[0034] Effects of the Invention

[0035] The laminated glass of the present invention comprises a first component, a dimming layer and a second component, wherein the first component comprises a first laminated glass component and a first resin layer, and the second component comprises a second laminated glass component and a second resin layer. In the laminated glass of the present invention, the first laminated glass component, the first resin layer, the dimming layer, the second resin layer and the second laminated glass component are arranged in this order. In the laminated glass of the present invention, the color of the first component is different from the color of the second component. Since the laminated glass of the present invention has the above-mentioned structure, it has high designability. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0036] [ Figure 1 ] Figure 1 This is a cross-sectional view schematically showing a laminated glass according to one embodiment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0037] Hereinafter, the details of the present invention are described.

[0038] (Laminated glass)

[0039] The laminated glass of the present invention comprises a first component, a dimming layer and a second component, wherein the first component comprises a first laminated glass component and a first resin layer, and the second component comprises a second laminated glass component and a second resin layer. In the laminated glass of the present invention, the first laminated glass component, the first resin layer, the dimming layer, the second resin layer and the second laminated glass component are sequentially arranged. In the laminated glass of the present invention, the first laminated glass component, the first resin layer, the dimming layer, the second resin layer and the second laminated glass component are sequentially arranged in the thickness direction of the laminated glass. In the laminated glass of the present invention, the color of the first component is different from the color of the second component.

[0040] Since the laminated glass of the present invention has the above-mentioned structure, it has high design properties.

[0041] Furthermore, in the laminated glass of the present invention, by appropriately selecting the first component and the second component so as to form a combination in a complementary color relationship, when no voltage is applied, the color observed from the first component side and the color observed from the second component side can be different, and when a voltage is applied, the color can be achromatic or nearly achromatic.

[0042] For the laminated glass (dimming glass) of the present invention, for example, when used as window glass of a vehicle, when no voltage is applied, the color of the window glass when viewed from the inside of the vehicle is different from that when viewed from the outside of the vehicle, so the design is high. For example, the color of the window glass when viewed from the inside of the vehicle can be the same color as the interior of the vehicle, or a colorless or nearly achromatic, while the color of the window glass when viewed from the outside of the vehicle can be the same color as the vehicle body, or a color with high privacy protection. In addition, by appropriately selecting the first component and the second component in a complementary color relationship, a colorless or nearly achromatic can be used when a voltage is applied. Therefore, when a voltage is applied, the visual recognition from the inside and outside of the vehicle can be improved.

[0043] It should be noted that, in the laminated glass, the method for making the color of the first component and the color of the second component different is not particularly limited. For example, the color of the first component and the color of the second component can be made different by making the first resin layer and the second resin layer different colors, and making the first laminated glass component and the second laminated glass component the same color (for example, colorless and transparent). In addition, for example, the color of the first component and the color of the second component can be made different by making the first resin layer and the second resin layer the same color, and making the first laminated glass component and the second laminated glass component different colors. In addition, for example, the color of the first component and the color of the second component can be made different by making the first resin layer and the second resin layer different colors, and making the first laminated glass component and the second laminated glass component different colors.

[0126] The visible light transmittance and the visible light spectrum can be measured in the following manner.

[0127] A measurement object (the first component, the second component, or the laminated glass) is prepared. When the measurement object is the first component or the second component, the first component and the second component may be peeled off from the laminated glass to prepare the first component and the second component. When the measurement object is the first component, a transparent glass having a thickness of 2.5 mm based on JIS R3202:1996 is arranged on the surface of the first resin layer on the opposite side to the first laminated glass component to obtain a laminate. When the measurement object is the second component, a transparent glass having a thickness of 2.5 mm based on JIS R3202:1996 is arranged on the surface of the second resin layer on the opposite side to the second laminated glass component to obtain a laminate. The obtained laminate is placed in a rubber bag, degassed at a vacuum degree of 2.6 kPa for 20 minutes, and then directly transferred to an oven after degassed, and further vacuum pressed at 90° C. for 30 minutes to pre-press the laminate. The pre-pressed laminate was pressed in an autoclave at 135° C. and a pressure of 1.2 MPa for 20 minutes to obtain a measurement sample (laminated glass for measurement).

[0128] In addition, when the object to be measured is a laminated glass, the laminated glass itself is used as the measurement sample (laminated glass for measurement).

[0129] The visible light transmittance and visible light spectrum of the measurement sample (laminated glass for measurement) are respectively used as the visible light transmittance and visible light spectrum of the measurement object. In other words, the visible light transmittance and visible light spectrum of the measurement sample are respectively used as the visible light transmittance and visible light spectrum of the measurement object, i.e., the first component, the second component, or the laminated glass.

[0130] The visible light transmittance of the measurement sample can be measured using a spectrophotometer (e.g., "U-4150" manufactured by HITACHI HI GH-TECH Co., Ltd.) based on JIS R3212:2021 and using a light source A specified in JIS Z8701 at a wavelength of 380 nm to 780 nm. It should be noted that the visible light transmittance is preferably measured at the center of the top view of the measurement object.

[0131] The main wavelength of visible light refers to a wavelength having the lowest transmittance among absorption wavelengths caused by a colorant in the visible light spectrum.

[0132] Hereinafter, each member used in the laminated glass of the present invention will be further described.

[0133] (Dimming layer)

[0134] The dimming layer is a layer having dimming properties. The dimming property refers to the property that the optical properties change by the imparting of energy.

The liquid crystal material may be dispersed as a continuous phase in the adhesive, or may be dispersed in the adhesive in the form of liquid crystal droplets or liquid crystal capsules. Examples of the liquid crystal material include nematic liquid crystals and cholesteric liquid crystals.

The material for the cholesteric liquid crystal may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0140] The adhesive holds the liquid crystal material and inhibits the flow of the liquid crystal material. The adhesive is preferably insoluble in the liquid crystal material, has a strength capable of withstanding external forces, and has high transmittance for reflected light and incident light. Examples of the material for the adhesive include water-soluble polymer materials such as gelatin, polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl acetal resin, cellulose derivatives, polyacrylic polymers, ethyleneimine, polyethylene oxide, polyacrylamide, polystyrene sulfonate, polyamidine, isoprene sulfonic acid polymer, etc., and materials capable of being water-emulsified such as fluororesin, polysiloxane resin, acrylic resin, polyurethane resin, epoxy resin, etc. The material for the adhesive may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

The crosslinking agent is not particularly limited as long as it forms crosslinks between the adhesives to harden, insolubilize or make the adhesive hardly soluble. Examples of the crosslinking agent include acetaldehyde, glutaraldehyde, glyoxal, potassium alum hydrate of polyvalent metal salt compounds, adipic dihydrazide, melamine formaldehyde oligomer, ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether, polyamide epichlorohydrin, and polycarbodiimide. The crosslinking agent may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

For example, the dimming film can be obtained by laminating the first resin layer, the dimming layer and the second resin layer and then performing heat pressing. Laminated glass is manufactured in the following manner using the obtained dimming film and the first and second laminated glass components. The obtained dimming film is sandwiched between the first laminated glass component and the second laminated glass component to obtain a laminate. Next, for example, the obtained laminate is decompressed and sucked by passing the obtained laminate through a pressing roller or placing it in a rubber bag, thereby degassing the air remaining between the first laminated glass component, the second laminated glass component and the dimming film. Then, pre-pressing is performed at about 70°C to 110°C to obtain a pre-pressed laminate. Next, the preliminarily pressed laminate is placed in an autoclave or a press, and pressed at about 120° C. to 150° C. and a pressure of 1 MPa to 1.5 MPa. Thus, a laminated glass can be obtained.
