PVB Acoustic Laminated Glass Interlayer Sheet from Japan

Specialized poly(vinyl butyral) film sheet designed for noise-reduction in acoustic laminated glass used in vehicles and buildings. Its noncellular structure provides sound dampening when sandwiched between glass panes. Fits HTS 3920.91.00.00 as unreinforced PVB film, not the assembled glass product.

Import Tips

Include acoustic performance test reports to support PVB classification and distinguish from standard films

Ensure documentation shows import in sheet/roll form, not pre-laminated, to avoid glass tariff

Check for chemical modification notes; unmodified PVB stays here, modified may shift to 'Other'
