Thermal Laminated Glass

Thicker glasses are less tolerant.

Thermal laminated glass.

Toughened glass is very resilient and not prone to failing due to thermal stress. Regular glass doesn t combust at all but may quickly break due to thermal expansion and let air in to feed a fire. The edge quality of the glass can play a part. As a result of this thermal treatment the glass becomes stronger not harder as you may think when you hear its name.

For our highest level of safety and security consider thermalsafe laminated glass. Laminated glass consists of two or more lites bonded together using one or more plastic interlayers using heat and pressure. Laminated glass is made by pasting pvb polyvinyl butyral resin glue film between two or more pieces of glass sheet then heating pressing and bonding them together to create flat or curved compound glass product. The most widely used glazing configurations for sound dampening include laminated glass with varied thickness of the interlayer and thickness of the glass.

Glass with damaged edges will take less stress than clean cut glass. In some applications number two surface is the best location for the coating in other applications number. As such laminated glass isn t particularly suited to fire resistance. Including a structural thermally improved aluminum thermal barrier air spacer in the insulating glass can improve acoustical performance by reducing the transmission of exterior noise sources in the fenestration system.

When thermalsafe is combined with ts28 or cs36 low e glass the result is energy efficiency and protection from flying debris accidental breakage and intrusion. Thermal insulated glass products. Not only standard glass but also insulating glass or laminated safety glass can be treated thermally. We can produce a variety of standard and heated double glazed products as well as cater for the individual s requirements and applications.

Depending on the process the finishing process of standard glass results in two thermal glass variants. It consists of two layers of annealed glass with a layer of polyvinyl butyral pvb sandwiched in between. Laminated glass has the disadvantage of being combustible due to the thin layer of plastic at its core. But if you have open spaces around your windows where a draft enters you have an opening for sound as well.

Laminated glass and annealed glass behave in a similar way. We are proud to produce a revolutionary australian product. The glass and interlayers can be supplied in a variety of colours performance characteristics and thicknesses to provide the desired appearance and final performance in order to meet the relevant building code standards and requirements. The glass sheet for making laminated glass can be ordinary glass float glass tempered glass colored glass heat.
