Based on type, thermoset plastics are expected to account for the largest share of the global 3D printing plastic powder market in 2018. This can be attributed to their high thermal stability and resistance against chemical attack. Based on application, medical applications are expected to account for the largest share of the global 3D printing plastic powder market in 2018.
Product Definition:
3D Printing Plastic Powder is a material used in 3D printing. It is usually a mixture of polymers and other additives that can be melted and extruded to produce three-dimensional objects.
Thermoset Plastics:
Thermoset plastics are thermosetting polymers that are cross-linked by heat. They have high strength and stiffness, which makes them ideal for applications where high performance is required. The most common types of thermoset plastics include Polyether Ether Ketone (PEEK) and Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS). Thermoset plastic has a higher melting point than thermoplastics, making it more suitable for injection molding processes.
Bioplastics:
Bioplastics are derived from renewable plant-based sources such as corn starch, sugarcane bagasse, and soybeans. Bioplastics have a high melting point and are used to 3D print plastic powder through injection molding or extrusion processes. The properties of bioplastics make them an ideal material for use in the food & beverage industry where recyclability is important along with cost efficiency.
Application Insights:
The aerospace and defense application segment led the global 3D printing plastic powder market in 2017. The growth can be attributed to increasing use of additive manufacturing for parts that are difficult to produce by machining, such as complex geometries, small parts with sharp edges, and thin sheets. In addition, the rising demand for low-cost 3D printed components is expected to drive the segment over the forecast period.
The automotive application segment is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to extensive use of plastics in vehicle body panels and interior fittings such as seat panes and door panel trims. In addition, growing adoption of electric vehicles (EV) is anticipated fuel demand from this sector over next eight years. Increasing production of EVs driven by government initiatives regarding reduction in vehicular emissions coupled with stringent environmental regulations aimed at improving air quality are likely drive product consumption from automotive applications significantly during this period.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global 3D printing plastic powder market in terms of revenue share in 2017. The region is expected to maintain its dominance over the forecast period as well owing to increasing research & development activities and technological advancements. Europe accounted for a significant share of global industry growth due to rising R&D investments by various companies and collaborations between them.
Asia Pacific is projected to be one of the fastest-growing regions during the forecast period, owing to rapid industrialization along with growing awareness about new technologies among consumers, especially millennials. Moreover, government initiatives encouraging adoption of additive manufacturing are also driving regional growth.
The key countries considered in this study are U.S., Canada, Germany, UK.
