Overview
Scope of the Report
The global Acrylic Liquid Optically Clear Adhesive (LOCA) market size is predicted to grow from US$ 187 million in 2025 to US$ 260 million in 2032; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.8% from 2026 to 2032.
Acrylic Liquid Optically Clear Adhesive (LOCA) is a high-transparency, UV- or heat-curable liquid acrylic adhesive designed for direct optical bonding of displays, cover lenses, and touch panels, offering excellent light transmission, gap filling, shock absorption, and durability while eliminating air gaps and improving visibility, contrast, and mechanical strength in consumer electronics, automotive displays, industrial screens, and optical sensor modules.
The Acrylic LOCA industry chain begins upstream with suppliers of acrylic monomers, oligomers, photoinitiators, UV stabilizers, rheology modifiers, and specialty additives, then transitions midstream into adhesive formulation, purification, viscosity control, UV-curing system development, packaging, and dispensing equipment integration, and finally moves downstream to display makers, optical bonding houses, automotive display integrators, sensor module producers, and electronics OEMs that use LOCA for bonding touch panels, cover lenses, OLED screens, curved displays, and optical modules, enabling enhanced visibility, reduced glare, improved durability, and superior optical performance in a wide range of electronic applications.
Planned and ongoing LOCA-related projects include expansion of UV-curable acrylic adhesive production in China, Korea, and Taiwan to support OLED and automotive display growth; new manufacturing lines focused on low-yellowing, flexible-display-compatible LOCA; investment in clean-environment dispensing and bubble-free packaging technologies; collaborations between display panel makers and adhesive suppliers to customize LOCA for microLED, AR/VR optics, and curved automotive screens; and the establishment of regional LOCA curing equipment centers and application labs aimed at reducing time-to-qualification, improving reliability testing, and increasing production capacity for next-generation optoelectronic bonding materials.
2025 Global Market sales Volume: 53,700 tons, Average Global Market Price: USD 3,556 per ton, Market Average Gross Profit Margin: 32%.
Global key Acrylic Liquid Optically Clear Adhesive (LOCA) players cover Henkel, H.B. Fuller, BenQ Materials, Dexerials, Suzhou FINESET Material Technology Co, etc.
