If a knife is given enough force could it pierce through laminated glass?

bullet proof glass

"Bulletproof glass is often made of several float glass, toughened glass and Perspex panels,"

Perspex (PMMA, acrylic, plexiglas) is unsuitable for bulletproof glass, IMO. Darsie from german wiki pedia (talk) 22:16, 28 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

More likely it uses polycarbonate (Lexan being a common brand name) instead as that is much stronger.

Clarification of differences from Corelle Vitrelle

This appears to talk about a different kind of glass than what Corelle dishware is made from. They talk about the glass having 3-layers, but it appears that the layers are poured at once, at temperature, without any bonding layer between them.

Should this be made more clear? Is this some other way to make laminated glass? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.126.155.94 (talk) 21:33, 1 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]


Repair

According to the US National Windshield Repair Association many types of stone damage can be successfully repaired. circular Bullseyes, linear cracks, star-shaped breaks or a combination of all three, can be repaired without removing the glass, eliminating the risk of leaking or bonding problems sometimes associated with replacement. In some places like Texas, the repair can even be done for free since the insurance companies waive the deductible as an incentive to choose repair over replacement - Auto Glass Houston — Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.54.204.156 (talk) 07:01, 16 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
