Abstract

Suspended particle display (SPD) can be controlled in transparency by applying a.c. voltage. We found new synthesized particles for SPD and methods for making them fine. Three new SPD particles showing different colors have been found: δ-herapathite, 1,10-phenanthroline-iodine complex and pyrazinophenanthroline-iodine complex as showing red, blue, purple, respectively. Recrystallization and ultrasonic treatment were found to make them fine crystals. Accordingly, transparency, stability for sedimentation and thermal stability were improved.
