PDLC
PDLC (Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal) is a material that allows turning spaces with transparent glasses into totally private areas. Just by applying an electrical current, the molecules inside the liquid crystal align so that light can travel through it. Then, when the current is interrupted, the molecules distribute randomly inside the glass to provide instant privacy.
This technology can be fully integrated in automated systems, as well as be controlled by means of a remote, smartphone or tablet.
Laminated PDLC is suitable for a wide range of applications, both architectural and decorative.
These are the main benefits of the PDLC offered by i-ON by Pujol:
Privacy
While in resting mode, PDLC is a material that turns the glass opaque to grant privacy. When the glass is activated with electricity, an excellent level of transparency can be enjoyed.
Acoustic insulation
The great sound insulation obtained by combination with Evalam lamination turns the PDLC laminated glass from i-ON by Pujol into the most appropriate solution for hotels, housing and offices.
Thermal insulation
Glass laminated with film by i-ON by Pujol improves thermal comfort and grants an adequate environment regardless of the season of the year.
Exterior use
Laminated PDLC from i-ON by Pujol complies with every applicable regulation according to ECC law on glazing construction in exterior and interior spaces.
Innovation
Thanks to the PDLC from i-ON by Pujol, designers, architects, glass makers and programmers can develop new creative projects aimed to different actions, ranging from sales to an improvement in life quality or comfort.
Durability
Independent laboratories certify more than 100,000 on/off cycles for this kind of glass, and thus guarantee a long lifespan for the product.
ECO-friendly
Its low power consumption turns PDLC from i-ON by Pujol into a sustainable product with a low environmental impact.
Integration with automated systems
The glass can be fully integrated into automated systems and connected to movement sensors, phones, tablets, etc. This makes for an easy adaptation to the necessities and lifestyle of each user.
These are the main applications of the PDLC offered by i-ON by Pujol:
Stores
PDLC’s versatility makes it a product suitable to be installed in stores. Window displays turn into advertising campaigns running 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
Hospitality industry
Hotels, hospitality and wellness spaces make use of the benefits of PDLC to separate different environments without giving up on natural light and providing their clients a plus of exclusiveness. They also provide privacy in places where confidentiality and peacefulness are supposed to be at core, such as private rooms, VIP areas, saunas, pools or massage rooms.
Housing
It offers privacy and eliminates the need to install blinds or curtains on windows. It can also be applied to shower screens or glass walls.
Bathroom
PDLC applied to bathroom glass walls provides instant privacy and makes the spaces look wider when in transparent mode. This material shows a high resistance to humidity and prevents delamination, so it is a perfect product for this kind of project.
Education
Using PDLC on windows and walls improves the learning environment. It provides the student with cozy and open spaces where they can develop all their abilities. Also, a very luminous classroom can be turned into a projection room to perform educational activities.
Health services
The use of PDLC makes curtains, blinds and roller blinds unnecessary, and thus, hygiene inside the rooms improves significantly. All the alternatives are sources of infection because their surfaces can accumulate virus and bacteria in great quantities. Glass is much easier to clean and thus, prevents the possibility of infections. This is the ideal option for intensive care units, newborn rooms, operating rooms or emergency areas.
Advertising
It makes it possible to design dynamic window displays on which advertisements can be projected. Also, due to its high resistance, it can be used to make temporary architecture or projects on the street.
Offices
Our PDLC can be laminated to make separating glass walls, separate offices or meeting rooms, providing full privacy to the people inside. It also offers a modern look, both sober and fashionable, to the projects there developed.
TURNING ON
The liquid glass molecules align and allow the passage of light.
TURNING OFF
The liquid glass molecules distribute randomly, disperse the light and turn the glass opaque.
