A dimensionally stable sealant and spacer strip comprising an elongated ribbon of deformable sealant enveloping and having embedded therein spacer means extending longitudinally of the ribbon of sealant. The thickness of the enveloping sealant extends beyond the spacer means in an amount sufficient to maintain a continuous sealing interface under applied compressive forces but insufficient to permit substantial distortion of the strip under such applied compressive forces.

A composite structure comprising first and second glass members having facing, generally parallel surfaces spaced generally a finite distance from each other and unitary means located around, and in adhering contact with, the peripheries of said surfaces for maintaining said glass members in spaced

A composite structure comprising first and second glass members having facing, generally parallel surfaces spaced generally a finite distance from each other and unitary means located around, and in adhering contact with, the peripheries of said surfaces for maintaining said glass members in spaced relationship and for effecting a seal in the space between said glass members, said unitary means consisting of elongated, deformable, continuous sealant means and an essentially continuous rigid undulating spacer means embedded in said sealant means and extending longitudinally the entire length of said sealant means, said unitary means being disposed within and bridging the space between said first and second glass members with said sealant means being of a substantially common cross sectional configuration and having substantially flat, substantially parallel, opposed surfaces in adhesive engagement with said facing surfaces, said unitary means having sufficient strength in the plane normal to said facing surfaces to maintain said first and second members at a generally finite distance from each other with said spacer means out of contact with said first and second glass members and further including a desiccant within the matrix of the sealant means facing the space between said glass members.
