Permanent bonding of glass surface to wood without visible bonding residues

Abstract

A durable composite body made of glass and wood, characterized in that the glass and wood are joined together in a material-locking and / or form-locking manner, wherein the composite body has no externally visible joints and is suitable for easy further processing.

Description

2. Technical field The invention relates to a glass surface bonded with wood / wood veneer for interior and exterior applications, both in crafts and in industry. 3. State of the art Current technology exists for glass-wood connections that are suitable exclusively for interior applications. Due to their bonded nature, these connections are susceptible to external influences such as water during milling. This prevents further processing of already joined pieces. 4. Task of the connection The invention is based on the objective of producing a durable, large-area, water- and heat-resistant bond between glass or tempered glass and wood, which can also be further processed over a large area according to the type of glass without affecting the wood layer. 5. Solution to the task This problem is solved by a glass-wood composite with the features of claim 1. A durable composite body made of glass and wood, characterized in that the glass and wood are superficially bonded and / or form-fitted, wherein the composite body has no externally visible joints and is suitable for easy further processing. 6. Detailed description of an exemplary embodiment A glass surface is evenly fractured and left untreated. A transparent, drying polyvinyl acetate or synthetic resin adhesive is applied to the fractured, dry surface, and then a piece of wood is placed on top. Moistening the fractured surface with the adhesive makes it transparent again, revealing the wood layer beneath. While still damp, the entire piece is pressed together under pressure between 10 kg and 9000 kg until the adhesive has set. The workpiece can then be processed like normal glass without having to worry about the wood, as the bond is permanent and seamless. There are no visible joints.

Claims

A durable composite body made of glass and wood, characterized in that the glass and wood are joined together in a materially bonded and / or form-fitting manner, wherein the composite body has no externally visible joints and is suitable for easy further processing.
