Flexible Smartphone Displays to Triple Demand for High-Barrier Films and Coatings in Printed Electronics by 2021.
In 2016 the core markets by value for barrier films are quantum dot enhanced displays, followed by the rigid OLED displays used in mobile smart devices . By 2021 the latter markets will have transitioned to flexible OLED displays creating an onus on new performance barrier solutions.
“A large fraction of the drivers influencing this market are driven by the evolution of the technologies involved. In many cases there is already market ‘pull’ for these developments – such as for flexible products that facilitate new design form factors “ states Alan Hodgson, report author.
“In other cases there is manufacturing demand– such as for products that will enable roll-to-roll processing . In the area of consumer display and wearable electronics, particularly, there is a seemingly insatiable demand for innovative products.”
Over this period this materials market will be heavily concentrated in Asia – specifically the three key national markets: South Korea, China and Japan . The market in South Korea spans most of the application segments, with the single exception of photovoltaics . China is predominantly a display market , while Japan shares a focus on the small rigid OLED display market with China, but also looks set to have significant growth from both PV and OLED lighting applications.
The European environment for printed electronics in general is very different than in Asia. Europe has a wider diversity of smaller players. Germany is the key European market for high-barrier films and coatings with industrial efforts established in OLED lighting and nascent in flexible photovoltaics.
The market in North America is, dominated by the US. The dominant applications sector in the US for high-barrier films and coatings is photovoltaics . This is a sector with the potential for significant growth.
