Abstract
Abstract The invention relates to a molded window glass intended to be installed by gluing it into a window opening, especially a window opening in a car. The molded profile has at least one reactive surface comprising free OH groups which can subsequently react with the strip of adhesive used for installation of the window glass in the window opening by gluing.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
58 words
A solid or laminated window glass equipped with a molded peripheral profile, intended to be installed in a window opening by gluing, wherein the molded profile presents at last one reactive face comprising free OH groups which are able to subsequently react with a strip of adhesive used for installation of the window glass in said window opening.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
58 words
A solid or laminated window glass equipped with a molded peripheral profile, intended to be installed in a window opening by gluing, wherein the molded profile presents at last one reactive face comprising free OH groups which are able to subsequently react with a strip of adhesive used for installation of the window glass in said window opening.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
37 words
A window glass according to claim 1, wherein the reactive face is obtained by treatment using a reactive treatment compound comprising a polyol component and an isocyanate component which can form a polyurethane with free HO groups.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
34 words
A window glass according to claim 2, wherein the reactive treatment compound is formed with an isocyanate component and a polyol component, the ratio of NCO groups to OH groups being less than 1.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
15 words
A window glass according to claim 3, wherein said ratio is between 0.3 and 0.99.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
20 words
A window glass according to claim 3, wherein the polyol component comprises a polyol with a functionally greater than 2.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
16 words
A window glass according to claim 2, wherein the isocyanate component is methylene diphenyl diisocyanate based.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
32 words
A window glass according to claim 1, wherein the reactive face is obtained by treatment using a reactive treatment compound comprising components which can form an epoxy resin with free OH groups.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
31 words
A window glass according to claim 1, wherein before the treatment using the reactive treatment compound, the face of the molded profile is first treated, at least once, with a solvent.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
22 words
A window glass according to claim 8, wherein said solvent is selected from the group consisting of chlorinated solvents, acetone, and tetrahydrofurane.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
122 words
