Topic Terms: Interlayers and films

Interlayer films

Argotec Edge Seal and Edge Seal Plus Films are designed to protect laminated glass composites, regardless of the interlayer type. These proprietary films provide additional security and durability to finished glass lamination applications. Meant for architectural glazing and transportation glazing, they dramatically enhance moisture and solvent resistance, have an aesthetically pleasing appearance, reduced interlayer and laminate degradation and reduced edge chipping during handling and installation.

Their design keeps moisture and harmful chemicals out of laminated glass composites. A thin layer of black polyurethane cushions the edge of the glass composite and accepts the embossed pattern of the carrier through the autoclaving process, this layer can be removed following lamination. Clear, diamond pattern embossed carrier, may also be removed following lamination. A thick adhesive layer of clear TPU bonds Edge Seal to the glass laminate. EdgeSeal Plus has a proprietary foil layer between two sheets of tough, chemical-resistant polyurethane.

Satinal

Satinal launched Strato Rigido, its first structural laminating interlayer. The product is compliant with EN 16613 certification, and its certified structural characteristics make it suitable to withstand large loadings without losing its rigidity. Strato Rigido provides maximum protection against strong impacts: the breakage of the glass component does not affect the whole laminated structure. This interlayer also provides other properties, such as color, transparency, UV protection, sound insulation, solar control and bird safety.

Color interlayers

Satinal released Strato Colour, color interlayers for glass lamination. The interlayers are available in four colors: Comfort Bronze, Sky Gray, Local Light Blue and Nature Green. The line shares features from the company’s Strato Clear range, including anti-burglary, adhesion to glass, acoustic insulation and UV-resistance properties, the last of which shields up to 99 percent of UV rays. Due to the quality of Satinal’s EVA film, the colors have durability over time, say officials.
