概述
全球對位芳綸纖維市場將於 2023 年達到 29 億美元,預計到 2031 年將達到 44 億美元,2024-2031 年預測期間複合CAGR為 5.3%。
由於各種最終用途領域對輕質和高強度材料的需求不斷成長,全球對位芳綸纖維市場穩步成長。這些纖維具有廣泛的應用,包括防彈背心和防彈衣以及汽車和航空結構中的增強材料。主要對位芳綸纖維製造商正在透過策略聯盟、收購和投資研發設施來擴大其在美國市場的影響力,從而改變客戶的期望。
例如,2022 年 1 月 27 日,Durak Tekstil Para Aramid 線在 ISPA 博覽會上首次亮相美國。 Durak 防火對位芳綸縫紉線因其卓越的耐熱性、斷裂強度和不導電特性而受到床墊製造商的青睞。因此,美國對區域市場的成長做出了重大貢獻,佔據了超過3/4的區域市場。
動力學
在彈道防護應用中的使用不斷增加
首創的 Kevlar EXO 芳綸纖維比現有最先進的軟質防彈衣材質更優越、更耐用。 Kevlar 提供了所有芳綸纖維中最高的彈道性能,同時又不降低重量,從而成為目前市場上同類最佳、重量最輕的彈道軟裝甲選擇。 Kevlar 和 Twaron 是對位芳綸纖維的兩個例子,它們在強度、耐熱性和化學穩定性方面都非常出色。
例如,2023 年 4 月 14 日,杜邦公司推出了 50 多年來最重要的芳綸纖維發明 Kevlar EXO 芳綸。它是一個全新的技術平台,旨在為無數在極端和苛刻條件下需要保護和性能的應用提供服務。 Kevlar EXO 的眾多應用中的第一個應用將是生命保護,它將提供無與倫比的輕質、靈活性和芳綸保護。
透過高性能對位芳綸纖維推動市場擴張
高性能對位芳綸纖維的出現擴大了市場範圍,它解決了以前傳統材料無法滿足的特定應用問題。擴大產品範圍鼓勵創新和市場競爭,從而推動更多對位芳綸纖維產業的研究和開發。
帝人芳綸推出了兩種高性能對位芳綸纖維 Technora 和 Twaron。在全球範圍內,廣泛的市場和應用,包括汽車、海事、防彈保護、土木工程、防護服、光纖電纜以及石油和天然氣,都採用其產品。高壓力等級、低重量、出色的適應性和耐腐蝕性是 Twaron 增強熱塑性管道的顯著特徵。
產品差異化有限
產品差異化有限可能會阻礙對位芳綸纖維產業的創新。如果製造商認為幾乎沒有機會提供新穎的功能或解決未滿足的市場需求,他們可能就不太可能投資研發工作。缺乏創新限制了該行業發展和搶佔新市場的能力。
在對位芳綸纖維與碳纖維或高性能聚合物等知名材料競爭的地區,缺乏差異可能會阻礙商業應用。潛在客戶可能會對使用對位芳綸纖維猶豫不決,除非它們比現有選項具有明顯的優勢,從而阻礙市場成長。
Overview
Global Para-Aramid Fibers Market reached US$ 2.9 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 4.4 billion by 2031, growing with a CAGR of 5.3% during the forecast period 2024-2031.
Due to rising demand for lightweight and high-strength materials across a wide range of end-use sectors, the global para-aramid fibers market has grown steadily. These fibers are employed in a wide range of applications, including bulletproof vests and body armor as well as reinforced materials in automotive and aeronautical structures. Major para-aramid fiber manufacturers are expanding their presence in the US market through strategic alliances, acquisitions and investments in R&D facilities, changing client expectations.
For instance, on January 27, 2022, Durak Tekstil Para Aramid Thread made its U.S. Debut at the ISPA Expo. Durak Fire Safe Para Aramid sewing thread is desirable to mattress manufacturers because of its superior heat resistance, breaking strength and non-conductive qualities. Therefore, U.S. is contributing significantly to the growth of the regional market capturing more than 3/4th of the regional market share.
Dynamics
Growing Usage in Ballistics Protection Applications
The first-of-its-kind Kevlar EXO aramid fiber is superior and more durable than even the most advanced soft body armor materials available. Kevlar provides the highest ballistics performance of any aramid fiber without relinquishing weight, resulting in the best-in-class, lightest-weight ballistics soft armor options on the market presently. Kevlar and Twaron are two examples of para-aramid fibers that are excellent in terms of strength, heat resistance and chemical stability.
For instance, on April 14, 2023, the most significant aramid fiber invention in over 50 years, Kevlar EXO aramid fiber was introduced by DuPont. It is an entirely new technology platform designed to serve countless applications where protection and performance are needed in the face of extreme and demanding conditions. The first of many applications for Kevlar EXO, which will provide an unparalleled blend of light weight, flexibility and aramid fiber protection, will be life protection.
Driving Market Expansion Through High-Performance Para-Aramid Fibers
The market's reach is expanded by the emergence of high-performance para-aramid fibers, which address specific applications that were previously unfulfilled by traditional materials. Expanding product offers encourage innovation and market rivalry, which propels additional research and development in the para-aramid fiber industry.
Teijin Aramid Unveiled Technora and Twaron, Two High-Performance Para-Aramid Fibers. Worldwide, a wide range of markets and applications, including automotive, maritime, ballistic protection, civil engineering, protective apparel, optical fiber cables and oil and gas, employ its products. The high-pressure rating, low weight, outstanding adaptability and corrosion resistance are the distinguishing features of Twaron-reinforced thermoplastic pipes.
Limited Product Differentiation
Limited product differentiation may hamper innovation in the para-aramid fibers sector. Manufacturers are probably less likely to invest in R&D efforts if they perceive little chance to deliver novel features or solve unmet market needs. This lack of innovation limits the industry's capacity to evolve and grab new market niches.
In regions where para-aramid fibers compete with well-known materials such as carbon fibers or high-performance polymers, a lack of distinction might stymie commercial adoption. Potential customers may be hesitant to use para-aramid fibers unless they offer apparent advantages over existing options, impeding market growth.
The global para-aramid fibers market is segmented based on application, end-user and region.
Next-generation aramid Fibers with Electrical Conductivity
The development of such innovative materials not only generates new markets but also encourages innovation in a variety of sectors. It promotes cooperation among engineers, product designers and material scientists to investigate new uses and expand the realm of what is conceivable using innovative materials. These revolutionary fibers move the para-aramid fibers market into new realms of technological innovation and market expansion by broadening application options, addressing rising trends and providing competitive benefits.
For instance, KIST invented revolutionary super fiber-carbon nanotubes combined with "golden fiber" aramid to create conducive "black fiber" from Next-Generation aramid fiber with electrical conductivity.
Enhanced Supply Chain Reliability Fuels Growth in Asia-Pacific
The Asia-Pacific market will receive a more consistent and dependable supply of para-aramid fibers owing to an extended industry chain. This is essential to ensure ongoing production operations and on-time delivery to customers for companies whose products depend on these fibers. For instance, in 2023, Sinochem International debuted at the China International Optoelectronic Exposition 2023 on September 6-8, 2023, exhibiting its complete range of para-aramid products. These creative solutions serve as non-metallic reinforcing materials for optical-fiber cable applications and are specifically designed to suit the demands of the optical communication sector.
High-speed information networks depend heavily on optical communication links. Higher speeds, more capacity and a longer reach are requirements for optical transport networks in the age of next-generation communication technologies. Thus, greater performance characteristics such as increased strength, improved modulus, longer lifespan, lighter weight, less creep and increased corrosion resistance are required of optical communication cables. Therefore, this expansion contributes significantly to the growth of the China para-aramid fibers market.
Due to travel restrictions, plant closures and lockdown precautions, the pandemic caused disruptions in supply networks. Due to the disruption in the supply of equipment and raw materials required for the production of para-aramid fibers, manufacturing and project timeframes were delayed.
There was a rise in demand for para-aramid fibers in some industries notwithstanding the general decline. For example, the necessity for protection against the virus caused a spike in demand for para-aramid fibers, which are used in personal protective equipment, including masks and body armor.
Para-aramid fibers, among other raw materials utilized in numerous industries, are produced in large quantities in Ukraine. A war might cut off these resources, which would have an impact on the manufacturing of para-aramid fibers globally. The transfer of raw materials and completed products could be further hampered by disruptions to the region's ports, transportation routes and logistical infrastructure, which could result in a lack of supply and unstable prices.
Demand could have witnessed a slight decline in industries directly impacted by the conflict, including the building, infrastructure and automotive industries in the region. On the contrary, there can be a rise in the market for protective gear and apparatus, such as para-aramid fibers used in military uses.
The major global players in the market include SIKA AG, Nuvoco Vistas, BASF SE, Euclid Chemical Company, Butterfield Color, W. R. Meadows, Inc., BRICKFORM, Interstar Materials, Cemstone Products Company and L.M. Scofield Company.
The global para-aramid fibers market report would provide approximately 53 tables, 49 figures and 185 Pages.
