Abstract
A vehicle window assembly includes first and second substrates substantially transparent to visible light and a seal with internal and external portions. The second substrate is disposed in a spaced apart relationship relative to the first substrate and defines a space therebetween. The internal portion is disposed in the space between the first and second substrates along at least part of peripheries thereof. The external portion is disposed external relative to space between the first and second substrates, has a substantially flexible construction, and substantially extends outward from the first and second substrates. The seal substantially inhibits at least one of water and oxygen from entering the space. A coupling agent is disposed between the first and second substrates, laminates the substrates together, and adheres the seal thereto. When disposed in a window opening, the external portion of the seal deflects against an edge of the opening.
