Laminated glass is a type of safety glass that is made by bonding two or more layers of glass together with a layer of plastic interlayer in between. The plastic interlayer is typically made of polyvinyl butyral (PVB) or ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA), and serves to hold the glass layers together in the event of breakage.
Laminated glass is often used in applications where safety and security are a concern, such as in automobile windshields, skylights, and buildings in areas prone to hurricanes or earthquakes. In the event of breakage, the plastic interlayer helps to hold the glass fragments together, reducing the risk of injury from flying glass shards.
