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.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 83 words
A poly(lactone-ester) polyol having a hydroxyl number within the range of 62 to 140 inclusive formed from ring opening a lactone having 6 to 8 carbon atoms with a hydroxy-terminated polyester having a hydroxyl number below 600 formed from an aliphatic polycarboxylic acid containing from 3 to 10 carbon atoms and a polyol selected from the class consisting of aliphatic diols free of alkyl substitution, cycloaliphatic diols and aliphatic triols containing from 2 to 10 carbon atoms and oxyalkylated products of these polyols.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 83 words
A poly(lactone-ester) polyol having a hydroxyl number within the range of 62 to 140 inclusive formed from ring opening a lactone having 6 to 8 carbon atoms with a hydroxy-terminated polyester having a hydroxyl number below 600 formed from an aliphatic polycarboxylic acid containing from 3 to 10 carbon atoms and a polyol selected from the class consisting of aliphatic diols free of alkyl substitution, cycloaliphatic diols and aliphatic triols containing from 2 to 10 carbon atoms and oxyalkylated products of these polyols.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 73 words
The poly(lactone-ester) polyol of claim 1 which has the following structural formula: ##STR7## where m has a value of between 1 to 6, n is an integer of from 4 to 6, R' is an aliphatic moiety free of alkyl substitution containing from 2 to 10 carbon atoms, R" is an aliphatic moiety containing from 3 to 10 carbon atoms and x + y is a number which ranges from 2 to 16.
