Muti - Function Switchable Smart Glass With Smart PDLC Film Covered
Switcable Film & Switchable Glass
Switchable Film is made of PDLC Film.PDLC (Polymer Dispersed Liguid
Crystal) is a light modulating material comprised of droplets of
liquid crystal uniformly dispersed in a transparency or
translucency,flexible plastic film.
When power off, coming visible light scatters through the PDLC, and
the film turns translucent;When power on, coming visible light
transmits thePDLC and the Film turns clear.

switchable smart glass film Function
Privacy protection. As most important function, smart glass can be
changed from
transparent to opaque via easy model ON & OFF.
Perfect function of safety. As smart glass is a special kind of
laminated glass, it has
all the good function of the laminated glass, mainly the security.
Blocks more than 99% UV rays ,avoiding fading in the room.
Sound proof. With excellent damping action, the smart glass is easy
to block the
noise.
Projection. Smart glass is a good projection screen. When it is
under suit light,the perfect projection appears.
Electrodes from a power supply are attached to the transparent
electrodes.
With no applied voltage, the liquid crystals are randomly arranged
in the droplets, resulting in scattering of light as it passes
through the smart window assembly. This results in the translucent,
"milky white" appearance.
When a voltage is applied to the electrodes, the electric field
formed between the two transparent electrodes on the glass causes
the liquid crystals to align, allowing light to pass through the
droplets with very little scattering and resulting in a transparent
state. The degree of transparency can be controlled by the applied
voltage. This is possible because at lower voltages, only a few of
the liquid crystals align completely in the electric field, so only
a small portion of the light passes through while most of the light
is scattered. As the voltage is increased, fewer liquid crystals
remain out of alignment, resulting in less light being scattered.
It is also possible to control the amount of light and heat passing
through, when tints and special inner layers are used.
Smart Glass is such a versatile solution. It can be used in
partition screens, windows, roof-lights and doors, security &
teller screens and even serve as an excellent HD projection screen.
Such is the beauty and flexibility of the product, architects and
designers continue to find new and innovative uses for it.
Switchable privacy glass products can be used in residential and
commercial buildings alike. As architects and designers explore the
boundaries of switchable privacy glass and turn conventional
perspectives of glass on their head, it is expected that the market
will continue to grow and expand into new and innovative uses of
privacy glass.
How does switchable privacy glass work?
Through the application of an electrical current the properties of
the glass change turning it from opaque to clear in less than 0.01
seconds. This transformation to opaque and back again can be
triggered from a range of wall switches, remote controls, movement
sensors, light sensors or timers, depending on each customer’s
individual needs. Numerous variations of privacy switchable glass
can be supplied including colour tinted, fire rated, double glazed,
curved and shaped privacy glass.
The original ON/OFF switchable smart glass is a laminated glass
panel with a polymer dispersed liquid crystal interlayer film
(PDLC). It offers instant privacy at the flick of a switch by
changing its state from transparent to opaque and vice versa
through a small electrical current.
Once activated, Electric Glass turns transparent for as long as the
transformer is running. When the electrical current stops, the
electric smart glass instantly returns to an opaque state.
