   Repair of cracks up to 6.1 cm (2.4 inches) is within permissible limits; automobile glass with more severe damage needs to be replaced. However, this is dependent on local laws. If a crack extends to the edge of the panel then this would compromise the structural integrity of the windshield.

3. Laminated glass - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laminated_glass

   Automobile windshield with "spider web" cracking typical of laminated safety glass. Laminated glass is a type of safety glass consisting of two or more layers of glass with one or more thin polymer interlayers between them which prevent the glass from breaking into large sharp pieces. [ 1 ]

4. Vehicle glass - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vehicle_glass

   It is the piece of glass opposite the windshield. Back glass is made from tempered glass, also known as safety glass, and when broken shatters into small, round pieces. [1] Windshields are made of laminated glass, which consists of two layers of glass, separated by a vinyl sheet. [2] Vehicle glass may contain heating coils or antennae. [3]

5. Delamination - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delamination

   Delamination is a mode of failure where a material fractures into layers. A variety of materials, including laminate composites [1] and concrete, can fail by delamination. Processing can create layers in materials, such as steel formed by rolling [2] [3] and plastics and metals from 3D printing [4] [5] which can fail from

6. Safety glass - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safety_glass

   As a result of its safety and strength, tempered glass is used in a variety of demanding applications, including passenger vehicle windows, shower doors, architectural glass doors and tables, refrigerator trays, as a component of bulletproof glass, for diving masks, and various types of plates and cookware. In the United States, since 1977 ...

7. Tempered glass - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tempered_glass

   [1] [2] The more rapid contraction of the outer layer during manufacturing induces compressive stresses in the surface of the glass balanced by tensile stresses in the body of the glass. Fully tempered 6-mm thick glass must have either a minimum surface compression of 69 MPa (10 000 psi) or an edge compression of not less than 67 MPa (9 700 psi ...
