This groundbreaking innovation is what empowers our glass and film to instantly switch between transparent and opaque states, offering you unparalleled control and versatility.

How PDLC Technology Brings Spaces to Life:

• The Smart Core:

  Our intelligent films are meticulously engineered with millions of liquid crystal molecules, uniformly dispersed within a special polymer matrix. This brilliant composite material is then carefully sandwiched between two layers of transparent conductive film (typically ITO) and protective PET film.

• The “Off” State (Instant Privacy):

  When there’s no electric current flowing, these tiny liquid crystal molecules are scattered randomly, like a bustling crowd. This disarray causes them to scatter incoming light, making the smart glass or film appear frosted or opaque – instantly giving you the privacy you need. In this state, visible light transmission is significantly reduced (typically less than 50%), creating a serene, private ambiance.

• The “On” State (Crystal Clarity):

  Simply apply a low voltage alternating current (like 60V AC), and watch the transformation! An electric field instantly aligns all the liquid crystal molecules into perfect parallel formation. This alignment allows light to pass straight through, rendering the smart glass or film beautifully transparent. In this “on” state, visible light transmission can reach an impressive 91%, flooding your space with natural light and offering crystal clear views.

Key Advantages of Our PDLC Technology:

• Lightning Fast Switching: Our PDLC technology boasts incredible response times – less than 10 milliseconds to go from opaque to transparent, and under 200 milliseconds to switch back. It’s truly instantaneous.

• Remarkably Energy Efficient: Designed with sustainability in mind, our solutions consume very little power (e.g., <4W/m² or <5W/m²), making them a smart choice for both your wallet and the planet.

• Superior UV Protection: The inherent properties of PDLC film provide exceptional UV blocking (>=99%), offering robust protection for your interiors from harmful solar radiation and preventing furniture from fading.

• Enhanced Comfort: The multi layered structure of our smart glass not only improves thermal insulation, keeping your space comfortable year round by reducing heat transfer, but also provides significant sound dampening (approximately 35dB), creating quieter, more peaceful environments.

• Built to Last: Engineered for incredible longevity, our products are designed to withstand millions of switching cycles and offer extended operational lifespans (e.g., over 80,000 hours), ensuring years of reliable performance.

By integrating these advanced principles, Beyond Smart Glass delivers intelligent solutions that are not just highly functional and efficient, but also contribute beautifully to modern, dynamic architectural and design aesthetics.
