PDLC Smart Dimming Film

Polymer-dispersed liquid crystal film — transparent when powered on, frosted when off. Stepless dimming by voltage.

Product introduction

PDLC technology & working principle

PDLC technology & working principle

PDLC smart dimming film is formed by coating liquid crystal polymer between flexible ITO conductive films. Voltage controls LC alignment: power on aligns molecules for transparency; power off scatters light for a frosted privacy state. Transmittance can be steplessly adjusted by voltage.
