Product Overview

The Smart Film (PDLC Film/Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal Dimming Film) Series from Westglass is a high-tech optical film leveraging the electric field response of liquid crystal molecules. By hermetically encapsulating liquid crystal polymer between two transparent conductive films, it forms a unique laminated structure for intelligent electric control of light transmittance:

l   Unpowered State: 

Liquid crystal molecules arrange randomly, creating a light-scattering layer with transmittance below 5%. This uniform milky frosted effect ensures robust privacy protection.

l   Powered State:

Driven by a safe voltage, molecules align orderly within 0.2 seconds, achieving up to 91% transmittance to restore natural glass clarity.
