Optical PC films are used in various applications such as displays (LCDs and OLEDs), backlights (for LCDs), touch panels (TPs), sensors, and others.
Product Definition:
PC Films are Polycarbonate Films. They are tough, transparent films with high impact resistance. They are used in a variety of applications including safety and security glazing, signage, and packaging.
Optical PC Films:
Optical PC films are thin-film materials made from photoresist and purified carbon. They possess superior properties such as low thermal expansion, high stiffness, low density and excellent optical clarity. These films find applications in the packaging industry owing to their exceptional barrier properties which help prevent moisture absorption or leakage of oxygen or water vapor inside the package along with other gases.
Flame Retardant PC Films:
Flame retardant PC films are a type of polycarbonate film that is resistant to heat and flame. It can be used in applications such as mobile cases, electronic appliances, and electrical components. The growing electronics industry across the globe is expected to drive the demand for flame retardant PC films over the forecast period.
The key raw materials used for manufacturing these products include bisphenol A (BPA), epoxy resins, and plasticizers among others.
Application Insights:
The demand for the product is expected to increase owing to its application in various end-use industries such as automotive, construction, electrical and electronics, medical equipment and appliances among others. In addition, the market is also driven by growing demand from consumer electronics applications including smartphones and laptops. The growth of these end-use industries can be attributed to increasing disposable income coupled with a growing population which has resulted in an increased number of automobiles on roads globally. This factor has further propelled the growth of global PC films market over recent years.
PC films are used in electronic devices such as mobile phones (smartphones), tablets computers (laptop/notebook PCs), digital cameras among others due to their properties such as high impact resistance & heat resistance along with being lightweight & thin compared to other materials used for similar purposes.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest growing regional market with a CAGR of XX% from 2018 to 2030 owing to rapid industrialization and increasing construction activities in the region. In addition, rising disposable income coupled with growth in consumer electronics industry will drive demand for global PC films over the forecast period.
