Global Low Refractive Index Adhesives and Coatings Supply, Demand and Key Producers, 2026-2032
Description
The global Low Refractive Index Adhesives and Coatings market size is expected to reach $ 1197 million by 2032, rising at a market growth of 7.9% CAGR during the forecast period (2026-2032).
Low refractive index adhesives and coatings are adhesives and coatings that have a low refractive index. Low refractive index adhesives are adhesives that minimize the refraction of light at the adhesive surface, and are used in applications where transparency is required. For example, they are often used in the joints of optical devices and displays.Low refractive index adhesives and coatings have important applications in various fields, especially in the optical and electronic industries. Their main feature is that they can effectively reduce the refractive index of light, thereby improving optical performance, reducing optical errors, increasing transparency or improving the transmittance of light. In the manufacturing of optical components, low refractive index adhesives can be used to bond components such as lenses, optical glass, and filters. Due to its low refractive index, it can avoid excessive reflection and refraction of light at the bonding point, thereby maintaining high transmittance and clarity of the optical system. In the manufacturing process of liquid crystal displays (LCDs), organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), and other display screens, low refractive index coatings are commonly used to improve the transparency and light transmittance of the display screen, reduce light reflection, and enhance display performance. Low refractive index coatings are also commonly used to protect screens and enhance visual experience, especially in high-resolution and high brightness display devices. In 2024, global Low Refractive Index Adhesives and Coatings production reached approximately 1778.60 ton, with an average global market price of around US$ 364 per kg.
With the development of nanotechnology and new material science, the formulation of low-refractive coatings is constantly optimized to achieve lower refractive index and better durability. Research and development focus on improving transparency, enhancing wear resistance, and broadening the applicable temperature range, while reducing production costs. It should be noted that in addition to technological innovation in this market to reduce the refractive index while maintaining chemical properties such as stability and wear resistance, the increasingly stringent environmental protection is also driving changes in innovation trends in this market to a certain extent, the industry is reducing the use of perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), For example, Kriya has developed a PFAS-free low refractive index (LRI) coating material, one of the few in the world that has been commercialized. It is expected that PFAS-free low refractive index (LRI) coating materials will be more widely produced and sold in the future.
