How does it work?

The Vela™ film is designed with a Pressure Sensitive “PS” adhesive on one side for a wet application and a Scratch Resistant “SR” Coating on the other side to ensure scratch-free installation and maintenance. Inside the film structure are two optically clear, sputtered transparent conductive layers of Indium Tin Oxide, “ITO” and in between these layers are the Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystals, “PDLC” which is the basis for the technology.

In the absence of an electrical current, the liquid crystal particles disperse randomly, scattering light which results in a translucent appearance.

Activating the Vela™ film introduces electricity to the film which causes the liquid crystal particles to orient in a manner that permits light to traverse the film and results in a transparent state.

Avery Dennison Vela™ is a retrofit window film that places a thin translucent film over indoor glass panes allowing for privacy, consumer engagement and erasable whiteboard applications. When switched-on, Vela™ film transforms to transparent, providing high optical clarity and visually opening up spaces. Vela™ delivers easy to operate, flexible functionality on demand.
