Abstract

The invention relates to an electrooptical system which between two electrode layers contains a PDLC film comprising a liquid crystal mixture forming microdroplets in an optically isotropic, transparent polymer matrix, characterized in that the precursor of the PDLC film comprises: a) 50-90 wt.% of a liquid crystal mixture, b) 15-49.5 wt.% of the precursor of the polymer matrix at least comprising a component A containing between 40-95 wt.% of one or more monofunctional monomers of the ene-type, a component B containing between 1-13 wt.% of one or more at least difunctional monomers of the ene-type, a component C containing between 1-30 wt.% of one or more mono-, di- or multifunctional oligomers of the ene-type, c) 0.01-5 wt.% of a radical photoinitiator.
