Technology Comparison
Electrochromic Glass vs. PDLC
Understanding active glass technologies.
Electrochromic glass slowly tints to block solar heat and glare, taking minutes to transition. PDLC film instantly switches from clear to frosted in milliseconds, providing immediate privacy on demand.
| Feature | PDLC Smart Film | Electrochromic Glass |
|---|---|---|
| Transition Speed | Instant (< 0.1s) | Slow (5-15 minutes) |
| Privacy | Absolute (Frosted) | Partial (Tinted) |
| Retrofit Capability | Yes (Applied to existing glass) | No (Requires new glass) |
| Primary Benefit | On-demand privacy | Solar heat reduction |
