Adjustable Transparency Freedom
With PDLC smart films, experience the ultimate freedom in architectural design. Our innovative film technology allows you to instantly control privacy and light entering any space. Just press a button to adjust the transparency. Designed for any project, from residences to large commercial facilities, our PDLC smart films can be easily applied to existing glass. This means you can upgrade your space and flood it with natural light without incurring costs or undergoing large-scale renovations.
How Does Dynamic Transparency Control of PDLC Smart Window Film Work?
The core of our solution is the Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal (PDLC) technology, which offers instant privacy and precise transparency control.
• Power ON (Transparent): The current aligns the liquid crystal molecules, making the film optically clear and maximizing the transmission rate of natural light.
• Power OFF (Opaque): Crystal random scattering forms a frosted, opaque barrier that blocks the view while still allowing soft diffused light to pass through.
This seamless, silent and reliable switching function enables you to manage your project with unparalleled ease.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) - Dynamic Transparency Control
Q1: Does the smart film pdlc block all light when it is opaque?
A: No. When this film is in an opaque (Power OFF) state, it blocks visibility by scattering light, but it remains semi-transparent. This allows soft, diffused natural light to pass through, keeping the space bright and airy, unlike traditional blinds or curtains that would completely darken the room.
Q2: What will happen to the smart film pdlc if the power goes out?
A: In the event of a power outage, the film will automatically revert to its default opaque (private) state, ensuring your privacy is always maintained.
Q3: Can the smart film pdlc be used as a projection screen?
A: Yes. When the film is in an opaque (frosted) state, it functions as an excellent high-definition projection screen, adding dynamic and multi-functional element to educational or commercial environments such as classrooms and meeting rooms.
Q4: How long does it take to install pdlc smart film?
A: Installation time depends on the area and complexity:
Small residential projects (e.g., a single bathroom window): 1–2 hours.
Medium commercial projects (e.g., office partitions): 4–8 hours.
Large-scale projects (e.g., hotel lobbies or storefronts): 1–2 days.
Professional installers can complete most jobs in one day, with no downtime for the space (you can use the area immediately after installation).
Q5: What is the standard lead time for pdlc smart film orders?
The standard lead time varies by order type and quantity:
Stock sizes (standard dimensions/colors): 3–7 business days for production and packaging;
Custom sizes: 7–15 business days for production and packaging;
Bulk orders (≥100㎡): 10–20 business days for production and packaging to ensure quality control, with dedicated project management for on-time delivery.
