What is PDLC Film?
PDLC stands for Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal. It's a thin electroactive interlayer sandwiched between glass or applied as a self-adhesive film directly to existing glass surfaces.
In its off state, the liquid crystals inside are randomly scattered — scattering light and making the glass appear milky and opaque, providing complete visual privacy.
When low-voltage electricity is applied, the crystals instantly align in parallel — allowing light to pass through freely, making the glass crystal clear in just 50 milliseconds.
OFF State
Glass is opaque & private.
No power consumed.
ON State
Glass is crystal clear.
Full transparency.
