Smart glasses or as they are also called “smart glass” are able to change their transparency when exposed to electric current. These products are designed according to the latest TGE-electrochrom technology created by Technoglass Engineering. This technology is based on electrochromic organic substances belonging to the category of «smart» materials. Each device developed on the basis of this innovation externally is two optically transparent electrodes, fastened together around the perimeter (two films, two glasses with a special coating). The interelectrode space is filled with an electricchrome polymer composition that is in active state. During the voltage supply (up to two volts) of direct current, all elements (cathode and anode), which are part of the above composition, when the electrolysis process is a special color, thereby reducing the transmission of the composite and the entire device as a whole.
Despite high prices, smart windows begin to be in increasing demand among Russians due to their unique properties. Now Smart Glass is most often used in the manufacture of glass ceilings, office partitions, glass ceilings, trading windows and windows. These products can not only increase thermal insulation in the house, but also reduce air conditioning costs. In addition, smart glass does not need curtains or blinds.
