According to
a new market report published by Lucintel, the future of the global carbon
fiber in aerospace and defense market looks attractive with opportunities in
the commercial aircraft, regional aircraft, general aviation, helicopter, and UAVs.
The global carbon fiber in aerospace and defense market is expected to reach an
estimated $1.6 billion by 2025 with a CAGR of 4.2% from 2020 to 2025. The major
drivers for this market are increasing demand for high-performance lightweight
materials in the aerospace / defense industry and growing production of
advanced aircraft models with high composites content.
In
this market, carbon fiber composite are used in the commercial aerospace, regional jets,
helicopters, military aircraft, and UAVs. Lucintel forecasts that commercial aerospace
will be the largest segment supported by the demand for lightweight materials
in aircraft programs, such as Boeing 787 and Airbus A350. Carbon fiber for UAV is
expected to witness the highest growth over the forecast period due to the increasing
demand Unmanned Arial Vehicles for surveillance and growing use of lightweight
materials in its development.
Based on the
type of precursor, the carbon fiber market in aerospace and defense industry
can be segmented into two types: Polyacrylonitrile-based (PAN-based) and
pitch-based. PAN-based carbon fiber usage is higher by value and volume because
it is lower in cost than pitch-based.
By tow size,
small tow (less than 24k) is expected to remain the largest segment by volume
and witness the highest growth over the forecast period because its mainly use
in the aerospace industry owing to high tensile strength. By modulus, standard
modulus is expected to remain the largest segment by volume over the forecast
period.
North America
is expected to remain the largest region during the forecast period. The growth
of carbon fiber in North American aerospace & defense market is driven by
increasing carbon fiber content and growth of aircraft deliveries of B787 and
B777.
Emerging
trends, which have a direct impact on the dynamics of the industry, include the
Increasing demand of continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastics and growing
initiatives for recycling of carbon fiber.
