The invention relates to a method for producing electrochromic devices, in
particular that having a large working surface area and which does not
produce a volumetric shrinkage and can operate during a long maintenance
of electrocoloured state of an electrochromic compound, high control
voltages and polarity inversion. The inventive electrochromic device
comprises at least two electrodes (1, 2), at least one of them being
optically transparent. A closed sealed space is formed between said
electrodes and filled with the electrochromic compound which is embodied
in the form of a solid-like film. The inventive method for producing the
electrochromic device consists in prefabricating an initial
electrochromic compound in the form of a dispersed electrochromic system
which contains at least a suspension and/or colloid. The dispersed medium
of said system is embodied in the form of an electrochromic solution
containing a liquid solvent, cathode and anode components, a disperse
phase being embodied in the form of a finely dispersed polymer.
Afterwards, the initial electrochromic compound is deaerated, thereby
eliminating dissolved oxygen and air introduced by said finely dispersed
polymer, and is used for filling the space between the electrodes.
