Carbon Fiber Market By Production, Manufacturer, Revenue Analysis And Forecast To 2026

What is Carbon Fiber?

Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (American English), Carbon fibre reinforced polymer (Commonwealth English), or carbon fiber reinforced plastic, or carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic (CFRP, CRP, CFRTP, or often simply carbon fiber, carbon composite, or even carbon), is an extremely strong and light fiber-reinforced plastic which contains carbon fibers.  

The rising demand for carbon fiber from end-use industries is one of the key factors boosting the carbon fiber market growth, says Fortune Business Insights ™ in a report, titled “Carbon Fiber Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Raw Material (Polyacrtlonitrile, Pitch, Rayon), By Application (Composite Carbon Fiber, Non-Composite Carbon Fiber), By End-Use Industry (Aerospace & Defence, Sports & Leisure, Automotive, Wind Energy, Marine, Others) and Regional Forecast, 2019-2026” Increasing manufacturing of aircraft and growing advanced technology is predicted to foster healthy growth of the market in the foreseeable future.

According to the report, the carbon fiber market based on raw material is segmented into Polyacrylonitrile (PAN), pitch and rayon.  Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) is expected to account for maximum share in the market owing to its wide use in carbon fiber production because of its superior material properties such as high tensile strength and temperature resistance.

Furthermore, the low cost of PAN is likely to fuel demand, which will, in, turn boost the carbon fiber market share. Moreover, the expansion of the aerospace & defence industry will bode well for the composite carbon fiber owing to the strength, rigidity, and applications such as composite molding, woven fibers, and others.

The report offers profound insights into the prevailing trends of the carbon fiber market. It shares an all-encompassing study of all the segments and provides comprehensive data on all the aspects, including regional analysis. It is put together after proficient research followed by in-depth analysis to assist companies, stakeholders, financers and potential investors. It is intended to give a compressive depiction of the market size.

Announcement of Lightweight solutions for Industrial Applications by Hexcel Corporation to Spur Carbon Fiber Market Business Opportunities

Hexcel corporation presented lightweight solutions for industrial applications at the Turkish Composite Summit 2019. These industrial ranges of composite materials consist of carbon fiber and reinforcements, prepregs, honeycomb and adhesives, and other fibers. The announcement by Hexcel Corporation for industrial applications is expected to bolster the healthy growth of the market in the forthcoming years.

Also, the declaration by SGL Carbon for industrial and other applications is predicted to create growth opportunities during the forecast period. For instance, in September 2019, SGL Carbon presented solutions and materials made of carbon fiber composites for industrial and other applications at the China Composites Expo. The company showcased its product portfolio ranging from SIGRAFIL carbon fibers and textile semi-finished products to REFRASIL silica-based materials. These products are developed, especially for high-temperature applications in the aerospace industry.
