Abstract

See full text

The insulated glass unit (IGU) of the present disclosure includes two or more glass panels that are spaced apart in a parallel arrangement. The panes define an interior space that is filled with air or other suitable gas, a fluid or liquid, or a vacuum. The IGU is encapsulated to provide a water-tight seal to prevent or minimize water or particles from migrating into the interior space, or to prevent or minimize heat loss. A spacer with a desiccant can be in the interior space. To preserve the structural integrity of the glass panels during encapsulation, a second spacer is placed between the glass panes. The second spacer can be T-shaped so that a narrowed body portion fits between the glass panes. The second spacer can also have a groove therein for storing adhesive and/or desiccant.
