How stable is laminated glass in different environments?

As a widely used glass product, the stability of laminated glass in different environments is crucial.
Laminated glass shows good stability in environments with large temperature changes. It can withstand a certain range of high and low temperatures without cracking or deformation. This is because the glue layer in the middle of laminated glass has good heat and cold resistance, which can buffer the stress caused by temperature changes on the glass. For example, in the hot summer, laminated glass exposed to the sun will not soften or deform due to high temperature; in the cold winter, it will not crack due to low temperature.
Laminated glass also has high stability in humid environments. Its good sealing performance can effectively prevent moisture from penetrating into the interior of the glass, thereby avoiding problems such as fogging and mold caused by water vapor entering the glass. Moreover, the edges of laminated glass are usually specially treated to enhance its waterproof performance, so that it can maintain good appearance and performance under humid climate conditions.
The stability of laminated glass is even more prominent in environments subject to external impact. When hit, the glue layer in the middle can absorb the impact energy, making the glass less likely to break. Even if the glass breaks, the fragments will be glued together by the glue layer and will not splash and hurt people, which greatly improves safety. For example, in application scenarios such as windows of some buildings and car windshields, laminated glass can effectively protect people's lives and property safety.
However, the stability of laminated glass is not absolute. If it is in a harsh environment for a long time, such as being corroded by strong acids and alkalis, and exposed to ultraviolet rays for a long time, its performance may also deteriorate. Therefore, when using laminated glass, it is necessary to make reasonable selections and maintenance according to specific environmental conditions to ensure its stability and service life.
In short, laminated glass has high stability in different environments, but it also needs to be used and maintained correctly to give full play to its advantages.
