    Abstract: A laminated glass article including a base layer, an anisotropic layer disposed over a top surface of the base layer, and a glass layer disposed over the anisotropic layer. The anisotropic layer may include homogeneous mechanical anisotropic properties measured at intervals of 250 microns. In some embodiments, the anisotropic layer may be an orthotropic layer including homogeneous mechanical orthotropic properties measured at intervals of 250 microns. The homogenous mechanical anisotropic or orthotropic properties of the anisotropic layer may provide a flexible laminated glass article with a high resistance to impact and puncture forces. In some embodiments, the laminated glass article may define all or a portion of a cover substrate for a consumer product.

    Abstract: A foldable electronic device module includes: a glass-containing cover element having a thickness from about (25) μm to about (200) μm, an elastic modulus from about (20) to (140) GPa, and first and second primary surfaces; a stack comprising: (a) an interlayer having an elastic modulus from about (0.01) to (10) GPa and a thickness from about 50 to (200) μm, and (b) a flexible substrate having a thickness from about (100) to (200) μm; and a first adhesive joining the stack to the cover element, and comprising an elastic modulus from about (0.001) to (10) GPa and a thickness from about (5) to (25) μm. Further, the module comprises an impact resistance characterized by tensile stresses of less than about (4100) MPa and less than about (8300) MPa at the first and second primary surfaces of the cover element, respectively, upon an impact in a Pen Drop Test.

    Abstract: A glass article having a first glass layer, a second glass layer disposed adjacent to the first glass layer, and an interface slidably coupling the first glass layer to the second glass layer. The interface has a thickness of from 2 nm to 500 nm. The glass article is characterized by: (a) an absence of failure when the article is held at a parallel plate separation distance of 10 mm for 60 minutes at 25° C. and 50% relative humidity; (b) a puncture resistance of greater than about 6 kgf when the second glass layer is supported by (i) a 50 μm thick pressure-sensitive adhesive having an elastic modulus of less than 1 GPa and (ii) an approximately 100 μm thick polyethylene terephthalate layer having an elastic modulus of less than 10 GPa, and the first glass layer is loaded with a tungsten carbide ball having a 1 mm diameter.
