  • Publication number: 20240181752
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an automotive curved laminated glazing (1) comprising (i) a first glass sheet (11) having an outer (P1) and an inner (P2) faces, (ii) an electrically powered functional film (13), (iii) a second glass sheet (12) having an outer (P3) and an inner (P4) faces. (iv) at least one optical coupling material (14) being a layer of polymer that is polymerized or cured from a liquid resin and provided between the said functional film and the at least first (11) and/or the second (12) glass sheets. According to the present invention, the curved laminated glazing has at least 50% of the total surface area of the outer face (P1) of the first glass sheet (11) and the inner face (P4) of the second glass sheet (12), having a minimum radius of curvature (R min) comprised between 75-8500 mm.

  • Publication number: 20230065516
    Abstract: A method for busbar hiding of a heated coating laminated glazing formed by a first glass sheet and a second glass sheet, each having an outer and an inner face. The method also includes performing enamel printing on an inner face of the first glass sheet and/or the second glass sheet, where the enamel forms a pattern. The enamel is fired and the pattern is covered at least in part by a coating, where the coating extends to at least an area of the enamel for applying busbars. At least two silver busbars are applied in the area on top of the extended coating. A thermal treatment is applied on the first and second glass sheets, where the first and second glass sheets are laminated and the coating is provided between the first and second glass sheets.

  • Patent number: 11214130
    Abstract: The invention relates to a laminated glass panel for an automobile, having a curved shape resulting from the assembly of a first glass sheet, which is curved before said assembly, with an intermediate thermoplastic sheet and a second glass sheet, the thickness of which does not exceed one third of that of the first sheet, the second glass sheet not being curved, or having a curvature that is substantially smaller than that of the first sheet before the assembly thereof with the latter and the intermediate thermoplastic sheet.
