Abstract
Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal(PDLC) is a class of electroscattering materials exhibiting very promising properties for display device app lications. For the last few years, the electrooptical properties of PD LC have improved drastically to use projection device with high bright ness. We have studied stability of PDLC films which formed by ultravio let initiated photopolymerization and liquid crystal phase separation. We evaluated several stability items in PDLC films such as running an d environment test, accelerated life time at low and elevated temperat ure, voltage holding ratio(VHR) variations according to UV exposing ti me and temperature.
