Market Overview:
The global polycarbonate resin market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.8% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for polycarbonate resin from various end-use industries, such as automotive, packaging, building and construction, paints and coatings, electronics and electricals, opticals medical and laboratory applications. Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing region during the forecast period owing to the growing demand for polycarbonate resin from countries such as China and India.
Product Definition:
A polycarbonate resin is a type of plastic that is used in a variety of applications, including eyeglasses, medical equipment, and car headlights. Polycarbonate resins are important because they are strong and durable while also being lightweight. This makes them ideal for use in a variety of products.
Injection Moulding:
Injection molding is a process of manufacturing plastic parts by using injection molding machine. This process allows the manufacturer to produce high volume and complex shapes which are difficult or impossible to make through other processes such as casting, extrusion and machining. The material used in this technique is called as Injection Moldable Material (IMM). It can be any type of polymers, thermoplastics or elastomers depending on the requirements of the manufacturer.
UV Stabilized:
UV stabilized and its usage in polycarbonate resin market is a process where the chemical composition of the polymer is modified by adding an extra group or groups of carbon and hydrogen to it. This stabilizes the internal molecular mechanism which makes it stable against decomposition by UV light.
Application Insights:
The packaging application segment led the market and accounted for more than 35.0% share of the global revenue in 2017. The product is widely used in flexible packaging applications, such as food containers, beverage bottles, personal care products, household cleaners and pharmaceuticals. In addition, it is also used to produce lightweight blow-molded plastics for use in various industries including automotive and electronics.
The demand for sustainable materials has witnessed a paradigm shift due to rising environmental concerns among consumers across the globe. This trend has prompted manufacturers to develop new processes that would enable them to meet consumer requirements while reducing carbon emissions during production stages of goods throughout their lifecycle stages or supply chains globally over recent years owing to increasing awareness about sustainability issues among companies globally since early 2010s on account of growing green business initiatives worldwide particularly within developed economies like U.S.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific was the leading region and accounted for over 45% of the overall revenue in 2017. The growth is attributed to rising demand from key application industries such as packaging, automotive, building and construction, electronics and electrical, optical among others. China is projected to be a major consumer owing to its large production base along with growing consumption in other Asia Pacific countries such as India and Japan.
The market in North America is expected to grow at an estimated CAGR of XX% from 2018 to 2030 due to increasing demand for high performance plastics with lightweight characteristics which are used across various applications including automotive interior parts, electronic components manufacturing industry etc.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from end-use industries such as automotive, construction, and electronics
- Rising awareness about the benefits of polycarbonate resin over traditional materials
- Technological advancements in the production process that result in improved quality and reduced costs
- Growing demand for lightweight and durable plastics in transportation sector
- Expansion of global manufacturing base, especially in developing countries
