The invention concerns a glazing comprising a first glass sheet having a surface; a printed layer on a part of the surface of the first glass sheet; a conductive coating on a part of the printed layer forming a coated print portion and on a part of the surface of the first glass sheet forming a coated glass portion; first and second busbars in electrical contact with the conductive coating and comprising a first or second busbar portion arranged on a different axis therefrom; a first printed layer portion adjacent the first or second busbar portion forming an adjustable coated print portion between the first and second busbars.

A vehicle laminated glazing includes a first extraclear glass sheet, a lamination interlayer and a second glass or plastic sheet with a traversing hole in the lamination interlayer and the second glass or plastic sheet.

A vehicle or other system may have windows. The windows may be formed by laminating together molded sheets of polished float glass. Sheets of float glass may be polished on one side, leaving an opposing side unpolished. Following polishing, the sheets may be placed in a molding tool. The molding tool may mold the polished sheets into a desired shape such as a shape characterized by curved surfaces. The curved surfaces may include surfaces of compound curvature. Lamination equipment may use polymer to laminate first and second molded sheets of polished glass together with their polished sides facing outwardly away from each other. Light modulators and/or other electrically adjustable layers may be incorporated into the windows.

The present application discloses interlayers comprising novel polyesteramides comprising diols with tunable properties based on the monomers and monomer ratios used to prepare the polyesteramides and varying the reaction conditions. The interlayers have improved properties and can be used in many different applications.

The present invention relates to a method capable of easily manufacturing a curved thin glass sheet and a curved joined glass sheet to which functionality is added.

An electro-optic window includes a first substrate; an electro-optic element generally parallel to the first substrate, the electro-optic element including: a second substrate; a third substrate generally parallel to the second substrate; a sealing member disposed along at least a portion of a perimeter of one of the second and third substrates and extending therebetween; and a cavity defined between the second and third substrates. The sealing member defines the sidewalls of the cavity. A first layer of film having a perimeter portion and a central portion is disposed between at least a portion of the first and second substrates, and may be coextensive with the sealing member.

A connection assembly includes a composite pane composed of a first pane and a second pane, which are connected to an intermediate layer, and an electro-optical functional element having an active layer arranged between two surface electrodes, which electro-optical functional element is arranged between the first pane and the second pane, wherein in each case a single flexible bus bar in the form of a strip is applied on the two surface electrodes, wherein the bus bar is folded over and routed out of the composite pane.

A HUD system including a light source projecting p-polarized light towards a glazing, the glazing includes an outer sheet of glass having a first surface and a second surface, and an inner sheet of glass having a first surface and a second surface, and the second surface of the inner sheet of glass has a first coating, where both sheets are bonded by at least one sheet of interlayer material, and the first coating includes at least one high refractive index layer having a thickness from 50 to 100 nm, and at least one low refractive index layer having a thickness from 70 to 160 nm, and the least one high refractive index layer has at least one of an oxide of Zr, Nb, Sn; a mixed oxide of Ti, Zr, Nb, Si, Sb, Sn, Zn, In; a nitride of Si, Zr; or a mixed nitride of Si, Zr.

A laminated pane, includes an outer pane, an inner pane, and at least two intermediate layers, wherein at least two separate functional elements with electrically controllable optical properties are arranged in a plane between the two intermediate layers, wherein on two opposite sides of each functional element, an inner bus bar is connected in each case to the respective functional element and at least one of the two opposite sides of each functional element is sealed by two PET barrier films, which are partly arranged between an intermediate layer and the functional element, wherein attached on one of the PET barrier films is at least one outer bus bar that is connected via an electrically conducting connection to the inner bus bar of a functional element, in order to electrically control the functional element separately from the other functional element or elements.

A vehicle laminated glazing includes a first extraclear glass sheet (exterior glazing), a lamination interlayer and a second glass or plastic sheet (interior glazing) with a traversing hole.
