Ballistic glass and associated methods and assemblies

A ballistic glass assembly comprising:

• a first layer comprising a poly ethylene terephthalate (PET) film located on an exterior face of the ballistic glass assembly;
• a second layer comprising annealed silica glass connected to the first layer by a first adhesive layer;
• and
• a third layer comprising a material selected from the group consisting of a polycarbonate material, an acrylic material, and a ceramic material, the third layer connected to the second layer by a second adhesive layer, the third layer positioned on an opposite side of the second layer from the first layer and located on an interior face of the ballistic glass assembly, the third layer having a thickness between 0.05 in (12.7 mm) and 0.75 in (19.05 mm);
• wherein a thickness of the ballistic glass assembly is between 0.875 in (22.23 mm) and 1.3 in (33.02 mm).

A method of forming a ballistic glass assembly, comprising:

• forming a first layer comprising a poly ethylene terephthalate (PET) film located on an exterior face of the ballistic glass assembly;
• forming a second layer comprising annealed silica glass;
• adhering the first layer to the second layer with a first adhesive layer;
• forming a third layer comprising a material selected from at least one of a polycarbonate material, an acrylic material, and a ceramic material, the third layer having a thickness between 0.05 in (12.7 mm) and 0.75 in (19.05 mm);
• and
• adhering the third layer to the second layer with a second adhesive layer, the second adhesive layer position on an opposite side of the second layer from the first layer.

A ballistic glass assembly comprising:

• a polymer sheet layer located on an exterior face of the ballistic glass assembly;
• at least one annealed silica glass layer adhered to the polymer sheet layer through a first adhesive layer;
• and
• an impact layer comprising at least one of a polycarbonate material, an acrylic material, and a ceramic material, the impact layer connected to the at least one annealed silica glass layer by a second adhesive layer, the impact layer positioned on an opposite side of the at least one annealed silica glass layer from the polymer sheet layer and located on an interior face of the ballistic glass assembly, the impact layer having a thickness between 0.05 in (12.7 mm) and 0.75 in (19.05 mm);
• wherein a thickness of the ballistic glass assembly is between 0.875 in (22.23 mm) and 1.3 in (33.02 mm).
