Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystals (PDLC) Segmentation

Product (Laminated PDLC, Self-Adhesive PDLC)

Laminated PDLC segment is estimated to capture around 67.4% polymer dispersed liquid crystals market share by the end of 2037, owing to its usage in smart windows, office partitions, and automotive glazing. Laminated PDLC technology is more durable, energy-efficient, and has better protection from UV rays than other products, making them suitable for commercial and residential purposes. In May 2023, Saint-Gobain Group launched a sustainable construction observatory using PDLC-based dynamic glazing solutions in large-scale urban construction projects. This launch demonstrates a shift towards the use of laminated PDLC in green buildings and energy-efficient urban designs.

Technology (Scattering PDLC, Nano PDLC)

By the end of 2037, scattering PDLC segment is projected to hold over 58.7% polymer dispersed liquid crystals market share due to enhanced light diffusion, high optical clarity, and faster response times. The scattering PDLC offers better light control than other types, which makes it suitable for smart windows, displays, and other commercial uses. In October 2023, the Saint-Gobain Group developed a new generation of smart windows with self-tinting ability based on new PDLC scattering technology to enhance the energy-saving and adjustment of light transmittance. This is expected to bring a revolution in the usability of smart glass in residential, corporate, and industrial buildings.
