As a kind of safety glass, laminated glass will not produce sharp fragments like ordinary glass after it is broken due to the bonding effect of the PVB film sandwiched between two pieces of ordinary glass.
This effectively prevents the occurrence of debris punctures and penetrating falling events, ensuring personal safety.
In the field of building doors and windows, in addition to providing safety, laminated glass has three major advantages:
Excellent sound insulation performance
Generally, the middle layer material of architectural laminated glass adopts PVB interlayer, and the PVB film has the damping function of filtering sound waves (reducing the volume transmission by reducing the vibration amplitude of the sound). Therefore, if you live in a place with serious road noise, it is right to choose a piece of laminated glass with a PVB film thickness of 1.14 mm.
Natural UV protection
PVB interlayer also has the function of filtering ultraviolet rays. According to data, PVB film can absorb more than 99% of ultraviolet rays, thereby protecting indoor furniture, plastic products, textiles, carpets, artworks, and fading and aging from ultraviolet radiation.
Good energy saving performance
Because the laminated glass made of PVB film can effectively reduce sunlight transmission, the darker the color and the lower the light transmittance, the stronger the ability of the laminated glass to block heat. Therefore, if there is enough light in the home, you might as well choose laminated glass with medium light transmittance (50% to 70%).
