San Francisco,10 October 2018: According to a report by Grand View Research, Inc., global advanced composites market is anticipated to value USD 41.20 billion by 2024. Growing requirement for raw materials offering high strength and low weight is anticipated to propel demand for advanced composites. These composites are likely to offer properties such as resistance from heat & impact and high strength, which are highly useful in major end-use sectors.
High demand for light-weight vehicles among consumers is anticipated to fuel use of advanced composites in automotive sector. This, in turn, can influence growth of market over next few years. In addition, continual development of new fighter jets is likely to augment growth of global defense sector. Increasing use of aramid composites over asbestos in manufacturing of jet components attributed to high-performance efficiency can impact market growth in initial phase of forecast period. Growing adoption of aramid composites to produce rubber reinforcements, friction materials, and optical fibers can also stimulate market growth. Moreover, technological advancements in manufacturing processes including use of fluid handling mechanism can result in decline of overall price, which can further impel growth of market over the forecast period (2018 to 2024).
Stringent regulation on production of composite materials on account of critical nature of their usage are expected to hinder growth of market over the forecast period. In addition, high volatility in price of carbon fibers owing to varying prices of its raw materials can also restrain market growth over next few years.
