Market Overview:
The global solder disc market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2018 to 2030. The solder disc market is segmented on the basis of type, application, and region. On the basis of type, the solder disc market is segmented into Au-based, Ag-based, In-based and other types. The Au-based solder discs are projected to lead the global solder disc market during the forecast period owing to their high thermal conductivity and low resistivity properties as compared to other types of solders. On the basis of application, military & aerospace sector held a dominant position in 2017 and is projected to maintain its dominance during the forecast period due to increasing demand for miniaturization in electronic devices used in this sector.
Product Definition:
Solder disc is a circular piece of solder that has been cut from a larger sheet. It is used to join two pieces of metal together by melting the solder and flowing it between the two surfaces. Solder discs are often used in electronics, where they are commonly referred to as "solder pads.
Au-based:
The term “Au-based” is used for all solid solders with a composition of greater than 60% by weight of tin alloy. The most widely used alloy is the 63Sn/36Pb, also known as “Au-63 Sn” or just plain “Au”.
Ag-based:
The global market for solder discs is expected to grow at a CAGR of XX% from 2018 to 2025. The growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for electronic devices across the globe. However, there are certain factors that may hamper the growth such as fluctuating raw material prices and environmental regulations regarding usage of toxic chemicals during manufacturing process.
Ag-based products have been gaining popularity among manufacturers due to their environment friendliness.
Application Insights:
The electronics segment accounted for the largest revenue share in 2016 and is anticipated to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The growth of this application can be attributed to increasing demand for electronic devices across the globe. Devices such as mobile phones, laptops, tablets, cameras and various other consumer electronics are made using metal-to-metal joints which require solders.
Solders are also widely used in military & aerospace applications due to their high thermal conductivity properties which enable them to melt steel during welding operations. Furthermore, they have excellent corrosion resistance properties making them an ideal choice for use in aircrafts and helicopters where there is a constant exposure of metal surfaces together with moisture content below 0°C. However, Au-based solder discs were majorly used owing to their low cost making it affordable compared with other types such as Ag or In based ones that require higher melting temperatures respectively.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global solder disc market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The presence of key electronic manufacturing companies such as Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.; Sony Corporation; Foxconn Technology Group; Wistron Corp.; and others has resulted in high demand for electronic products, thereby driving the growth of this regional segment.
The growing population, rapid urbanization, rising disposable income levels coupled with government initiatives towards economic development are some major factors responsible for increasing product demand across Asia Pacific region. Furthermore, China is anticipated to be one of the largest markets owing to low labor cost and production costs as compared to other countries around the world thus making it a favorable destination for many electronics manufacturers from Japan, South Korea, Taiwan among other Asian countries.
Latin America also accounted for a significant share in terms of volume due to large-scale investments made by various governments across Brazil.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from the automotive and electronics industries
- Growing popularity of miniaturized and wearable devices
- Proliferation of LED lighting fixtures
- Rising demand for advanced packaging technologies
- Growing trend of green technology
