Home / News / Industry News / Is the middle layer material of Laminated glass safe and non-toxic?
Yes, the middle layer material used in laminated glass is typically safe and non-toxic. The most commonly used interlayer materials for laminated glass are Polyvinyl Butyral (PVB), Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate (EVA), and SentryGlas® (SGP). These materials are specifically chosen for their safety and non-toxic properties, making laminated glass a safe choice for various applications.
Here are some details about each interlayer material:
1. Polyvinyl Butyral (PVB):
- PVB is a widely used interlayer material in laminated glass. It is known for its excellent optical clarity, adhesion properties, and impact resistance.
- PVB is considered safe and non-toxic for most applications, including those in contact with food and beverages.
- It has been used in the automotive industry for decades, where safety standards are stringent.
2. Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate (EVA):
- EVA is another interlayer material used in laminated glass, especially in architectural and decorative applications.
- EVA is considered safe and non-toxic, and it is often used in industries where environmental and health safety are critical.
3. SentryGlas® (SGP):
- SentryGlas® is a premium interlayer material that offers exceptional strength and durability. It is used in applications requiring enhanced safety and security.
- SentryGlas® is engineered to be safe and non-toxic, meeting industry standards for safety and environmental requirements.
When properly produced and installed, laminated glass is a safe and reliable choice for various applications, including windows, doors, glass facades, skylights, and safety glass applications.
