We supply massive rolls intelligent film and custom size ones with bus-bars to the glass processed factories which are looking to produce your own switchable smart glass.
Different thickness and custom size high quality intelligent glass is available for heat strength glass, low-iron glass or gray glass.
Self-adhesive smart film can be easily installed onto existing glass. Intelligent film is an ideal solution for both commercial and residential applications on budget.
Transformer can be integrated with various controls as you like:remote contol,wall switch control,dimmer control,wifi-App control,etc.
How does PDLC smart glass work?
With no applied voltage, the liquid crystals are randomly oriented and scatter the light which enters. When an electrical signal is applied, the liquid crystals orient themselves parallel to each other, allowing light through.
How much light does PDLC glass transmit?
When not connected to a voltage, typically the transmittance can be as low as 2%. When connected to a voltage, it can be up to 80%, but this maximum value varies from manufacturer to manufacturer.
What is the power consumption of smart glass/film?
Smart glass/film consumes less than 5W/sqm.
Does PDLC smart glass become opaque?
No, the correct term is translucent, since light still gets through, albeit scattered in many directions. The glass would be opaque only if the light was blocked or absorbed.
Why does PDLC glass scatter light?
The liquid crystals change their refractive index in relation to the isotropically transparent polymer in which they are immersed, thereby creating multiple step boundaries throughout the PDLC.
It is this change in refractive index at each boundary which causes light to change course. Since the PDLC material contains millions of liquid crystals, each with a boundary facing a slightly different way, the light is scattered in many directions.
The net effect is to hide whatever is behind the PDLC smart glass.
