## Abstract

Provided is a laminated glazed unit having at least one first glass substrate and a second glass substrate, at least one functional film arranged between the two glass substrates, at least one first lamination interlayer film between the first glass substrate and the functional film, and at least one second lamination interlayer film between the second glass substrate and the functional film. The functional film has at least one layer of a transparent adhesive material, referred to as OCA, which is viscoelastic so as to be deformable in its thickness during the process for laminating the glazed unit.

## Claims

### Claim at position 1

1: A laminated glazed unit, comprising
at least one first glass substrate and a second glass substrate,
at least one functional film arranged between the first and second glass substrates,
at least one first lamination interlayer film between the first glass substrate and the functional film, and
at least one second lamination interlayer film between the second glass substrate and the functional film,
wherein the functional film comprises at least one layer of a transparent adhesive material OCA, which is viscoelastic so as to be deformable in its thickness during a process for laminating the glazed unit.

### Claim at position 2 (depends on 1)

2: The laminated glazed unit of claim 1, wherein the at least one OCA layer has a hardness of between 10 and 50 Shore000.

### Claim at position 3 (depends on 1)

3: The laminated glazed unit of claim 1, wherein the at least one OCA layer has a thickness of greater than 0.5 mm.

### Claim at position 4 (depends on 1)

4: The laminated glazed unit according to claim 1, wherein
the functional film comprises a first flexible transparent substrate, a first OCA layer, and a second flexible transparent substrate, and
the first flexible transparent substrate and/or the second flexible transparent substrate have a technical function.

### Claim at position 5 (depends on 1)

5: The laminated glazed unit according to claim 1, wherein the functional film comprises a first flexible transparent substrate, a first OCA layer, a second flexible transparent substrate having a technical function, a second OCA layer, and a third flexible transparent substrate.

### Claim at position 6 (depends on 4)

6: The laminated glazed unit according to claim 4, wherein the second flexible transparent substrate having a technical function is a liquid crystal cell.

### Claim at position 7 (depends on 6)

7: The laminated glazed unit according to claim 6, wherein the liquid crystal cell is a “guest-host” cell containing a mixture of a liquid solution and liquid crystals.

### Claim at position 8 (depends on 6)

8: The laminated glazed unit according to claim 6, wherein the liquid crystal cell is a polymer-dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) system or a cholesteric liquid crystal (CLC) system or a polymer network liquid crystal (PNLC) system.

### Claim at position 9 (depends on 4)

9: The laminated glazed unit according to claim 4, wherein the flexible transparent substrate having a technical function is an infrared-reflecting film.

### Claim at position 10 (depends on 1)

10: The laminated glazed unit according to claim 1, wherein the OCA is a transparent adhesive material deposited in liquid form and crosslinked.

### Claim at position 11 (depends on 1)

11: The laminated glazed unit according to claim 1, wherein the OCA is a transparent material in the form of a polymerized film, preferably a pressure sensitive film.

### Claim at position 12 (depends on 1)

12: The laminated glazed unit according to claim 1, wherein the OCA is a transparent adhesive material in the form of a crosslinked post-adhesive film.

### Claim at position 13 (depends on 1)

13: The laminated glazed unit according to claim 1, wherein the OCA is selected from the group consisting of an acrylic-based OCA, a polyvinyl acetate-based OCA, a polyurethane-based OCA, a silicon-based OCA, and an epoxy-based OCA.

### Claim at position 14 (depends on 1)

14: The laminated glazed unit according to claim 1, which is bent.
