Market Overview:
The global PMMA aviation plastic market is estimated to be valued at US$ XX Mn in 2018 and is projected to reach US$ XX Mn by 2030, exhibiting a CAGR of X.X%. The market growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for PMMA aviation plastics from the commercial aircrafts, general and business aircrafts, military aircrafts, rotary aircrafts and other segments. In terms of application, cabin windows and windshields are expected to account for a major share of the global PMMA aviation plastic market during the forecast period. This can be attributed to the increasing demand for lightweight materials in these applications owing to stringent weight restrictions imposed by regulatory authorities across different regions. Cabin lighting is another key application segment for PMMA aviation plastics with significant growth potential over the forecast period.
 Aviation Plastic Industry Outlook.svg)
Product Definition:
Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) is an aviation plastic that is often used in the manufacturing of aircraft windows, canopies, and other clear or translucent parts. PMMA has a high impact resistance and low coefficient of thermal expansion, making it ideal for use in high-stress applications where optical clarity is important.
Commercial Aircrafts:
Commercial aircrafts are used for passenger and freight transportation. They are designed to carry more passengers and cargo in a shorter span of time. The growth factor responsible for the increasing demand is due to the growing aviation industry across the globe, especially in emerging economies such as India, China, Brazil and Middle East countries.
General and Business Aircrafts:
General and business aircrafts are used in the production of lightweight aviation plastics such as PMMA. The increasing demand for general and business aircraft is expected to drive the market over the forecast period. General and business aircraft are used by military forces, police departments, fire departments, ambulatory services, etc., which have high priority for safety requirements owing to increased risk associated with these vehicles on account of their critical nature.
The growing trend towards replacing metal components with lightweight plastics in general.
Application Insights:
Cabin windows and windshields application segment accounted for the largest share of over 40% in 2017. The growing demand for lightweight and high strength plastic is expected to drive the product demand in this application over the forecast period. PMMA is used to make cabin windows owing to its impact resistance, thermal barrier properties, low weight, UV transparency and other advantages.
The use of PMMA as a replacement for traditional glass materials offers benefits such as higher safety standards during an impact test than that of glass; better visibility from outside during flight due to lack of internal reflections; lessens passenger anxiety due to panic factor reduced by 50% when compared with traditionally made window glasses; consumes less space resulting in lesser amount of baggage allowance per passenger on board aircraft; provides protection against extreme cold weather conditions along with excellent visibility at low temperatures below 0°F.; eliminates 99% UV rays which leads towards increased durability & efficiency along with a lower maintenance cost.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in terms of revenue with a share of 59.1% in 2017. This is attributed to increasing demand from the commercial sector, which includes passenger and business aircrafts. The region will retain its leading position throughout the forecast period owing to rising disposable income and growing middle-class population, thereby fueling product demand from aviation industry as well as other applications such as marine application for windows on ships and submarines.
Europe was estimated at USD X million in 2017 and is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period due to high replacement rate for aging aircrafts coupled with rise in tourism activities across countries such as Spain, Italy, Germany among others are expected drive product demand over next eight years.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for PMMA in the aviation industry as a result of its lightweight and high strength properties.
- Growing popularity of plastic aircraft as they are more fuel-efficient and environment-friendly than traditional metal aircrafts.
- Rising demand for PMMA in wind turbine blades due to its excellent mechanical properties and low weight.
- Increasing use of PMMA in transparent armor applications due to its high impact resistance and transparency levels.
