Process for the preparation of a vehicle window

摘要

The invention is a process for preparing a prefabricated vehicle window comprising the sequential steps of: (a) placing a cover film in a receptacle to provide a film cavity, with a portion of the cover film extending out of the receptacle, wherein the cavity is of a dimension sufficient to hold a bead of adhesive which would extend around the entire periphery of the window; (b) depositing a bead of an uncured, deformable adhesive in the cavity on top of the cover film in an amount sufficient to slightly overfill the cavity; and (c) contacting the bead of adhesive with a vehicle window under conditions sufficient to press adhesive out of the cavity and between the vehicle window and the portion of the cover film extending over the sides of the receptacle such that the adhesive pressed out of the cavity bonds the film to the window along the edges of the bead of adhesive.
