About this book
Firsthand insights into the current and future technology and large-scale applications of color- and opacity-changing optical materials
Chromogenics delivers a comprehensive overview of the industry-relevant scientific background of chromogenics and provides details on successful manufacturing techniques for the scalable fabrication of products, enabling readers to apply chromogenic materials in billion-dollar market segments such as the car industry (rear-view mirrors) and building and construction industries (self-tinting windows), as well as for individual end-user products such as sunglasses.
This work includes contributions from developers of chromogenic products from leading companies and industry-near research institutions such as Fraunhofer, Merck, Pleotint, and Gentex, Chromogenics explores topics including:
- Electrochromics (both inorganic and polymeric), thermochromics, and suspended particle devices (SPD)
- Encapsulated pigment devices, specific liquid crystals, and polymer dispersed liquid crystals (PDLC)
- Vacuum web coaters and their large-area coatings, transparent electronic conductors, sputter coating processes, and pyrolytic doped tin oxide
- Commercial technologies including pyrolytic deposition, magnetron sputtering, slot die coating, and doctor blade coating
- Products such as switchable self-dimming mirrors and switchable glazing for glare reduction, solar energy control, and privacy glazing
Presenting state-of-the-art research in the field along with future outlooks, Chromogenics is an essential reference on the subject for materials scientists, physical chemists, applied physicists, and engineering scientists in industry.
