| The ability to predict interlayer and glass temperatures in the glass lamination process is the key factor for success.
| In this contribution, a long-lasting natural weather testing of several glass types, mostly LSG with different interlayer materials, and the effect of the different color patterns of paper and textile specimens are presented.
| This paper delves into the potential of two UV-curing acrylate adhesives, scrutinizing their material behavior through meticulous uniaxial tension tests and dynamic mechanical-thermal analysis.
| An equivalent temperature difference model for engineering glass design
| The use of laminated glass with PVB and ionoplast interlayers not only offers improved safety but can also be designed to help mitigate security threats ranging from basic safety to burglary and forced entry resistance and even ballistic protection.
| Application to cantilevered balustrades
| In this contribution, a long-lasting natural weather testing of several glass types, mostly LSG with different interlayer materials, and the effect of the different color patterns of paper and textile specimens are presented.
| In this contribution, PVB interlayers for highly effective and low-surface coverage bird-friendly laminated safety glass will be described.
| Comparisons with Prony series approach.
| In this paper, the Sandwich Theory of effective thickness is applied to the evaluation of multilaminate glass fin stability for in-plane flexure.
| Laminating glass together with a PVB or ionoplast interlayer can help mitigate security threats that range from smash and grab burglary, forced entry, ballistics, to even bomb blast.
| Glass is a brittle material. After the stress due to loading exceeds the resistance, a breakage occurs, and the glass is no longer intact.
| Multilayer laminates are used to increase strength, redundancy and residual capacity, but some configurations can lead to catastrophic failures.
| This paper presents a review on the state of art of analysis and design of glass window/facade system under blast loading, with evidence of available experimental outcomes, design methods and trends, open challenges.
| This study delves into the critical aspects of fire safety in laminated glass.
| A review of experimental research and main influencing parameters
| This study conducts a survey of the literature to identify and discuss various materials and design approaches incorporated to augment the sustainability of laminated glass.
| In this paper, the attention is given to a glass facade built in 1962 and currently subjected to accidental bird-strike.
| The research paper gives an idea and compares the structural behaviour and fracture pattern and evaluates laminated glass samples with PVB, Ionoplast and EVA interlayers.
| The latest Glastory blog presents how to overcome interlayer temperature hurdles in laminated glass processing with the prediction method. More of the presentation by Mikko Rantala at GPD 2023.
