What is energized glass?
In the comedy movie, there is a hilarious section where the usually cold and domineering president walks into the office, and the transparent glass slowly turns into an opaque white. The employees thought that the boss was chasing ups and downs, and the king of heaven was breaking.
Unexpectedly, because of a malfunction, the glass suddenly became transparent, and the employees all saw the cold, domineering president pulling his feet while watching the earthy video, and suddenly suffocated his stomach until his stomach hurts.
Its principle is a bit complicated and involves some knowledge of physics and chemistry. Now I will explain it to you (Science and Engineering Men’s Commentary). If you find it troublesome, you can skip it directly.
The principle of energized glass is to compound the liquid crystal film between two layers of glass and form a high-tech special photoelectric glass after high-temperature gluing. When the power is off, the molecules in the liquid crystal film are arranged disorderly, light cannot pass through, and it looks like an opaque atomized state. After being energized, the different voltages between the two layers of glass will make the liquid crystal molecules arranged in an orderly manner, allowing light to pass through and appear transparent.
The biggest feature of energized glass is that it can effectively protect privacy, so common engineering decorations, such as company offices, hotel rooms, hospital clinics, and so on.
Now, with the popularity of simple styles, energized glass is slowly being introduced into home decoration design.
What other anti-sky features?
The energized glass can not only switch between transparent and opaque to protect privacy but also has many other anti-sky functions.
Projection function
After power off, the energized glass is uniformly white and can be used as a projection screen. Installed in the living room or bedroom, you can not only protect privacy, but you can also watch movies, entertainment, and protection of each other without delay.
UV filter
The energized glass can completely shield the ultraviolet rays and effectively prevent the damage caused by the ultraviolet rays to the skin. Installed in the bathroom, it can also protect the photosensitive ingredients in skincare products.
Normal noise reduction
Compared with ordinary glass, the energized glass adopts glued double-layer glass, which has a strong sound insulation effect and can effectively isolate noise when installed in the kitchen and bathroom.
How to use it in home improvement?
Due to the high housing prices, many units do not have balconies, kitchens and bathrooms are also completely out of daylight, and even some strange flat-shaped units have no windows in the living room and dining room.
When the space is insufficient, it is more necessary to enhance the lighting and visual openness, and it is necessary to open windows indoors. To protect privacy, more and more energized glass is introduced into the home decoration scene.
bathroom
A bathroom toilet is an environment that needs to ensure privacy, and people generally don’t want to know what others do in the bathroom. However, many bathrooms have the problem of insufficient lighting and the shortcomings of small and cramped spaces.
It is a good solution to use energized glass as a partition or window in the bathroom. When taking a bath or using the toilet, the power is cut off and the glass is atomized to protect privacy.
When lighting is needed, or when the room is open, disconnect the power supply. The lighting from other spaces helps the bathroom increase lighting and enhance the openness of the field of vision.
Even if you remove the entire bathroom wall and make a floor-to-ceiling window or a glass partition wall, as long as you use energized glass, you can still try it boldly.
The energized glass is used in ordinary home decoration, and there is no need to worry about the bathtub facing the window. As long as the power is turned off and the glass is fogged, nothing can be seen outside.
Sunroom
Many owners like the sunroom, and using the terrace space to build a small flower room for people to relax is a thing that greatly improves the quality of life.
In fact, in summer, the glass ceiling cannot provide shade, which will cause overheating problems. Installing an energized glass ceiling can no longer be troubled by this trouble.
After being atomized, it will not overheat due to direct sunlight, and the energized glass can also completely shield ultraviolet rays, and you will not worry about getting sunburned when you move in the sun room.
bedroom
Indoor windows can not only increase daylighting, but also increase the sense of interior design by opening windows. Especially in the popular minimalist style, it can greatly enhance the sense of space art.
You can also use this glass as a projection screen to make full use of the wall space.
study
Open windows in the study are also a popular Internet celebrity model, especially the opening between the study and the living room will make the space between the living room and the study more visually, and family members working in the study and relaxing in the living room will also have more interaction.
Because of the different regional functions, the complete connection between the living room and the study will also cause problems. At this time, electrified glass is required to isolate the two spaces.
The energized glass not only has the visual isolation function, but also can be soundproof, so that no matter how intense the gun battle in the movie in the living room, it will not affect the serious work in the study.
kitchen
The kitchen window is very hot, but the homeowners who have opened the window are worried about one problem-after the window is opened, the contents of the kitchen are clear, a little lazy, and the unwashed dishes and the uncleaned cooking table can be clearly seen. Chu.
When the kitchen is messed up, the whole room appears to be messy, making people feel irritable. The use of energized glass can solve this embarrassment.
After the power is off, the glass is atomized, but it does not completely isolate the light. The living room can still be used for lighting, but the messy kitchen is hidden behind the glass, so there is no need to worry about not being cleaned up in time.
What issues need to be considered when you want to do it for the home?
The above-mentioned benefits of energized glass for a long time, and the precautions for energized glass should be explained clearly to everyone.
①The first is energized glass, the price is high, about 2-3 times that of glass.
②Electrified glass, in order to realize the switch between transparent and opaque, it is necessary to reserve a power supply and a switch, which must be determined before the installation of water and electricity.
③Because of the atomization effect of power failure, there is no need to worry about the embarrassment of power failure, even if the power is suddenly cut off, there is no need to worry about revealing privacy.
④Temperature has a certain influence on the effect of power-off glass. The active temperature of the liquid crystal film is (between minus 20°C and 60°C), and both overcooling and overheating will cause the liquid crystal film to inactivate.
In many countries, even if the thermal protection temperature of the external unit of the air conditioner is 60°C, the air conditioner is fine, and there is no problem with the energized glass.
However, in some cold northern regions, such as the Northeast, due to the cold outdoor temperature, the energized glass may be inactivated, so it is not recommended to install it as outdoor window glass.
⑤ The installation of energized glass is usually in tooling. It is not long after the introduction of home improvement design, and an experienced electrician is required to install it, or directly contact the manufacturer for installation.
After talking for a long time, although energized glass is beautiful and convenient, it is not irreplaceable. Traditional gauze curtains and blinds can be replaced.
Both blinds and screens need to be switched manually, and they are easy to accumulate dust, inconvenient to operate, and troublesome to clean. In terms of price, these two options are indeed more close to the people, and do not require pre-wiring. The specific options still need to be combined with their own circumstances.
Electrified glass can create a more concise and technological design style. It is also easier to clean, suitable for owners with ample budget and higher aesthetic requirements.
