PRIVACY GLASS
FROM OPAQUE TO TRANSPARENT
Privacy smart glass or switchable glass is a glass or glazing whose light transmission properties are altered when voltage is applied.
In general, the glass changes from transparent to translucent and vice versa, changing from letting light pass through to blocking wavelengths of light and vice versa.

Technology
Why aren't other companies engaged in NCAP development and production?
The NCAP is protected by trade secrets, know-how as well as patents compared with the PDLC which is basically a public knowledge.
How does Smart Film work?
While “Off State” when no electrical power is applied on the smart film the light is scattered and the film looks 'milky'. While “On State” the light is transmitted directly and the film is transparent like a regular glass.
What is the different between 'Smart Film', 'Switchable Film' or 'Privacy Film'?
There are several sub-technologies and techniques related to manufacturing of PDLC film.
Our Smart film is based on NCAP PDLC which leads to the highest quality and reliable film.
PDLC - Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal known also as PDLC or Phase Separation method.
Processing Smart Film
What is the usual Smart Glass thickness?
Each glass can be 3,4,5,6,7 mm.
Can we use tempered glass to laminate Smart Films?
Can SFI’s Smart Films be laminated with a variety of glass types?
Yes, such as Toughen, Low E, Mirrored, Fire rated, etc.
What type of silicone can be used with Smart Film?
What is the recommended way to laminate Smart Films? EVA? PVB?
Glass laminators who plan to do glass lamination offer feel confused about the difference between PVB (Polyvinyl Butyral) and EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) glue film.
The machine type and process for laminate PVB and EVA are not the same.
Different types of glue film has different kinds of properties when it comes to adhesion level achieved during processing. Standards define the level of safety performance required for each use case from the final laminate.
PVB Advantages compare with EVA:
-
Strong impact resistance
-
Sound insulation
EVA Advantages compare with PVB:
-
Better adhesion with other insert (PET, Paper, Fabric)
-
Excellent moisture resistance (could be open edge installation)
-
Easy storing conditions
EVA film is the proper film rather than PVB when laminate the PDLC smart switchable glass. Since the PDLC film could not surfer higher temperature and pressure during lamination, smart glass production using EVA film can help prolong the guarantee life time of smart glass.
What is the right way to cut a film?
The right way to cut a film is to use a trimmer or Laser machine. If you do not have one, use a scissors.
What is the electrode style and your recommended ratio?
Are there any limitations or recommendations regarding the location and length of the conductive layer applied to the Smart Film?
Actually there is no one rule, it changes from one shape to another, also dependent on the type of Smart Film, high voltage/low voltage.
Does SFI provide training for processing Smart Film?
Does SFI provide training for processing Smart Film?
