Laminated glass is composed of two or more layers of glass bonded by a plastic interlayer, usually PVB (polyvinyl butyral) or SGP (ionoplast). Even if broken, the glass remains adhered to the interlayer.

Parameter class | Parameter Name | Standard Values | Description |
Thermal Performance | U-value (W/m²·K) | Standard Double Glazing: 2.8~3.2 Low-E Double Glazing: 1.6~2.0 Argon Filling: ↓0.1~0.3 | Lower values indicate better thermal insulation
|
SHGC (Solar Heat Gain Coefficient) | Clear Glass: 0.7~0.8 Low-E Glass: 0.25~0.40 | Lower values reduce solar heat gain
|
VLT (Visible Light Transmittance) | Clear Glass: 85%~90% Low-E Glass: 70%~80% Frosted Glass: 50%~60% | Affects indoor lighting brightness
|
VLR (Visible Light Reflectance) | Clear Glass: 8%~12% Low-E Glass: 15%~25% | Higher reflectance reduces glare
|
Acoustic Performance | Rw (Weighted Sound Reduction Index, dB) | 6mm Single Glass: 31 6+12+6 Double Glazing: 34 10+12+6 Double Glazing: 36 6+12+6.5 Laminated Glass: 38 | The higher the value, the stronger the sound insulation effect |
Structural Parameters | Glass Thickness Combinations (mm) | 4+4, 5+5, 6+6, 10+6, 6+6.5 (laminated) | Optimize sound insulation/load-bearing
|
Spacer Material | Aluminum (high thermal conductivity) TPS Thermoplastic (warm edge) Stainless Steel (corrosion-resistant) | Warm edge spacers ↓U-value by 0.1~0.2
|
Spacer Width (mm) | 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20 (2mm increments) | Wider spacers ↑ insulation but ↑ weight
|
Gas Filling | Air (standard) Argon (recommended, ↑U-value by 10%~15%) Krypton (premium, ↑U-value by 15%~20%) | Inert gases reduce thermal convection
|
Glass Types | Basic Types | Clear Float, Low-Iron, Tinted (Gray/Blue/Green), Frosted, Patterned | Light transmittance of low iron glass ↑5%~10% |
Functional Glass | Hard-coated Low-E (U-value 1.8~2.2) | Soft coating requires inner layer protection |
Soft-coated Low-E (U-value 1.6~1.8, requires inner protection) |
