Optically clear adhesives engineered for tomorrow’s displays

Devices of all shapes and sizes connect us to what is most important in life. In many ways, they are extensions of who we are. But like people, devices evolve. At 3M, we’re engineering optically clear adhesives with the goal of expanding your design space so you can lead the evolution. From flexible solutions to helping improve efficiency, we have our eye on the future of electronic displays and how optically clear adhesives can unleash their potential. We are constantly pushing the limits of what our technology can do so you can keep connecting your customers to what is most important.

At 3M, innovation is not only a value, it’s in our DNA. For more than 100 years, we’ve been at the forefront of adhesive solutions for a wide range of applications. From attaching wings to airplanes, to Post-it® Notes, to personal electronics, our adhesives have influenced the way people experience the world.

We leveraged our adhesive expertise to help make the first mobile phones and notebook computers commercially viable. Our technology ensured true-to-life colors, brighter devices and crisp contrast, making LCD and OLED panels more vibrant. We formulated adhesives that helped prevent touch panel deterioration and allowed the first curved screens to be bonded.

Today, we hold more than 60 patents related to optically clear adhesives and continue to innovate solutions through our state-of-the-art modeling capabilities. We are here to address your design barriers — now and in the future — with system-ready products when and where you need them. Let our innovation spark inspiration.
