Market Overview:
The global carbon cloth gas diffusion layer market is expected to grow at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for fuel cells across different applications and regions. Carbon cloth gas diffusion layers are used in fuel cells for efficient performance. These layers help in the distribution of gases uniformly across the cell, which improves performance and reduces costs. Additionally, stringent environmental regulations are driving the demand for fuel cells, which is further propelling the growth of the carbon cloth gas diffusion layer market.
Product Definition:
Carbon cloth gas diffusion layers are thin, porous sheets of carbon that are used to help distribute gas evenly through a device. This is important for devices that need to function properly, as uneven gas distribution can lead to problems. Carbon cloth gas diffusion layers can be used in a variety of applications, including fuel cells and batteries.
Thickness＜350μm:
Thickness 350 m is a new term in the Carbon Cloth Gas Diffusion Layers market. It was created to differentiate between the thickness of carbon cloth and traditional diffusion layers. The thickness of 350 m is much higher than that of 0.1 - 2 mm, which has been used traditionally for gas diffusion layer applications.
The growth factor (G) indicates the ratio between total area.
Thickness350~400μm:
Thickness350-400μm is a special type of carbon cloth that has been processed to have a thickness between 350-400μm. It is used in the production of CGL (Carbon Glass Laminates) which are widely utilized for thermal insulation purposes across various end-use industries such as building & construction, automotive and power generation industries. The product also finds application in sound barriers, filter media and decorative items.
Application Insights:
The market is segmented on the basis of application into hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell, hydrocarbon fuels cell and others. The hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell segment dominated the overall industry in terms of revenue share in 2017. This is due to a high demand for H2O2 fueled vehicles across various regions such as Europe and Asia Pacific. Furthermore, increasing R&D activities pertaining to this technology will further boost product demand over the forecast period.
Hydrocarbon fuels cells are anticipated to be one of the fastest growing segments during the forecast period owing to rising concerns regarding greenhouse gas emissions from vehicles coupled with an increase in government initiatives aimed at reducing these emissions globally. Increasing carbon cloth layers usage as anode material for hydrocarbon fueled buses has been observed by researchers from Nanyang Technological University (NTU) based in Singapore who were involved with trials conducted by Loyola Marymount University (LMU) based out of Los Angeles, California.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing regional market over the forecast period. The presence of a large number of manufacturers and suppliers in this region, along with growing demand for fuel cell systems from various end-use industries such as healthcare, transportation, and power generation sectors has led to increased product penetration in this region. In addition, increasing awareness regarding GHG diffusion layers usage for reducing carbon emissions coupled with supportive government regulations is anticipated to drive industry growth over the coming years.
Europe was estimated as the second largest regional market in 2017 owing to high demand from several major end-use industries including automotive and aerospace. However North America may emerge as a potential substitute due its higher cost compared to Asia Pacific Cloth Gases Diffusion Layers Market (APAC).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for fuel cells and electric vehicles
- Rising awareness about the benefits of using carbon cloth gas diffusion layers in fuel cells and electric vehicles
- Growing number of collaborations and partnerships between key players in the carbon cloth gas diffusion layer market
- Increasing investments by leading players to develop new technologies for carbon cloth gas diffusion layers
- Proliferation of advanced manufacturing techniques for producing high-quality carbon cloth gas diffusion layers
