Abstract

Abstract An infrared reflecting laminated glass having more than 70% transmission of visible rays comprising a pair of glass sheets with flexible, laminated interlayer films is disclosed wherein the interlayer films comprise a pair of polyvinyl butyral interlayer films which hold an infrared reflecting plastic film. The infrared reflecting plastic film is formed by sequentially coating, on a plastic film, a tungsten oxide layer havig a thickness of 180A to 500A or 1400A to 1600A, a silver layer having a thickness of 80A to 150A, and a tungsten oxide layer having a thickness of 180A to 500A or 1400A to 1600A, wherein at least one of the polyvinyl butyral interlayer films incorporates an ultraviolet absorbent.
