Abstract
Methods of manufacturing and characteristics of polished plate, float, sheet, clear, tinted, shaded, tempered, laminated, and special glasses are briefly described. Codes, laws, and specifications governing automotive glass use are reviewed. Present practices in automotive glass use are presented; future possibilities, compatible with apparent automotive trends, are discussed with particular attention to thin glass, electrically heated, and “roof” glasses.
