Isoclima S.p.A. To Showcase Its New SPD-Smart CromaLite Glass at Major Trade Shows Beginning This Month.PADUA, Italy & WOODBURY, N.Y. -- Isoclima S.p.A., a licensee of Research Frontiers Incorporated (Nasdaq: REFR REFR Rare and Exotic Feline Registry ), announced today that it will feature its CromaLite[TM] brand of SPD-SmartGlass[TM] at two upcoming trade shows in Europe. Isoclima's CromaLite brand SPD-Smart products are for a variety of smart glass applications including smart windows for the global architectural, marine and automotive markets. At the heart of CromaLite smart glass is next-generation SPD (Serial Presence Detect) The method used by DIMM memory modules to communicate their capacity and features to the computer. Data such as manufacturer, size, speed, voltage and row and column addresses are stored in an EEPROM chip on the module. light-control film invented by Research Frontiers. When integrated with glass or plastic panels, SPD-Smart film gives users the ability to rapidly, precisely and uniformly control the amount if light passing through products such as windows, skylights and sunroofs. This is a major achievement over "electrochromic e·lec·tro·chro·mic adj. Of or relating to a substance that changes color or transparency when subjected to charged electrodes, as in the liquid crystal display of many calculators. " light-control technology, which can be extremely slow and relies on electrochemical electrochemical /elec·tro·chem·i·cal/ (-kem´i-k'l) pertaining to interaction or interconversion of chemical and electrical energies. e·lec·tro·chem·i·cal adj. reactions to induce a color change.

To manufacture its CromaLite products, Isoclima is now purchasing the basic chemicals from Research Frontiers' licensee Dainippon Ink & Chemicals Incorporated (DIC DIC diffuse intravascular coagulation; disseminated intravascular coagulation. DIC abbr. disseminated intravascular coagulation Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) ), one of the world's leading diversified chemical companies. Isoclima then processes these chemicals and coats them into SPD-Smart film in Italy. This film can then be shipped by Isoclima to its glass fabrication fabrication (fab´rikā´sh n the construction or making of a restoration. facilities in Europe or North America North America, third largest continent (1990 est. pop. 365,000,000), c.9,400,000 sq mi (24,346,000 sq km), the northern of the two continents of the Western Hemisphere. to produce CromaLite laminated and insulated in·su·late tr.v. in·su·lat·ed, in·su·lat·ing, in·su·lates 1.

The CromaLite SPD-SmartGlass being featured measures 0.8 x 2.5 meters (31.5 x 98.4 inches) and will be the darkest switchable glazing of any type ever exhibited publicly for architectural and marine window applications. The SPD film itself can block over 99.4% of visible light, yet it can be optically clear when desired. When SPD film is combined with glass or plastic to form a window or other end-products, the light blockage blockage of intestine, urethra, etc. See obstruction under anatomical location, e.g. intestinal, urethral. blockage Wax, see there can be even greater. Users can instantly and precisely control how much light, glare and heat passes through the glass. "We are extremely pleased with the optical quality and operating performance of our CromaLite smart glass," said Alberto Bertolini, General Director of Isoclima. "Our exhibiting at these upcoming trade shows marks the start of an accelerating marketing campaign to grow what we believe will be very strong sales of CromaLite across numerous applications. Our plans include coating SPD film up to 1.2 meters wide and we expect that SPD light-control technology and our CromaLite products will have a strategic importance in the architectural, automotive, marine and aerospace industries." "It is highly noteworthy that Isoclima is now launching the marketing program for its CromaLite smart glass," said Joseph M. Harary, President of Research Frontiers who recently toured Isoclima's Padua, Italy facilities and will be visiting their Mexicali, Mexico facilities later this month. "Isoclima's glazing products have a very strong reputation globally in the architectural and transportation industries. In the marine industry, for example, the company's glazing products have achieved 30-40% penetration of the European maxi-yacht market (100+ meters in length), and the company has a 70-80% share of all yacht glass supplied to Italian shipyards, one of the world's largest shipbuilding regions." Isoclima will first exhibit its CromaLite smart glass from October 3-6, 2007 at Vitrum 2007, the international trade fair for machinery, equipment and systems for the processing of flat and hollow glass. Vitrum 2007 will be held at Fiera Milano's new exhibition complex in Milan and attracts visitors across the world. Isoclima's booth will be located in Pavilion 24, stand E22 More information about Vitrum 2007 can be found at http://www.vitrum-milano.it.
