Laminated glass has significant advantages in terms of safety, which make it popular in a variety of applications.
First, the structural design of Laminated glass provides it with excellent impact resistance. It consists of one or more layers of PVB (polyvinyl butyral) or other similar special plastic films sandwiched between two or more layers of glass. When laminated glass is impacted by an external force, the PVB film can effectively absorb and disperse the impact force and prevent glass fragments from flying, thereby greatly reducing the risk of injury to humans and property.
Secondly, the safety performance of Laminated glass after being broken is also very good. Due to the bonding effect of the PVB film, even if the glass is broken, the fragments will be tightly adhered to the film to form a whole, preventing the fragments from scattering and splashing. This characteristic allows Laminated glass to maintain a certain degree of integrity and stability when damaged, providing valuable time for evacuation and rescue.
In addition, Laminated glass also has better anti-theft properties. Due to its special structure, when thieves try to break the window and enter the room, even if the outer glass is broken, it will be difficult to enter because of the obstruction of the inner glass and PVB film. This anti-theft feature provides an extra level of security in homes and commercial premises.
Laminated glass also shows excellent safety under extreme weather conditions, such as typhoons, earthquakes, etc. Due to its impact and earthquake resistance, Laminated glass can effectively withstand wind pressure and vibration, reducing the risk of window breakage, thus protecting the safety of buildings and people inside.
In general, Laminated glass has many advantages in terms of safety. Its impact resistance, safety performance after crushing, anti-theft performance and extreme weather resistance all provide people with more reliable and safe protection. Therefore, Laminated glass has become the preferred building material in places that require high security, such as banks, jewelry stores, high-rise buildings, etc.
