Abstract

The invention relates to laminated glass comprising first ( 11 ) and second ( 12 ) sheets of glass laminated using at least one thermoplastic interlayer ( 20 ). According to the invention, such glass comprises at least one thermoplastic interlayer ( 20 ) including a zone that is opaque at visible wavelengths ( 21 ).

Claims (17)

1. A laminated glazing comprising:

a first glass sheet and a second glass sheet laminated by at least one thermoplastic interlayer; and

an enamel strip on an external face 4 of the second glass sheet,

wherein the at least one thermoplastic interlayer comprises a zone that is opaque to visible wavelength radiation.

2. The laminated glazing according to claim 1 , wherein the opaque zone extends over a periphery of at least one of the first and second glass sheets.

3. The laminated glazing according to claim 1 , wherein the opaque zone extends over a periphery of an internal face 2 of the first glass sheet.

4. The laminated glazing according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one thermoplastic interlayer is formed by an opaque zone, the light transmission of which is less than 5% of incident light.

5. The laminated glazing according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one thermoplastic interlayer is formed by an opaque zone, the light transmission of which is 0% of incident light.

6. The laminated glazing according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one thermoplastic interlayer is positioned substantially on a surface of the glazing.

7. The laminated glazing according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one thermoplastic interlayer is formed from an opaque frame positioned around a nonopaque zone.

8. The laminated glazing according to claim 1 , wherein the opaque zone extends over lower and upper edges of the laminated glazing.

9. The laminated glazing according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one thermoplastic interlayer is a sheet comprising polyvinyl butyral or ethylene-vinyl acetate.

10. The laminated glazing according to claim 1 , wherein the opaque zone is obtained by a bulk coloring of a periphery of the interlayer.

11. The laminated glazing according to claim 1 , wherein the enamel strip comprises dots.

12. The laminated glazing according to claim 11 , wherein the enamel strip overlaps the opaque zone over at least a portion.

13. The laminated glazing according to claim 11 , wherein the enamel strip overlaps the opaque zone over a distance of between 4 and 30 mm.
