Abstract
Abstract An inexpensive laminated safety glass excelling in resistance to penetration as well as in its low temperature properties, which is hardly discolored with the passage of time, which comprises a laminated assembly of at least two sheets of glass between which is interposed a layer of a polyurethane elastomer, said sheets and said layer being firmly bonded together, said layer of polyurethane elastomer being obtained by curing, in the presence of curing agent, a polyurethane prepolymer having --NCO group at its both ends produced by reacting a diisocyanate with a polyester having --OH group at its both ends which has been obtained by reacting the dicarboxylic acids and their acid anhydrides with at least one kind of glycol, and the process for producing the same.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
100 words
A transparent laminated safety glass comprising a laminated assembly of two sheets of glass between which is sandwiched an interlayer of a polyurethane elastomer which bonds together said glass sheets, said interlayer having a thickness of between 0.2 and 5mm. and consisting essentially of a polymeric elastomeric polyurethane that is obtained by curing (a) an isocyanate terminated prepolymer, which is the reaction product of poly(ethylene propylene adipate) glycol having --OH groups at both ends and a molecular weight of about 2000 and toluene diisocyanate with (b) 4,4'-methylene-bis(2-chloroaniline) curing agent, the mole ratio of prepolymer to curing agent being from 4:3.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
100 words
A transparent laminated safety glass comprising a laminated assembly of two sheets of glass between which is sandwiched an interlayer of a polyurethane elastomer which bonds together said glass sheets, said interlayer having a thickness of between 0.2 and 5mm. and consisting essentially of a polymeric elastomeric polyurethane that is obtained by curing (a) an isocyanate terminated prepolymer, which is the reaction product of poly(ethylene propylene adipate) glycol having --OH groups at both ends and a molecular weight of about 2000 and toluene diisocyanate with (b) 4,4'-methylene-bis(2-chloroaniline) curing agent, the mole ratio of prepolymer to curing agent being from 4:3.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
21 words
The laminated safety glass of claim 1 wherein the prepolymer is cured by the combined use of 1,4-butane diol and 4,4'-methylene-bis(2-chloroaniline).
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
30 words
The laminated safety glass of claim 1 wherein at least one compound selected from the group consisting of ultraviolet light absorbents and antioxidants is incorporated with said polyurethane elastomeric interlayer.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
28 words
The laminated safety glass of claim 1 wherein the prepolymer is formed from between 1 and 2.5 moles of toluene diisocyanate per mole of poly(ethylene propylene adipate) glycol.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
28 words
The laminated safety glass of claim 1 wherein the prepolymer is cured by the combined use of 4,4'-methylene-bis(2-chloroaniline) and trimethylol propane, or 4,4'-methylene-bis(2-chloroaniline), trimethylol propane and 1,4-butane diol.
