Switchable PDLC Film Smart Glass Introduction
What’s switchable glass?
 |
Switchable glass is called smart glass,privacy glass is a new building decoration material that combines the smart film with glass. This laminated smart glass is an innovative opto-electrical laminated glass that composed of two layers of toughened glass on the outer side ,PDLC film in the middle and other composite materials to form a sandwich-like structure. All those materials stick together firmly through special lamination machinery. When powered off, it’s opaque; when power on, it turns transparent instantaneously. It’s a safety glass that act as smart projection scree too.A variety of glass can be used such as insulating glass, laminated glass, art glass, fireproof glass, etc.It is transparent when power on and opaque when power off,which can be widely used in room partitions,curtain walls,glass doors and windows.
5 reasons to use switchable glass ?
Explosion Proof:When our glass is broken by external forces, it will stay on the original frame so that the people nearby will not be injured.
Elevate Space: No need blinds,shapes,curtains and drapes,which requires washing regularly. Enjoy more open spaces as well as privacy. just with a flick of button, glass dims from transparent to opaque.
Save Cost:Though the curtains block out most of the light but the light still comes affecting temperature. Switch smart glass will save cost on air conditioning charge for its insulation and blocks of 99% UV light,reducing the temperature inside house and enjoy cooling.
Projection screen: it’s multi functional, use rear projection screen as home theater,or shopping window advertising,office and school projection when it’s opaque.
Make it Simple:Streamline the cleaning and maintenance associated with traditional windows and window coverings. With a mobile app to control clear and opaque.
Long life time: it can be used at least 15 years, it deserves invest for its modern convenience.
What is PDLC fim?
PDLC (Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal) film is the abbreviation of Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystals film which is basically three-dimensional structures composed by liquid crystal microdrops dispersed in a polymer matrix. Polymer-dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) films are useful in light control applications because they can be switched electrically between light scattering and transparent states.
The Structure of of PDLC film?
Flexible PET film with conductive material coated by high –tech manufacturing facility name “smart web” named ITO film, the percentage of conductive material and PET film quality is key factor make PDLC film of good quality outstanding with high transmittance, resistance to high voltage shocks. The liquid crystal is sandwiched between the 2 ITO film by lamination machine, this is how the PDLC film is made.
With current switch, the PDLC film is vaporous due to the disordered arrangement of liquid crystal molecules after turning off the power. On the contrary, when the power has opened, neatly organized molecules will make smart film present transparency.
PDLC film various color:blue,pink,green,black,coffe,milk white for option.
Till now, Uniteglass sister company have invested over 1 billion RMB on its R&D laboratory, manufacturing facilities ,business marketing to match the rapid growth and surge demand world-wide with its diversified markets applications comprising building construction, automotive, hospitality, healthcare, entertainment, subway and more. Following is the high-tech facility we invested in our dust-free workshop.
