The company is not afraid to showcase the drawbacks of purchasing a low-quality switchable smart film and has also published an article about the Important details people should know about switchable film and glass. As a person with no knowledge about this technology, the article surely helps identify perfect use cases for these products to enhance their overall life.

Below are some of the critical factors highlighted by the company that many manufacturers generally don't want users to know:

1. Haze

The company revealed that there are chances for Smart Glass and Smart Film to go clear to opaque in a move of a switch, giving privacy on need. However, when the glass is shifted to clear, users can notice a slight haze.

PriWatt™ Film holds the shortest haze level (2.6%) on the market today; however, under specific light conditions, the glass will reflect, they added. This is more noticeable when the glass is perceived from a particular angle.

2. Lighting Conditions

Under normal lighting conditions, privacy glass takes advantage of optimum clarity. Users can use these high-quality stocks haze if a tiny amount of moisture is a concern for them. The company also suggests people take their recommendations in multiple ways to diminish them.

3. Smart Film Is Designed for Indoor Use Only.

Although the intelligent film designed by Smart Glass technology is made from the best materials available, it still is an electric device. Due to this, it is prone to damages if exposed to excessive moisture. That is why the company prohibits outdoor usage. Their privacy film can be used indoors in moisture-prone areas and cleaned with liquid. But, users have to make sure the edges of the film are covered with silicone to prevent damage and water penetration, the company recommended.

4. Silicone

Using any acidic silicone or unknown chemical components over these glasses can cause permanent damage and Smart Film delamination. The company recommends using only neutral cure (non-acidic) silicone sealants.

5. Busbars

According to Smart Glass Technology, the busbar area is the most delicate part of the film as it is where all the wires are connected. If it's damaged, the film will no longer switch from clear to frosted, and it will always be in the frosted state. So, users buying these should pay extra attention to this area and handle it with care.

6. Yellowing

Some smart films will slowly discolor due to continuous exposure to UV rays and become yellowish. However, they also recommend users with high-quality PDLC films like PriWatt, that have an additional UV protective layer. These PriWatt Films do not become yellowish and will always look clear.

7. Delamination

With time low-quality smart film can become delaminated due to the peeling strength of the film. A high-quality film like PriWatt comes with a solid PDLC glue that keeps the layers of the film firmly aligned. In comparison, low-quality films have poor adhesiveness and peel apart even when in storage.

8. Smart Film Can Be Scratched

Just like plastic, general smart films can be scratched by dogs, cats, or even children. If the user is installing the privacy film on a window or door access to their pet or young children, it can eventually damage. So, the company recommends users place a protective liner over the top of the film to protect it from scratches.
