Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystals Market Trends

Growth Drivers

  • Increased Use in Technology – The polymer-dispersed liquid crystals are commonly used in the opto-electronic field because of their electrically switchable properties. It is well established that PDLCs are able to be used as electric switchable alternatives to traditional blinds or curtains by switching from an opaque and translucent state to a voltage-based one. Also, an IoT smart controller has been successfully developed, enabling the operation of wirelessly and autonomously using PDLC films. These factors are driving the polymer dispersed liquid crystals market growth.
  • Low-Cost Production Process - Their successful use as a technology of smart windows has ensured their compatibility with cost-effective production processes, such as roll-on-to-roll processing. Unlike multilayer electrochromic, the PDLC method typically relies on one layer of a transparent film that consists of liquid crystals LC and suspends them as polymer matrix droplets.
  • Numerous Favourable Properties of PDLC – The exceptional mechanical characteristics of polymer dispersed liquid crystals at high temperatures, its excellent chemical resistance, compensable flame retardancy, and good weather ability. There are also different forms of liquid crystal polymer LCPs such as sinterable at high temperatures or injection molded compounds which can be obtained. This factor is gradually driving the PDLC market growth.

Challenges

  • Less Advanced PDLC Architecture - The fact that only two states can be achieved is one of the drawbacks of the PDLC architecture: transparency and scattering. At the same time, when one wishes to ensure a level of illumination throughout a room, light must be drawn through windows, and curtains are still required. This factor may hamper the market growth of PDLC.
  • Availability of Substitutes
  • Higher Cost of PDLC
