New Technology for Single Pane Retrofit

Triton Systems has teamed with the University of Massachusetts Lowell, Fraunhofer Center for
Sustainable Energy Systems, Guardian Industries, SBA Materials, Solvay Specialty Polymers,
and Kuraray America to develop and demonstrate a high efficiency single pane window system
that will encourage replacement of conventional single pane windows at a faster rate with
significant energy savings. Triton’s Multifunctional Glazing System (MGS) combines
innovations in a low-e ECTFEC/ITO nanocomposite film, a low–k ordered mesoporous silica
innerlayer, and a PVB/ phyllosilicate nanocomposite edge seal with commercially available antireflective coated soda lime float glass. We believe this concept will achieve ARPA-E’s goal for
an affordable high efficiency single pane system having a thickness no larger than ¼ inch that
can replace conventional low efficiency 1/8 inch single panes.
