Abstract:
This invention relates to UV-protected electrochromic solutions suitable for use in electrochromic devices and containing at least one oxidizable substance RED1 and at least one reducible substance OX2 linked by a bridging group and a UV absorber component.
Abstract:
In the novel electrochromic system comprising at least one oxidizable substance RED1 and at least one reducible substance OX2, each of which, accompanied by an increase in the absorbance in the visible region of the spectrum, is converted from a weakly colored or colorless form into a colored form wherein the reciprocal conversion of oxidized and reducible form takes place by a &sgr; bond being broken or formed, respectively.
Abstract:
The novel electrochromic system comprises at least one reducible and at least one oxidizable substance OX2 and RED1 respectively, which are linked with one another via a bridge member, and is outstandingly suitable for use in an electrochromic device.
Abstract:
Electrochromic display devices, whose plates having conductive coatings are subdivided into segments which are electrically separated from one another, can be contacted individually and, between the plates, contain a solvent, specific electrochromic substances and optionally conductive salts, are distinguished by excellent edge definition and high contrast.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for the production of cyanine dyes with their methine chain showing group (M) and the charge compensation occuring by linked end groups through transformation of cationic cyanine dyes comprising group (D) with CH-acid compounds of the following formula (I) B.sub.1 --CH.sub.2 --B.sub.2 in an inert solvent, the substituents having the significance given in the description. ##STR1##
