Market Overview:
The global lyotropic liquid crystal polymer market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for lyotropic liquid crystal polymers from various applications such as electronics, home appliances, automotive, packaging, healthcare and others. In addition, the growing demand for lightweight and high-performance materials is also contributing to the growth of this market.
Product Definition:
Lyotropic liquid crystal polymers are a type of polymer that exhibits lyotropic phase behavior. This means that the polymer can exist in more than one form, depending on the solvent it is dissolved in. The most common form is a gel, which occurs when the polymer is dissolved in water. Lyotropic liquid crystal polymers are important for drug delivery and other biomedical applications.
Calamitic:
Calamitic is a type of polymer, which has been developed from amorphous polymers. It has an appearance similar to glass and can be used as a substitute for glass in many applications. Calamitic Polymer is produced by the addition of calcium ions (calcium phosphate) during the manufacturing process of thermoplastic lyotropic liquid crystal polymer (LLCP). The product improves thermal shock resistance, mechanical strength and dimensional stability of LLCP products.
Discotic:
The discotic liquid crystal polymer (LLCP) is a new class of material that belongs to the family of topological phases. LLCPs are expected to be useful for applications in optoelectronics, spintronics and electronics owing to their unconventional electronic properties such as lyotropic liquid crystals, antiferromagnetic coupling and topological superconductivity.
Application Insights:
The electronics segment accounted for the largest revenue share in 2016 and is anticipated to continue its dominance over the forecast period. Liquid crystal polymer is used as a processing aid in electronic devices, which helps improve yield, reliability and quality of the end product. The use of LCPP provides benefits such as low thermal expansion property, high dielectric strength & breakdown voltage along with excellent processing capability. These polymers are also used in printed circuit boards (PCB) that are required to operate at elevated temperatures without suffering from any damage or failure due to overheating or burning out components.
LCPP finds applications across various industries including consumer electronics, medical equipment & appliances manufacturing and automotive sector among others owing to their properties such as impact resistance & chemical stability which make them suitable for use during manufacturing stages of automobiles/vehicles where durability plays an important role.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global lyotropic liquid crystal polymer market in 2016 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The region accounted for a revenue share of more than 60% in 2016 owing to high demand from end-use industries such as electronics, automotive, healthcare, packaging and others. China is one of the largest markets for LCP materials due to increasing R&D activities by domestic manufacturers coupled with growing demand from foreign customers located mainly in Japan and South Korea.
North America emerged as a significant regional market for LCP materials owing to increased consumption from end-use industries such as automotive interior applications, consumer electronics devices including smartphones/tablets and others. U.S., being an early adopter of advanced technologies has significantly contributed towards industry growth since it was introduced into automobile manufacturing industry several years ago resulting into higher sales volumes across all brands involved in automobile manufacturing globally including Ford Motors Co., General Motors Company, Nissan Motor Corporation Ltd.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for LCPs in the automotive and aerospace industries due to their high strength-to-weight ratio and thermal stability.
- Growing demand from the medical device industry for biocompatible LCPs with low moisture absorption and excellent mechanical properties.
- Rising demand from the electronics industry for LCPs with low dielectric constant and superior electrical insulation properties.
- Increasing use of LCPs in packaging applications due to their resistance to environmental stress cracking and good barrier properties against gases, vapors, and moisture vapor transmission rates (MVTR).
