NEDO · Toray Industries Develops Innovative Thermal Insulation Film – High Transparency and High Level Thermal Insulation

Toray Industries has developed a thermal barrier film that combines transparency comparable to glass and the world’s highest level of thermal insulation.

The heat-Selectively cut infrared rays that cause temperature rise in sunlight

39% compared to normal clear glass,

11% compared with commercially available high performance / transparent thermal barrier film

We were able to confirm the cooling load reduction effect of

By sticking to windows etc. of buildings, we aim to realize energy saving of air conditioning power and aim to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

2. The result of this time

(1) selective reflection of light by innovative layer arrangement design

Thickness of each layer of film and design of material

Introduced innovative layer sequence design

Suppresses reflection of visible light

Improve infrared cut performance only

The world’s highest level of thermal barrier achieved

(2) High precision laminating technology of film

Device design based on Toray’s original flow simulation

Combining ultra-high precision film forming process

Even with a 1 nm layer thickness, it is possible to control film uniformly

We also offer large area heat shield film which can also correspond to window glass of office building

(3) Confirmation of effect by developed heat shielding film

Heat shielding film developed this time

Environmental Harmony Experiment Building at Chubu Center of National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology

Heat shock test using a new measurement method to extract components caused by solar radiation from the cooling load

as a result,

39% of normal clear glass,

11% compared with commercially available high performance / transparent thermal barrier film

We confirmed the effect of cooling load reduction.
