Market Overview:
The global polycarbonate sheets and films market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for polycarbonate sheets and films in various applications, such as aerospace, agriculture, automotive, construction, electrical & electronics, and other applications. Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing region during the forecast period.
Product Definition:
Polycarbonate Sheets and Films are thermoplastic polymers that are used in a variety of applications, including eyeglasses, medical equipment, automotive parts, and construction materials.
PolycarbonateFilm(Thickness Less than or equal to0.25 mm):
Polycarbonate films are high-performance materials that offer excellent optical clarity, chemical stability, and temperature resistance. Polycarbonate (PC) resin is a transparent thermosetting plastic with an extremely high melting point. It can be extruded as a sheet or cut into any shape according to the application requirements.
Polycarbonate Sheet(ThicknessAbove 0.25 mm):
Polycarbonate sheet (thickness above 0.25 mm) is a thermoplastic polymer, which can be extruded as an opaque or transparent film. It has superior properties such as high chemical & temperature resistance, low glass transition temperature and excellent mechanical strength among other things. Polycarbonate sheets are used in applications where high-temperature resistance is required like automotive components and electrical & electronic devices that require heat resistant coating like solders or circuit boards etc.
Application Insights:
Aerospace was the largest application segment in 2016, accounting for over 35% of the overall market. The product is used to manufacture aircraft windows and exterior body parts such as nose cap, rudder and tailfin. Increasing air travel across the globe is expected to propel demand for glass composites that are lighter in weight and offer enhanced strength compared to conventional aluminum alloys. This will result in increased use of polycarbonate sheets during manufacturing process of these composites, thereby driving growth over the forecast period.
Polycarbonate sheets find applications as food containers, drink bottles & cans (DBC), egg boxes among others owing to properties such as high impact resistance & thermal shock resistance which make them suitable for use in packaging products where durability is required along with safety features such as child-resistant closure systems and pop-top lids which prevent leakage due to pressure build up inside a container when it is opened.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific was the largest market for the product and accounted for a revenue share of over 45% in 2016. The region is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period owing to increasing demand from end-use industries such as aerospace, automotive, construction, electrical & electronics and others.
The polycarbonate sheets market in Asia Pacific is majorly driven by growing demand from key countries such as China, India and Japan. Increasing use of these products due to their lightweight features coupled with high strength properties will drive growth further. In addition, rising disposable income levels among consumers will have a positive impact on industry growth over the next eight years.
Europe was one of the prominent markets for polycarbonate sheets with Germany being one of its leading producers along with France.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from end-use industries such as construction, automotive and electrical & electronics
- Rising awareness about the benefits of polycarbonate sheets and films among consumers
- Technological advancements in the production of polycarbonate sheets and films
- Growing demand for lightweight and durable materials in transportation sector
- Expansion of global manufacturing base
