Colouring the market a beautiful shade of success with Optically Transparent Polyimide Films
From 2019 to 2026, the global transparent polyimide films market is predicted to increase at a CAGR of 74.0 percent, reaching $610.55 million. The reactions of dianhydride and diamine monomers having fluorine-containing moieties produce transparent and clear polyimide (CPI) films. The solubilities, thermal stabilities, and optical transparencies of these CPI films are superior to those of other commercially available PIs. The strong electron-withdrawing groups in their monomeric units, which impede the formation of charge-transfer complexes (CT-complexes) and diminish intermolecular interactions, are ascribed to the low cutoff wavelengths (o) and transparent character of these CPI films. The market is being driven by factors such as rising demand for these films from applications such as flexible displays, flexible solar cells, and so on, as well as the versatile, flexible, and colourless nature of these films. The high cost of developing polyimide films, on the other hand, is impeding market growth.
Exploring the market segmentation of Optically Transparent Polyimide Films
The electronics segment is expected to increase at a healthy rate during the projection period, depending on the end user. Polyimides are colorless and have outstanding thermo-mechanical properties, as well as great chemical resistance and optical transparency. These qualities make electronics like flexible displays, flexible printed circuit boards, and lighting equipment possible. Temperatures in the fabrication process can reach 300°C, and traditional aromatic polyimides tend to dissolve or change color at such high temperatures. As a result, as production technologies improve and become more consistent, demand for colorless polyimides is likely to rise.
