Market Overview:
The global aerospace carbon fiber fabric market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for lightweight and durable materials in the aerospace industry. Carbon fiber fabrics are made up of carbon fibers that are woven together into a fabric sheet. These fabrics offer high strength-to-weight ratios, which makes them ideal for aircraft and spacecraft components that need to be lightweight yet durable. The other key drivers for the market include the increasing demand for fuel-efficient aircraft and rising concerns over environmental sustainability. The global aerospace carbon fiber fabric market is segmented on the basis of type, application, and region. On the basis of type, it is divided into 3k, 6k, 12k, and others (including unidirectional tapes/strips). On the basis of application, it is classified into plane (commercial & military), helicopter (commercial & military), space shuttle (NASA & ESA), and others (including UAVs/drones). Regionally speaking, it covers North America continent including countries such as US & Canada; Latin America including Mexico; Europe including UK France Germany Spain Italy etc.; Asia Pacific covering China India Japan South Korea Australia New Zealand etc.
Product Definition:
Aircraft-grade carbon fiber fabric is a high-performance, lightweight fabric made from woven or nonwoven carbon fibers. It is used in aerospace and other high-stress applications where weight savings and strength are critical.
3k:
3k is a term used for referring to the strength of carbon fiber. The higher the number, generally indicates better performance and/or quality of carbon fiber. For example, 3K means three times as strong as standard aramid fibers which can hold up to seven times its weight. It also has excellent properties such as high tensile strength, good compressive properties and low modulus which makes it ideal for use in aircraft components where high load factors are encountered frequently.
6k:
6k is a term used for referring to the specific size and quality of carbon fiber. The higher the number, generally signifies a more pure form of carbon fiber with less impurities (read: dirt). 6k means that only one out of every 10,000 fibers would be longer than 6 inches. In other words, it’s very rare to find any other material with such high purity levels as compared to 3K or 5K.
Application Insights:
The plane application segment led the market in 2017 and is projected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. The rising demand for carbon fiber based composites in aircraft manufacturing on account of their lightweight properties is expected to drive the product demand. In addition, increasing utilization of these materials in commercial airliners on account of improved fuel efficiency and reduced emissions coupled with growing concerns regarding global warming due to increase in greenhouse gas emissions is likely to propel industry expansion over the coming years.
Carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) has gained prominence as a potential replacement for metal fasteners used during aircraft manufacturing owing to its superior strength-to-weight ratio, which makes it suitable for use as an alternative solution while assembling an aircraft component made up of wood or composite materials.
Regional Analysis:
North America accounted for the largest share of over 40% in 2017. The U.S., being a leading country in aerospace manufacturing, is expected to dominate the North American market over the forecast period.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to witness significant growth during the forecast period owing to increasing demand from various end-use industries such as aviation and space exploration coupled with rising disposable income among consumers. China and Japan are some of the major countries that contribute significantly towards regional growth due to presence of key manufacturers such as Mitsubishi Rayon Co., Ltd.; Toyota Tsusho; JSP Corporation; Nippon Paint Holdings Co.; Honda Motor Company; Kawasaki Heavy Industries Ltd.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for lightweight and fuel-efficient aircrafts is expected to drive the growth of the aerospace carbon fiber fabric market.
- The increasing use of carbon fiber composites in military aircraft is also projected to boost the demand for aerospace carbon fiber fabric during the forecast period.
- The rising popularity of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is also anticipated to propel the growth of this market in the near future.
- Stringent regulations pertaining to emissions and noise levels are likely to create opportunities for players operating in this market over the next few years.
- Growing investments by key players in research and development activities is expected to result in innovations that would help reduce manufacturing costs, which would subsequently fuel the growth of this market
