Definitions
- the invention relates to a laminated pane with a functional film embedded therein, a method for its production and its use.
- Laminated panes are particularly common in the automotive sector as so-called laminated safety glass, in particular as a windshield, but increasingly also as a roof pane, side pane or rear pane.
- a composite pane has an outer pane and an inner pane which are connected to one another via a thermoplastic intermediate layer.
- the intermediate layer is typically formed from at least one connecting film, usually a PVB film.
- composite panes can be provided with additional advantageous properties by means of functional films.
- the functional films are typically based on PET or contain at least layers of PET. Since PET itself has no adhesive effect on the glass panes, it is inserted between two connecting films of the intermediate layer in order to embed the functional film in the composite pane.
- Functional films are common, for example, which comprise a PET carrier film and an electrically conductive coating applied thereto, typically containing at least one silver layer.
- Such functional foils provide the composite pane with an IR-reflecting effect, so that the heat input into the vehicle is reduced. Alternatively, they can also serve as reflection surfaces, for example for reflecting the radiation of a projector directed at them, as a result of which display images can be realized for the driver.
- Composite panes with PET-based functional films are known, for example, from US6280847B1, DE19534420A1 and W00160604A1.
- purely dielectric functional films are also available, which comprise a plurality of polymeric layers, layers with a higher and lower refractive index being arranged alternately.
- at least some of the layers are generally based on PET.
- Such a functional film can also achieve reflective properties through interference effects, for example with respect to IR radiation or visible radiation from a projector.
- a laminated pane with such a functional film is known, for example, from WO03099553A1.
- PET-based functional films arises from the fact that they have a different shrinkage behavior than typical connecting films, for example PVB foils. This can lead to the so-called orange skin effect - distortions which result from a deformation at the interface between the functional foil and the adjacent connecting foils and cause optical distortions which are particularly visible in reflection and are annoying.
- Composite panes in the automotive sector often have a surrounding peripheral masking area, which is opaque and surrounds a transparent central viewing area.
- the primary purpose of the opaque masking area is to protect the adhesive used to bond the laminated pane to the vehicle body from UV radiation. If the laminated pane is equipped with electrical functions (e.g. a heating function), the electrical connections required for this can also be concealed in the masking area.
- the masking area is typically formed by a black masking print on the surface of the outer pane facing the intermediate layer. It has been shown that the orange peel effect is particularly noticeable in this masked area, probably due to the higher contrast in front of the opaque background.
- a laminated pane is known from DE202019103729U1, in which a masking area is formed by an opaque layer of the intermediate layer.
- a laminated pane is known from US2020254731A1, in which a masking area is formed by an opaque area of the intermediate layer. To do this, an opaque film section is inserted into a section of the transparent intermediate layer. By avoiding a black cover print, optical distortions in the vicinity of the masking area, which can arise due to the different thermal absorption behavior of the masking area and the see-through area, for example during a glass bending process, are to be avoided in particular.
- the intermediate layer has a multi-layer structure and comprises a PET-based functional film between two PVB-based connecting layers, although it is not disclosed which elements of the multi-layer intermediate layer are replaced by the opaque film section in the masking area.
- a laminated pane is known from US2020290319A1, in which a masking area is formed by additionally inserting a thin, opaque polymer film into the intermediate layer is inserted.
- the intermediate layer has a multi-layer structure in certain configurations and comprises a PET-based functional film between two PVB-based connecting layers.
- the present invention is based on the object of providing a laminated pane with a PET-based functional film, the said orange peel effect being less noticeable.
- an advantageous method for producing such a composite pane is to be provided.
- the composite pane according to the invention comprises an outer pane and an inner pane, which are connected to one another via a thermoplastic intermediate layer.
- the laminated pane is intended to separate the interior from the outside environment in a window opening (in particular a window opening of a vehicle, but alternatively also a window opening of a building or a room).
- the inner pane refers to the pane of the laminated pane facing the interior.
- the outer pane refers to the pane facing the outside environment.
- the composite pane is preferably a vehicle pane, for example a window pane of a motor vehicle, rail vehicle, ship or aircraft. It is particularly preferably the windshield, side window, rear window or roof window of a passenger car or truck, very particularly preferably the windshield.
- the outer pane and the inner pane each have an outside and an inside surface (main surface) and a circumferential side edge surface running therebetween.
- the outside surface designates that main surface which is intended to face the external environment in the installed position.
- the interior-side surface designates that main surface which is intended to face the interior in the installed position.
- the interior surface of the outer pane and the outside surface of the inner pane face each other and are connected to one another by the thermoplastic intermediate layer.
- the laminated pane according to the invention has an opaque masking area and a transparent see-through area. In the context of the invention, the masking area refers to an area of the laminated pane through which it is not possible to look through.
- the light transmission of the masking area is preferably essentially 0%.
- the see-through region denotes a region of the laminated pane which enables a view through the glass pane and which therefore has a certain transparency or at least translucency.
- the light transmission of the see-through area is preferably at least 10%, particularly preferably at least 20%, very particularly preferably at least 50%.
- the light transmission is very particularly preferably at least 70%, in particular when the laminated pane is used as a windshield of a vehicle for which a total transmission must be greater than 70% (determined by the ECE-R 43, Annex 3, Section 9.1 method for testing the light transmission of motor vehicle panes).
- the masking area surrounds the see-through area like a frame.

- the panes can be clear or tinted or colored.
- the thicknesses of the outer pane and the inner pane, independently of one another, are preferably from 0.5 mm to 5 mm, particularly preferably from 1 mm to 3 mm.
- the outside surface of the outer pane has no coatings or imprints—it is, so to speak, completely exposed and uncoated.
- the remaining surfaces of the panes can have coatings customary in the art, in particular transparent coatings. This applies, for example, to
- sun protection coatings on the interior surface of the outer pane, which reflect infrared components of solar radiation
- TCO transparent electrically conductive oxide
- the laminated pane is preferably curved in one or more spatial directions, as is customary in particular for motor vehicle panes. Typical radii of curvature are in the range from about 10 cm to about 40 m.
- the interior surface of the inner pane is generally concavely curved, while the outside surface of the outer pane is convex.
- the invention also includes a projection arrangement.
- the projection arrangement comprises a composite pane according to the invention and an imaging unit.
- the imaging unit irradiates the functional film via the inner pane with electromagnetic radiation in the visible spectrum in order to generate a display image that a user located in the interior can perceive.
- the imaging unit is therefore arranged on the interior side of the laminated pane and irradiates the laminated pane via the interior-side surface of the inner pane.
- the radiation of the imaging unit is (partially) reflected on the functional film.
- the irradiated area of the functional film can be located in the see-through area and/or in the masking area of the laminated pane.
- a head-up display can be implemented in the viewing area, which projects information into the driver's field of vision without having to take his eyes off the road. Displays can also be useful in the masking area or desired for aesthetic reasons. For example, displays that were previously placed in the dashboard of a vehicle can be integrated into the laminated pane. In the case of the projection arrangement, the composite pane is preferably the windshield of a vehicle.
- the imaging unit can be a projector, for example, or an electronic display (“display”), for example an LCD, LED, or TFT display.
- a projector can be preferred - with this a good and high-intensity display image can be generated either in the see-through area or in the masking area.
- a display as an imaging unit can advantageously be used in particular for display images in the masking area.
- the area of the laminated pane irradiated by the imaging unit, in which the display image is generated, is referred to as the display area within the meaning of the invention.
- the imaging unit irradiates the functional film in the masking area.
- the orange peel effect is particularly noticeable in reflection. With a conventional masking area formed by a masking print, the orange peel effect is particularly noticeable and would lead to disturbances of the display image, in particular optical distortions. This is avoided or at least mitigated by the masking area designed according to the invention, so that the optical quality of the display image is improved.
- the radiation from the imaging unit has a p-polarized component.
- the p-polarized radiation component is preferably more than 50%, more preferably more than 70%, very preferably more than 90% of the radiation of the imaging unit.
- the radiation from the imaging unit is essentially purely p-polarized—the p-polarized radiation component is therefore 100% or deviates therefrom only insignificantly.
- the specification of the direction of polarization refers to the plane of incidence of the radiation on the laminated pane.
- P-polarized radiation is radiation whose electric field oscillates in the plane of incidence.
- S-polarized radiation is radiation whose electric field oscillates perpendicular to the plane of incidence.
- the plane of incidence is spanned by the incidence vector and the surface normal of the laminated pane in the geometric center of the irradiated area.
- the polarization ie in particular the proportion of p- and s-polarized radiation, is determined at a point in the display area, preferably in the geometric center of the display area. If the laminated pane is curved, which is usually the case in particular with vehicle panes, this affects the plane of incidence of the radiation from the imaging unit. Therefore, slightly deviating polarization components can occur in the other areas, which is unavoidable for physical reasons.
- the radiation from the imaging unit preferably strikes the laminated pane at an angle of incidence of 45° to 70°, in particular of 60° to 70°.
- the angle of incidence deviates from the Brewster angle by at most 10°.
- the p-polarized radiation is then reflected only to an insignificant extent on the surfaces of the laminated pane.
- the functional film represents the only significant reflection surface for the radiation of the imaging unit. If the radiation were also reflected significantly on the external surfaces of the laminated pane (air-glass transition), multiple images would arise, which would be at least annoying for the user, if not outright would be entirely unacceptable.
- the angle of incidence is the angle between the incidence vector of the radiation of the imaging unit and the interior surface normal (i.e.
- the Brewster angle for an air-glass transition in the case of soda-lime glass, which is common for window panes, is 56.5° (with a refractive index of soda-lime glass at 550 nm of 1.51).
- the angle of incidence should be as close as possible to this Brewster angle.
- angles of incidence of 65° can also be used, for example, which are customary for HUD projection arrangements, can be implemented without problems in vehicles and deviate only slightly from the Brewster angle, so that the reflection of the p-polarized radiation increases only insignificantly.
- the invention also includes a method for producing a composite pane with an opaque masking area and a transparent see-through area, wherein
- PET polyethylene terephthalate
- the layer stack is then laminated to form the laminated pane, with the opaque connecting film forming at least part of the opaque masking area of the laminated pane and the transparent connecting film being arranged in the transparent see-through area of the laminated pane.
- an intermediate layer is formed from the outer thermoplastic layer or sequence of layers, the functional film and the inner thermoplastic layer or sequence of layers, which connects the outer pane and the inner pane to one another. Because the opaque connecting film at least partially overlaps the functional film in method step (a), the functional film is at least partially arranged in the masking area of the composite pane.
- thermoplastic layers are preferably arranged by positioning a corresponding thermoplastic tie sheet in place.
- one or both of the adjacent layers can also be provided with a thin polymeric coating.
- a transparent inner connecting layer and the functional film are first arranged one on top of the other and permanently and stably connected to form a multilayer film (more precisely two-layer film, "bilayer"), for example by gluing or lamination (in particular under the influence of temperature).
- a multilayer film more precisely two-layer film, "bilayer”
- the advantage of the multi-layer film is that it can be handled like a single connecting film - the two layers are positioned together in the layer stack in one step and do not have to be arranged individually and consecutively congruently in the layer stack.
- the transparent connecting layer is in particular formed in one piece from a transparent inner connecting film, so that the multi-layer stack can be produced comparatively easily.
- the outer pane, optionally one or more further layers of the outer thermoplastic layered film, the first outer connecting layer, optionally one or more further layers of the outer thermoplastic layered film, the two-layer film and the inner pane are arranged flat on top of each other in the order given to form the layer stack, with the inner connecting layer of the multi-layer film facing the inner pane, so that after lamination it forms the inner thermoplastic layer of the composite pane.
- further connecting layers it is possible for further connecting layers to be inserted between the functional film and the inner pane, in particular transparent connecting layers, which then form the inner thermoplastic layer sequence together with the said inner connecting layer.
- a transparent inner connecting layer the functional film and a transparent second
- the outer connecting layer is arranged one on top of the other in the specified order and permanently and stably connected to form a multi-layer film (more precisely, a three-layer film, "trilayer"), for example by gluing or lamination (in particular under the influence of temperature).
- the functional film is securely embedded in the multi-layer film and, due to the connecting layers on the outside, has adhesive properties in relation to the panes and other connecting layers.
- the advantage of the multi-layer film is that it can be handled like a single connecting film - the three layers are positioned together in the layer stack in one step and do not have to be arranged individually and consecutively congruently in the layer stack.
- the transparent connecting layers are in particular formed in one piece from a transparent connecting film each, so that the multi-layer stack can be produced comparatively easily. A multi-layer stack involving the multi-piece first outer connecting layer would be more complex to produce.
- the outer pane, the first outer connecting layer, the multi-layer film and the inner pane are arranged flat on top of each other in the order given to form the stack of layers, with the inner connecting layer of the multi-layer film facing the inner pane so that after lamination it forms the inner thermoplastic layer of the composite pane.
- the second outer connecting layer of the multi-layer film faces the first outer connecting layer, so that after lamination, together with the first outer connecting layer, it forms the outer thermoplastic layer sequence.
- the laminated pane produced then consists of the following layers in the order given: Outer pane - first outer connecting layer - second outer connecting layer - functional film - inner connecting layer - inner pane. In principle, however, it is possible for further connecting layers to be inserted, in particular transparent connecting layers.
- Such a further transparent connecting layer is arranged between the multi-layer film and the inner pane, then together with said inner connecting layer it forms the inner thermoplastic layer sequence (the inner connecting layer as a component of the inner thermoplastic layer sequence). If such a further transparent connecting layer is arranged between the multilayer film and the first outer connecting layer or between the first outer connecting layer and the outer pane, then it becomes part of the outer layer sequence.
- Said multi-layer films are preferably provided in large-area form, for example as rolled goods, with dimensions that are significantly larger than the area of typical laminated panes. A suitable piece is then cut out of this during the production of the composite pane, as is also usual with simple connecting foils.
- the multi-piece first outer connecting layer should not be part of the multi-layer film, in which the arrangement of the opaque area depends on the respective composite pane.
- a large-area provision as rolled goods is therefore not possible, and the multilayer film could at most be produced from the individual layers that have already been cut to size, which as a rule would not bring any advantages in terms of process technology.
- process step (b) the stack of layers obtained is laminated to form the composite slide.
- Methods known per se can be used for this purpose, for example autoclave methods, vacuum bag methods, vacuum ring methods, calendering methods, vacuum laminators or combinations thereof.
- the panes are usually connected via the intermediate layer under the action of heat, vacuum and/or pressure.
- the outer pane and the inner pane are subjected to a bending process prior to lamination in order to bring them into a cylindrical or spherically curved shape.
- the sheets are softened by heating so that they become plastically formable and then shaped by methods known per se, for example gravity bending, press bending and/or suction bending.
- Typical temperatures for glass bending processes are, for example, from 500°C to 700°C.

- the functional film 3 is, however, connected to the outer pane 1 by a thermoplastic layer sequence, which comprises a first outer connecting layer 4 and a second outer connecting layer 6.
- the second outer connecting layer 6 is formed from a transparent PVB film with a thickness of 0.38 mm.
- the first outer connecting layer 4 is composed of a transparent film 4a and an opaque film 4b, each based on PVB with a thickness of 0.38 mm.
- the opaque film 4b prevents the view through the laminated pane and thus forms the masking area M. There is no covering print, as in the case of the conventional laminated pane of FIG.
- the inventors have found that the orange peel effect is much less noticeable against the background of the opaque film 4b than against the background of the cover print 7. Optical distortions are less noticeable, which can be seen with the naked eye and can be used for a qualitative comparison (e.g. with a lamp reflected on the laminated pane). This is the great advantage of the present invention.
- the first outer connecting layer 4 faces the outer pane 1 and the second outer connecting layer 6 faces the functional film 3.
- a multi-layer film involving the multi-piece first outer connecting layer 4 would, however, be more complicated to produce, especially since such multi-layer films are typically provided on a large scale as rolls and a piece required for the respective composite pane is cut out of it.
- FIG. 4 shows a cross section along line XX′ of a further embodiment of the laminated pane according to the invention. It has the same components as the embodiment of Figure 3, which are also of the same design, but the two are outer connecting layers 4, 6 arranged in reverse order.
- the first outer connecting layer 4 faces the functional film 3 and the second outer connecting layer e faces the outer pane 1.
- FIG. 5 shows a cross section along the section line X-X' of a further embodiment of the laminated pane according to the invention.
- the outer pane 1, the inner pane 2 and the inner connecting layer 5 have the same design as in FIGS. 3 and 4.
- a single outer thermoplastic layer namely the first outer connecting layer 4 with a thickness of 0.76 mm. It is in turn composed of a transparent film 4a in the see-through area D and an opaque film 4b in the masking area M.
- the functional film 3 is a PET carrier film with a thickness of approximately 50 ⁇ m, on which an electrically conductive coating with silver layers is applied. Since the silver layers are susceptible to corrosion, the functional film 3 does not extend to the side edge of the laminated pane. Instead, the inner connecting layer 5 and the first outer connecting layer 4 are fused directly to one another in the peripheral edge region of the laminated pane, so that the functional film is encapsulated in the intermediate layer.
- Such functional films 3 are sold, for example, by Eastman under the product name XI R.
- a functional film 3 as in Figure 5 can also be combined with the outer thermoplastic layer sequences in Figures 3 and 4, and a functional film 3 as in Figures 3 and 4 can also be combined with the individual outer thermoplastic layer in Figure 5.
- the orange peel effect was evaluated by qualitatively assessing the reflection of a ceiling lamp on a laminated pane.
- the masking area of the laminated pane was formed by an opaque film, in the comparative example in a conventional manner by a black masking print (baked enamel with glass frits) on the surface facing the intermediate layer the outer pane.
- the inner pane faced the ceiling lamp, and it was evaluated how much the reflection image had ripples due to the orange peel effect. The following observations were made:
- the inventors attribute this observation to the fact that the orange peel effect in the comparative example is caused or intensified by the roughness of the masking print, which can be prevented by using the opaque film.
