Optical films are thin, transparent materials with special optical properties designed to enhance a substance's refraction, polymerization, and transmission properties. It is used to layer several substances like automotive material, household electronic appliances, medical devices, and exposure light and it is made up of optical-grade materials like polycarbonate, polymethyl-methacrylate, and ZEONOR. These films also serve as anti-corrosion and anti-degradation barriers, shielding the layered material from the outside. Moreover, optical Films contain Plastic Polycarbonate, Glass, Strontium fluoride, Zinc sulfide, Sodium chloride, and Synthetic diamond.
The increasing use of optical film in several end-use industries like consumer electronics displays, automotive displays, and industrial appliances drives the growth of the market. With the rising population and increasing income, there is an increase in the demand for electronic devices like television, a smartphone, and laptop. Optical film plays a crucial role in manufacturing electronic display devices as they enhance the quality of display performance and color reflection. Increasing demand for electronic devices led to an increase in the growth of the optical film market. Moreover, the automotive sector increasingly uses optical film in vehicles for the heads-up display and navigation instrument clusters. Optical films are also used for industrial purposes for control panels, touchscreens, medical devices, and public signage to enhance the visibility of a display. As industries adopt more interactive displays for various applications, the demand for optical films in these sectors expands.
The high cost of manufacturing due to volatile raw material prices and high setup costs are expected to hinder the growth of the optical film market. The production of optical film involves advanced manufacturing processes and specialized equipment, increasing the cost of production. An increase in production cost led to increasing the price of an optical film resulted to decrease in the demand for the optical film. Optical films need to meet the stringent quality standard to ensure optical performance. Implementation of quality performance like inspection, testing resulted to increase the production cost of the optical film. Moreover, volatile prices of polymers, coatings, and additives used in the manufacturing of optical film may inhibit the growth of the optical film market.
Optical Film production and consumption were significantly impacted in 2020 by the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown measures. Lockdowns and border restrictions caused supply chain disruptions that lowered overall optical film manufacturing. The pandemic resulted in economic uncertainty resulting to reduces customer spending and leading to a decline in the demand for various electronic products that utilize optical film. Many optical film manufacturing facilities experienced temporary shutdowns and reduced production capacity due to lockdown measures.
Post-pandemic, optical film manufacture and use restarted in several industries. The government released border restriction laws and regulations, which lessened the disturbance to business operations and the supply chain. The demand for consumer electronic devices in increased because of remote working and online activities.
