Flexible Electronic Technology Helps FPC Flexible Circuit Board Take Off

Flexible electronics, also known as plastic electronics, printing electronics, organic electronics, polymer electronics, etc., are emerging electronic technologies that manufacture organic or inorganic material electronic devices on flexible, ductile plastic or thin metal substrates. Due to the ability of FPC flexible circuit boards and electronic systems to bend, fold, and extend without affecting their functionality, their unique flexibility and ductility make flexible electronic systems have broad application prospects in many aspects.




The scale of the flexible electronics industry will reach 47 billion US dollars in 2018, over 300 billion US dollars in 2028, and a compound annual growth rate of nearly 30% from 2012 to 2028. The industry is in a long-term high-speed growth trend. The rapid development of the flexible electronics industry has also led to continuous innovation in the processing technology of FPC flexible circuit boards. It has broad application prospects in fields such as information, energy, healthcare, aerospace, etc., such as flexible electronic displays, thin film solar cells, radio frequency identification (RFID) technology, flexible sensing, electrochromism, and so on.



In addition to integrating technologies in fields such as FPC flexible circuit boards, electronic components, and flat displays, flexible electronics also spans industries such as semiconductors, printed circuit boards, and display panels, helping traditional industries increase their added value. Another attractive aspect of this technology is its ability to achieve weight reduction and lightweight. Therefore, the development of flexible electronics technology will inevitably bring revolutionary changes to industrial structure and human life. With the development of flexible electronic technology, various electronic products have emerged, and the application of flexible electronics will drive a trillion yuan market for FPC flexible circuit boards.
