Laminated glass

A laminated glass comprising a first glass plate, a second glass plate, and an interlayer film,

• the interlayer film being arranged between the first glass plate and the second glass plate,
• the first glass plate having a thickness that is equal to a thickness of the second glass plate, or smaller than the thickness of the second glass plate,
• the laminated glass having a portion where a lateral surface of the interlayer film is exposed,
• an end part of the interlayer film containing (1a cured thermosetting agent, (2) a cured UV curing agent, or (3) a micro capsule,
• the end part of the interlayer film containing a thermoplastic resin which is a polyvinyl acetal resin, an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer resin, an ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer resin, a polyurethane resin, an ionomer resin or a polyvinyl alcohol resin, or the end part of the interlayer film containing a thermoplastic resin which is a thermoplastic elastomer,
• a ratio of a weight of broken glass pieces determined by a ball drop test in a laminated glass after a dipping-light irradiation test, to a weight of broken glass pieces determined by the ball drop test in a laminated glass not having undergone the dipping-light irradiation test being 2.5 or less,
• the dipping-light irradiation test including conducting a process of:
• dipping a laminated glass before the dipping-light irradiation test in pure water at 80° C. for 24 hours;
• removing the laminated glass from the pure water;
• wiping off water of the laminated glass;
• leaving the laminated glass to stand at 23° C. for 4 hours;
• and subjecting the laminated glass to irradiation with xenon light for 144 hours at a black panel temperature of 83° C., a temperature inside a vessel of 53° C. and a humidity of 50% RH, the laminated glass after the dipping-light irradiation test being obtained by conducting 15 cycles of the process, the irradiation with xenon light being conducted with an irradiance of 180 W/m2, a wavelength for measuring the irradiance of 300 to 400 nm, an inner filter of quartz, and an outer filter of quartz:
• #275 (cutoff 275),
• the ball drop test including:
• storing each of a laminated glass not having undergone the dipping-light irradiation test and a laminated glass after the dipping-light irradiation test at 23±2° C. and at a humidity of 50% RH for 4 hours;
• and dropping a ball for each of the laminated glasses after the storing, the ball being an iron ball having a diameter of 1.5 inches and a weight of 229 g from a height of 30 cm on a side of the first glass plate at a position of 0.5 mm inwardly from a lateral surface of the laminated glass in the portion where the lateral surface of the interlayer film is exposed, the dropping of the ball being conducted under an atmosphere at 23±2° C. and a humidity of 50% RH, the weight of broken glass pieces determined by the ball drop test being obtained by measuring a weight of broken glass pieces released from the interlayer film.
