ABSTRACT:
An electrochromic glazing assembly is disclosed with reduced near-infrared radiation transmission and reduced ultraviolet (UV) radiation transmission. The assembly may include at least a pair of glass or other elements confining an electrochromic medium therebetween. Ultraviolet radiation reducing means are incorporated for reducing ultraviolet radiation transmission through the assembly. A polymeric antilacerative layer is disposed on one surface of one of the glass elements for preventing lacerative injuries. Reduced near-infrared radiation transmission means may also be included.
