Abstract

The production of safety glass is a multi-stage process and as such has a number of parameters that affect the final quality of the glass. The article presents an analysis of the influence of one of the production parameters on the results of the impact test. The object of the experiment was laminated safety glass with PVB foil of different humidity. This glass was tested in accordance with the ČSN EN 356 standard.
