This invention is directed to a plastic composite comprising color images
printed onto a polymeric support film using UV ink. The polymeric support
film layer may be bonded to a polymeric film selected from the group
consisting of aliphatic polyurethane and ethyl vinyl acetate. The
combined laminate can then optionally be disposed between two layers of
plasticized PVB, forming the plastic composite. The plastic composite can
then be placed between two sheets of glass forming the final laminated
glass product. Preferably, when the UV image is printed on the polymeric
support film, the image is only partially cured by a UV lamp. After the
polymeric support film is contacted with the polymeric film, with the
partially cured UV image therebetween, the laminate is exposed to a
second UV lamp operating at full power so as to completely cure the UV
image.
