Vehicle windows made with laminated safety glass consist of which arrangement?

• A. A single sheet of tempered glass
• B. Two sheets of glass bonded to a plastic interlayer between them
• C. Laminated safety glass
• D. Three layers of glass with adhesive

Answer: (B)

Laminated safety glass is built with two sheets of glass bonded to a plastic interlayer between them. This interlayer—often polyvinyl butyral (PVB)—holds the shards together when the glass is broken, reducing the risk of injury from flying fragments and helping prevent penetration. This arrangement distinguishes laminated windshields from simple tempered glass, which is a single layer and can shatter into sharp pieces, and from other multi-layer setups that aren’t the standard laminated construction.
