Smart film revolutionizes the shielding industry thanks to its innovative solutions. One of the biggest advantages, without a doubt, is that you don't need to replace the window, as you can achieve shading without it, making it a truly wallet-friendly option. Its transparency can be changed from opalescent to translucent or vica versa at will. The layer can be scaled freely, so tailored solutions can be created.
Smart film enjoys great popularity mainly because it is possible to create private sphere without serious intervention and costs. You can easily create enclosed spaces by controlling the transparency of the glass surface. And if you want a free view again, you can do it with the click of a button. Putting a glass film on a window is a good decision in several ways.
The use of smart film is also useful for the protection of furniture, as it will be protected from the harmful effects of solar radiation. Thus, it is possible to avoid fading of images and furniture and slowing down their aging process.
Nowadays, we hear a lot about the harmful effects of UV and infrared radiation, so we don't have to show anyone how negative it can have on the skin. Digital film can filter harmful infrared and UV radiation, so you can keep yourself, your family members, friends or colleagues safe even near the window.
Smart foil is also a good investment from an energy-saving point of view, as it reduces the heat dissipation of glass. It also saves 15% of cooling and heating costs and saves 20-25% of lighting costs.
The smart film is based on digital shading technology, which allows the transparency of the shading film to be changed from opalescent to translucent at will when voltage is applied. The technology is called Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal, that is, it is known as PDLC.
When the digital film is energized, an electric field is formed between the ITO layers, which causes the liquid crystal molecules to be arranged in one direction so that you can see through the foil. When turned off, the liquid crystal molecules are disordered, so it is impossible to see through the foil.
The advantages of smart film and its versatility in its usability are indisputable. If the decision has been made to put a smart window film on the glass surface, then it is necessary to decide whether it should be a standard or a premium film. The two types are similar in many respects, but there are fundamental differences between them.
However, there are also differences in clarity, transparency and viewing angle between the two types.
Thickness:
The standard smart film is 0.4 mm wide and the premium film is 0.5mm wide.
Light transmittance:
The standard digital film transmits about 81% of the light when it is on, i.e. transparent, and about 65% when it is off, i.e. opal. For premium smart film, this value is approximately 83% when turned on and 55% when turned off.
Transparency:
Transparency is approximately 93% for standard foil and 95% for premium foil.
Consumption:
The standard digital film consumes 5W/M2 when turned on and the premium foil consumes 4.5 W/m2.
Operating temperature:
The operating temperature of the standard film is from minus 10 to plus 45 degrees Celsius. In contrast, premium digital foil can work from minus 20 to plus 70 degrees.
Service life:
The standard smart film has a lifespan of 70,000 hours, and the premium foil has 80,000 hours.
Warranty:
Both films come with a warranty of one year for standard smart film and two years warranty for premium foil
