New glass technology has developed a relatively inexpensive
glass composite with the capacity to selectively block the sun’s heat-producing
infrared radiation as well as visible light. Buildings and homes equipped with
new “Smart Glass” could be more energy-efficient.
These new glass composite materials can be reversibly tinted
and can block infrared radiation while remaining transparent, allowing for
independent control over the transmittance of visible light and IR radiation.
Smart glass properties are altered when voltage, light or
heat is applied. Smart glass technologies include electrochromic, photochromic,
thermochromic, suspended particle, micro-blind and polymer dispersed liquid
crystal devices.
