Abstract
Abstract Energy-absorbing interlayers and glass laminates prepared therefrom for use as automobile windshields and other safety glass applications are disclosed. The interlayers are made from a poly(lactone-urethane) in which the molecular weight and structure of the lactone moiety is carefully controlled so as to get optimum energy-absorbing and optical properties.
