Laminated glass is a safety glass made by

laminating two or more sheets of equal or

unequal glass thicknesses with a flexible plastic

interlayer (called PVB – poly vinyl butyral).

The glass and interlayer are bonded together by

heat and pressure in an autoclave. Generally

this interlayer is 0.38mm thick for annealed

glass but other thicknesses are available.
