Last year Argotec Inc. introduced its ArgoEdgeSealPLUS, a patent-pending, TPU-Foil-TPU construction used to protect the edges of both TPU- and PVB-interlayered laminated glass composites. Now the company has completed testing that it says demonstrates an advantage over other edge seal products in protecting the polycarbonate component in autoclave-laminated security glazing composites.
ArgoEdgeSealPLUS can be used to protect any laminated glass composite produced by an autoclave process. It provides not only a highly impermeable chemical barrier but also serves as a 50-mil “bumper” that reduces the potential for mechanical damage during handling and installation.
