Global Polymer-Dispersed Liquid Crystals (PDLCs) Market Growth 2025-2031

Global Polymer‐Dispersed Liquid Crystals (PDLCs) Market Growth 2025-2031

The global Polymer‐Dispersed Liquid Crystals (PDLCs) market size is predicted to grow from US$ 104 million in 2025 to US$ 173 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.9% from 2025 to 2031.

Polymer-dispersed liquid crystals (PDLCs) are a relatively new class of materials that hold promise for many applications ranging from switchable windows to projection displays. These materials, which are simply a combined application of polymers and liquid crystals, are the focus of extensive research in the display industry.

Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal (PDLC) are a type of smart film that change their transparency in response to an electrical impulse. When inactive the liquid crystals are randomly arranged, thus scattering the light as it permeates the screen, which results in the translucent, milky appearance of the assembly. When however a voltage is applied, an electrical field is created between the two electrodes, which causes the liquid crystals to align, allowing light to pass through and essentially turning the screen transparent.

Polymer‐dispersed liquid crystals is mainly classified into Three types: Scattering PDLCs, Nano-PDLCs and Polymer Network Liquid Crystals. And Scattering PDLCs are the most widely used type which takes up about 88% of the global total in 2019 in terms of sales.Chin, USA, Japan, Korea are now the key producers of polymer‐dispersed liquid crystals. The high-quality products are mainly supplied by overseas producers. Mainly due to the perfect upstream supply and downstream glass manufacturing industry.
