first, a second and a third intermediate film interposed between the first and second glass sheets, in that order; an organic EL panel interposed between the first and second intermediate films and provided with a terminal member; and a first wiring member consisting of a metallic thin strip connected to the terminal member in a thickness-wise direction via a first solder; wherein at least one of the two glass sheets has a thickness of 1.0 mm to 1.6 mm; and at a connecting portion of the terminal member, the first solder and the first wiring member, the first wiring member has a thickness of 0.05 mm to 0.10 mm and a width of 3 mm to 15 mm, and the first solder has a thickness of 0.01 mm to 0.20 mm; and a total thickness of the terminal member, the first solder and the first wiring member is 0.16 mm to 0.40 mm.

An electrochromic device can include a substrate, a transparent conductive oxide layer over the substrate, and a bus bar over the substrate. The bus bar can include silver and has a resistivity of at most 6.7×10.sup.−6 Ω*cm, an average adhesion strength to SiO.sub.2 of at least 3N based on 20 measurements, as determined by Method A of ASTM B905-00 (Reapproved 2010), or a classification of at least 4, as determined by Method B of ASTM B905-00 (Reapproved 2010). In another aspect a process of forming an electrochromic device can include forming a transparent conductive oxide layer over a substrate; forming a bus bar precursor over the substrate, wherein the precursor includes silver; and firing the precursor to form a bus bar. Firing can be performed such that the first bus bar is at a temperature of at least 390° C.
