Afak Group Glass® is composed of a thin film interlayer of liquid crystals dispersed in a polymer matrix (PDLCs) laminated between two plastic substrates coated on the inner face with a thin layer of conductive material. 

Afak Group Glass® panels contain a film of dispersed liquid crystal molecules in a polymer matrix pressed between two glass sheets.

By applying a small electrical current, its state can change from opaque to transparent and vice versa. 

When an electrical current activates the panel, the liquid crystal molecules instantly align.

EVA layer is used to bond the thin film with the glass

This positioning allows light to pass through, and your glass becomes transparent. When the current is disconnected, the molecules immediately disarrange for instantaneous and total privacy.

This ingenious smart glass technology allows you to switch back and forth between opaque glass and a transparent view, all through a simple electrical current.

1 Glass

Choose the desired thickness, type, shape, and color.

2 EVA

A cross-linked transparent sheet which acts as a bond between the glass and ITO-PET laminate.

3 ITO-PET

A transparent conductive film of only a few microns in thickness.

4 Liquid Crystal Polymer Matrix

A pool of randomly orientated liquid crystal molecules. When stimulated with electrical current, the liquid crystal molecules align themselves allowing incident light to pass through, thus the glass becomes clear.
