UV-C LED is optimistic about the market, LED manufacturers eager for a fight"

's latest report pointed out that the 2016 UV-C LED sterilization and purification of the market value of $28 million, to $257 million in 2021, a compound annual growth rate of 56%. With the launch of new products more LED end of this year, will accelerate the development of UV-C LED technology. Wu Yingjie pointed out that at this stage the main UV-C LED factory for the United States, Japan, South Korean companies, Nichia UV-C LED product is expected to be launched in the fourth quarter, and Taiwan factory as the light hung with crystal research will also be launched in November 265 ~ 275nm (nm) UV-C LED, in short for the main application in sterilization application market. Wu Yingjie said, because the UV-C can be used in food preservation, air purification, water purification market, the potential demand for amazing. However, the technical threshold UV-C LED products is very high, no matter in the epitaxial wafer, technology, packaging and market acceptance are facing many challenges, so now the market UV-C LED products in addition to quartz glass packaging products mainly, also launched low-cost promotion package silicone collocation version, the current small and short life, only suitable for application in the consumption of low-priced products, as manufacturers marketing purposes. Wu Yingjie further pointed out that, in the overall LED market this year due to ultraviolet, ultraviolet LED light curing products actively into the market, sterilization and purification applications, estimated value will grow to $166 million, reaching $555 million by 2021, a compound annual growth rate of 27%. Light hung with crystal research cooperation, development of 265nm to 275nm short wavelength UV LED, and will be launched in November this year, sterilization products. Due to the short wavelength UVC technical threshold is high, but also in the application of medical sterilization and biological identification of high order special field, the net water application, Japan has invested heavily in Dachang development, is expected to drive the market to speed up the amplification, and Taiwan LED manufacturers is expected in the price advantage, and international competition to grab the city.
