Single laminated glass.

Laminated glass is often called safety glass because it meets the requirements of various code organizations. Laminated glass is a type of safety glass that holds together when shattered in the event of breaking it is held in place by an interlayer typically of polyvinyl butyral pvb ethylene vinyl acetate eva or thermoplastic polyurethane tpu between its two or more layers of glass. The glass and interlayers can be a variety of colors and thicknesses. Instead of the pvb interlayer acoustic glass contains a special resin as an interlayer in between two sheets of glass.

Most shower enclosures use tempered glass but more often than in the past laminated glass is being used in some shower enclosures because it doesn t shatter into the tiny pieces. Laminated glass is safety glass because if broken the glass stays bonded to the plastic sheet that is between two separate lites of glass. Laminated glass units also have more aesthetic possibilities than monolithic glass. In addition the low e coating and silk screen pattern if desired are applied to the exterior ply of glass leaving the interior ply available for additional treatment.

On the other hand laminated glass can block over 95 of the uv energy while allowing most of the visible light through. Laminated glass is produced when two or more glass lites are permanently bonded with one or more plastic interlayers pvb using heat and pressure. Single pane clear glass with a tdw of 0 84 allows most of the uv and visible energy to come through into the room offering very little protection.
