The Effect of Size, Thickness, and Type of the Bonding Interlayer on Bullet Proof Glass as per EN 1063
This investigation presents preparation of sample and
analysis of results of ballistic impact test as per EN 1063 on the size,
thickness, number, position, and type of the bonding interlayer
Polyvinyl Butyral, Poly Carbonate and Poly Urethane on bullet proof
glass. It was observed that impact energy absorbed by bullet proof
glass increases with the increase of the total thickness from 33mm to
42mm to 51mm for all the three samples respectively. Absorption
impact energy is greater for samples with more number of bonding
interlayers than with the number of glass layers for uniform increase
in total sample thickness. There is no effect on the absorption impact
energy with the change in position of the bonding interlayer.
