Looks like it.

Strengthened Glass:

ProCurve Glass Design, Inc. can provide additional strength to glass lites 
through a chemical strengthening process known as ion-exchange. The glass is 
submerged in a bath of potassium nitrate where the large alkali potassium ions 
exchange places with the smaller alkali sodium ions in the surface of the 
glass. Because chemically strengthened glass breaks in a pattern similar to 
annealed glass, it is not used by itself as a safety glazing material. It can 
be laminated for a variety of security, and transportation applications.

Mine has a slightly dark tint. Probably anything you have ever seen in a car 
window, they have a quote form,

Does safety glass come in tinted varieties?

Silicone and Polysulfide won’t adhere to acrylic or Lexan, so doubtful if it is 
that.

In your notes below your blog you mention Dow Corning 995, and I think it is 
795.

Seems like more people like that method nowadays.

 

Personally, I think you should get it made in safety glass, and be done with 
it. No more clouding, hazing, or coming apart.

Use the polyurethane that the pros use, or just call the Safelite guy and have 
him install it while you are watching your daughters soccer game.

My buddy had large panels made for his trawler, and It wasn’t that expensive.

See link below for photos and description - have removed both portlights, one 
was original (and failing) the other was replaced and secured with a highly 
elastic adhesive-sealant that seems an awful lot like RTV silicone.   My 
question is how best to identify the material, and if silicone how best to 
remove?  

If silicone, it actually seemed to secure the plexi-glass very well indeed.

Thanks for any advice!
