It is heavily reliant upon select markets such as flat consumer small/medium sized electronic touch screens. Indeed, the IDTechEx Research report Transparent Conductive Films and Materials 2018-2028: Forecasts, Technologies, Players put this reliance around 85-90% today.
The emergence of new applications has also been slower than many had predicted and hoped. This report finds that so-called "old" applications still the vast majority of the market.
This reliance must change. In fact, it is about to change: IDTechEx Research projects that "new" applications will rise to represent around half of the market within the decade. This change will bring about new opportunities and a renewed sense of excitement to the market.
The curse of the old
The industry has struggled to significantly break free from the dominance of application
