HI-TECH CERAMIC IR SHIELD is a series of advanced car window sun control films designed to significantly reduce heat, block UV rays, and cut glare for a cooler, safer, and more comfortable driving experience, featuring high Infrared (IR) rejection and excellent visibility, often using nano-particle technology for durable protection against heat and fading. They come in different VLT (Visible Light Transmission) levels, like 70% for windshields, and offer benefits like reduced AC load, enhanced security, and shatter resistance.
Key Features & Benefits:
- High Heat Rejection: Blocks significant infrared radiation, keeping car interiors cooler.
- UV Protection: Blocks 99% of harmful UV rays, preventing interior fading and skin damage.
- Anti-Glare: Reduces glare from sun and headlights for safer driving.
- Excellent Clarity: Maintains clear visibility while reducing heat and glare.
- Enhanced Safety: Adds a layer to the glass, holding fragments together if shattered.
- Energy Saving: Reduces the load on your car’s air conditioning system.
Types:
- CERAMIC IR SHIELD: Often for windshields, known for high IR rejection (e.g., 99%) and 70% VLT.
- CERAMIC IR SHIELD: For side windows, with specifications like 99% UV rejection and 54% Total Solar Heat Rejection (TSER).
How it Works:
These films use a laminate construction with dyed film and specialized organometallic nano-particles (like NIR blocking ones) to selectively block heat-causing infrared light while allowing clear vision, explains Square 2 Graphics and Hi-Tech Films.
