Layered bendable puncture resistant glass article and method of making

A glass article, comprising:

• a first glass layer having a thickness of from 10 microns to 70 microns;
• a second glass layer disposed adjacent to the first glass layer, the second glass layer having a thickness of from 10 microns to 70 microns;
• a first interface slidably coupling the first glass layer to the second glass layer, the interface comprising a thickness of from 2 nm to 500 nm;
• a third glass layer disposed adjacent to the second glass layer, the third glass layer having a thickness of from 10 microns to 70 microns;
• a second interface slidably coupling the second glass layer to the third glass layer, the second interface comprising a thickness of from 2 nm to 500 nm;
• the glass article characterized by:
• (a) an absence of failure when the article is held at a parallel plate separation distance of 2 mm for 60 minutes at 25° C. and 50% relative humidity;
• (b) a puncture resistance of greater than about 6 kgf when the third glass layer is supported by (i) an 50 μm thick pressure-sensitive adhesive having an elastic modulus of less than 1 GPa and (ii) an approximately 100 μm thick polyethylene terephthalate layer having an elastic modulus of less than 10 GPa, and the first glass layer is loaded with a tungsten carbide ball having a 1 mm diameter.
