Benefits of DuPont™ SentryGlas®

DuPont™ SentryGlas® high strength interlayer Stiffer and tougher than PVB, clear DuPont™ SentryGlas® interlayers come in standard thicknesses of 35, 60, 90 and 120 mil (0.90, 1.52, 2.28 and 3.05 mm)

Changing the way you look at glass
Five times stronger and 100 times stiffer than conventional laminating materials, DuPont™ SentryGlas® interlayers help create glass that protects against bigger storms, larger impacts and heavier loads.

SentryGlas®
Since the interlayers are an engineered component within the glass, they serve as a more active structural element in the building envelope. This extra strength also increases design freedom, and improves long-term weather resistance. SentryGlas® is also less susceptible to moisture and it remains free from clouding, even after years of service.

On the edge
DuPont™ SentryGlas® handles higher structural loads than PVB, so it’s an excellent choice for facades that have open edges and minimal support. It reduces the need for four-sided edge framing.

Protection from the elements
SentryGlas® is stiffer and tougher than conventional interlayers. This means it can withstand greater impacts from winds and wind-borne debris. In fact, homeowners are increasingly opting for SentryGlas® over storm shutter systems.

Benefits at a glance

  • Safety: In the event of breakage, glass fragments remain firmly bonded to the interlayer, reducing the chance for injury.
  • Security: SentryGlas® can be used in glazing that withstands bullets, hurricane-force winds and even bomb blasts.
  • Solar energy control: SentryGlas® can be specified with reflective coated glass or low-E glass, with heat-absorbing glass tints. UV-absorbing additives can also be incorporated into the interlayer.
  • Durability: SentryGlas® is extremely durable and resistant to clouding, even after years of exposure.
  • Design Flexibility : SentryGlas® can be used in glass manufactured flat or curved, including annealed, toughened, heat-strengthened, spandrel, wired, patterned and color tinted glass.
