SmartGlass

 

LC SmartGlass offers privacy on demand at the flick of a switch matching the criteria of the design brief entirely. All LC SmartGlass panels are bespoke manufactured using a lamination process which encapsulates a PDLC film between 2 or more glass sheets. Using a minute electrical current, users can immediately switch the LC SmartGlass from clear to private (opaque) and vice versa.Various configurations can be supplied including colour tinted, fire rated, double glazed, curved and shaped.
Curious about how it works?
When the electrical supply is switched on, the liquid crystal molecules align and incident light passes through and the LC SmartGlass panel instantly clears.
When the power is switched off the liquid crystal molecules are randomly oriented scattering light and the LC SmartGlass becomes opaque. via: smartglass
