Problems solved by technology

One of the switchable glasses based on electrical response adjusts the direction of the liquid crystal through power on and off, and then adjusts the transmission, scattering or reflection of light. However, the current switchable glass based on electrical response relies on the alignment layer after power off. The effect makes the liquid crystal molecules rotate back to the original state, and there is a problem that the response speed is slow and it takes a long time to return to the initial state.

Abstract

The invention discloses reflective switchable glass based on electroresponse and a preparation method thereof. The switchable glass comprises two opposite light-transmitting substrates, the space between the two light-transmitting substrates is packaged to form an adjusting area, the adjusting area is filled with a liquid crystal mixture, the liquid crystal mixture comprises liquid crystal monomers, a photoinitiator and negative liquid crystals, the liquid crystal monomers can be polymerized to form a polymer network, and the negative liquid crystals are distributed in the polymer network. When no voltage is applied, the negative liquid crystals are arranged perpendicular to the light-transmitting substrates in a single domain, and visible light is transmitted. When voltages are applied, the negative liquid crystals are arranged parallel to the light-transmitting substrates in many domains, light scattering is enhanced, and the switchable glass is switched into a light scattering state from a light transmitting state. A power-on state is switched into a power-off state, the reflective switchable glass drives the negative liquid crystals to turn by depending on the restoration function of the polymer network, and the response speed is higher than that of traditional switchable glass; the polymer network is formed in the adjusting area, so that the transmissivity of the switchable glass is lower.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of construction and household living materials, and in particular to a trans-switchable glass based on electrical response and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] In the past, the light transmittance of the colored dimming glass made of colored glass or color film is greatly reduced after electrification, and the glass presents a very strong color, which affects the use effect and appearance of the dimming glass. [0003] In order to achieve the purpose of sunlight transmission and reflection on colored glass, the glass window is generally coated so that light of a certain wavelength in the light can be reflected or transmitted by the glass window. According to different reflective and light-transmitting requirements, films of different materials can be used. [0004] Existing car window glass has a coating layer on the glass surface, and the coating layer has a high blocking effect on visible...
