Global Long Fiber Thermoplastic Market Analysis and Forecast Report 2030

Description

Global Long Fiber Thermoplastic Market Analysis and Forecast Report 2030

Product Overview
Long fiber thermoplastic is the material that bridges the gap between conventional fiber-reinforced components and composites. Long fiber thermoplastic is a moldable thermoplastic that is employed to manufacture the components used in the automotive industry. Long fiber thermoplastic components are produced by the pultrusion process or injection molding. They are generally 10-12 mm long. Long fiber thermoplastic has higher mechanical performance due to which they are often used as metal substitutes, as an alternative to under-performing plastics, and as a replacement for higher-cost engineering polymers. Long fiber thermoplastic exhibits various properties including high strength, heat resistance, durability, weight reduction, and corrosion resistance. Long fiber thermoplastic finds its application in automotive, aerospace, construction, healthcare, consumer, electronics, and sports and leisure.

Global Long Fiber Thermoplastic market is divided by Resin into polypropylene, polyamide, thermoplastic polyurethane, polybutylene terephthalate, polyphenylene sulfide, polycarbonate and PEEK. Polypropylene segment held the largest market share in the year 2019 and will continue to dominate the market in the coming years. Polypropylene is used with glass or carbon fibers to manufacture electronic materials. They are also utilized in automobiles in order to reduce the emissions

Automotive segment to grow with the highest CAGR during 2020-30
Global Long Fiber Thermoplastic market is bifurcated by End User into automotive, aerospace, electrical and electronics, buildings and construction, sporting equipment, and others. The automotive segment held the largest market share in the year 2019 and will continue to dominate the market in the coming years owing to the consumer inclination towards lightweight and fuel-efficient vehicles. Long fiber thermoplastics are used in bumpers, instrument panels, door modules, battery cooling box and underbody shielding applications which are projected to robust the growth of the market globally.

Market Dynamics
Drivers
Growing demand from automotive industry
Long fiber thermoplastics are extensively used in the automotive industry as they help to reduce the weight of vehicles and improve fuel efficiency. The reduced weight of vehicles saves energy by decreasing tire wear and emissions. Long fiber thermoplastics are used as a substitute for conventional components such as die castings, metal assemblies, and underperforming plastics in the automotive sector. Furthermore, with the increasing population along with the rising disposable income, the demand for vehicles is fueling which is expected to spur the demand for long fiber thermoplastics across the automotive industry.

Increasing application in aerospace sector
Long fiber thermoplastics are highly preferred for manufacturing aircraft owing to their chemical resistance and corrosion-free properties which makes the product durable and increases its life. Additionally, long fiber thermoplastics are cost-effective as compared to metals which in turn increasing its utilization in interiors and some of the exterior parts of the aircraft which is anticipated to drive the market in the coming years.

Restraint
Availability of substitutes
The increasing usage of thermosets due to their improved mechanical properties and cost efficiency is estimated to hamper the long fiber thermoplastics market. Moreover, a lack of knowledge regarding the benefits of long fiber thermoplastics is likely to restrict the market growth.
