簡介目錄

預測期內,低收縮添加劑市場預計將以超過 7% 的複合年增長率增長。

推動市場發展的主要因素是汽車行業對高性能 SMC(片狀模塑料)配方的需求不斷增長,以及纖維增強塑料 (FRP) 新應用的出現。 然而,由於可交聯的苯乙烯單體導致不飽和聚酯樹脂的高聚合收縮率預計會阻礙市場增長。

主要亮點

  • 注塑和壓縮成型(片狀模塑料 (SMC)、塊狀模塑料 (BMC))應用佔據了大部分市場。 由於汽車、航空航天和國防以及醫療行業等終端用戶的消費量增加,預計在預測期內會出現增長。
  • 此外,再生塑料材料使用的持續擴大可能會帶來未來的商機。
  • 亞太地區主導著全球市場,其中中國和日本是最大的消費者。

低收縮添加劑的市場趨勢

汽車行業對高性能 SMC(片狀模塑料)配方的需求增加

  • 汽車工業目前正面臨一個重要的能源轉折點,即發展完全符合環境約束的汽車。
    • 將汽車重量減輕 100 公斤,每行駛一公裡最多可減少 12.5 克二氧化碳排放。 也就是說,汽車每減輕1kg的重量,在汽車的整個生命週期內就可以減少20kg的溫室氣體排放。 此外,汽油價格的波動和逐漸上漲可能會增加對省油、輕型車輛的需求。
  • 在這種情況下,減輕汽車的整體重量極為重要。 因此,越來越多的運動用輕質複合材料代替重型鋼部件。
    • 在一輛典型的汽車中,纖維複合材料的用量按體積增加 50%,而重量僅增加 10%。 在美國,政府已將新車的燃油經濟性要求提高到 2025 年每加侖 54.5 英裡。 因此,企業開始使用碳纖維等複合材料來減輕汽車重量,提高燃油效率。
  • 片狀模塑料 (SMC) 是一種複合材料,由於其重量輕、成本低和機械性能出色,長期以來一直用於汽車行業。 這些 SMC 採用熱塑性低收縮添加劑 (LPA) 配製而成,以補償聚合收縮。
  • 這樣,汽車行業的擴張刺激了低收縮添加劑市場的需求。 它還具有在不久的將來推動增長的潛力。

北美主導市場

  • 北美約佔全球需求的 35%,是低收縮添加劑最有前途的市場。 這種主導地位歸因於該地區纖維增強塑料市場需求的增加。
  • 美國占該地區 80% 以上的低收縮添加劑需求。 憑藉其技術驅動的經濟,美國是世界上最大的複合材料市場之一。 這個龐大的複合材料市場,造就了美國目前在低收縮添加劑市場的地位。
  • 在過去幾年中,SMC 配方和加工方面的創新促使美國將 SMC 用於電動汽車和混合動力汽車部件,例如電池蓋、感應充電板、舉升門和發動機保護器。 SMC 使用的增加有助於推動該國的低收縮添加劑市場。
  • 交通運輸行業是複合材料和低收縮添加劑的最大終端用戶行業。 運輸行業一直在尋找創新材料來幫助減輕車輛重量、燃油效率和碳足跡目標。
  • 複合材料和低收縮添加劑還廣泛用於美國航空航天工業的商用和軍用飛機、直升機、公務機、商用客機和航天器。
  • 總體而言,隨著美國和加拿大的穩定增長,該地區對低收縮添加劑的需求預計在未來幾年將以更快的速度增長。 北美的巨大增長將非常有利於擴大整個低調添加劑市場。

The market for low profile additives is expected to register a CAGR of more than 7%, during the forecast period. Major factors driving the market studied are the rising demand for high-performance SMC (Sheet Molding Compound) formulations from the automotive industry, and emerging applications in fiber-reinforced plastics (FRP). However, high polymerization shrinkage of unsaturated polyester resin with the crosslinking styrene monomer is expected to hinder the market growth.

Key Highlights

  • The injection and compression molding (sheet molding compounds (SMC) and bulk molding compounds (BMC)) application segment dominated the market. It is expected to grow during the forecast period, owing to its increasing consumption in end-users, like the automotive, aerospace and defense, and medical industries.
  • The continuously growing trend of using recycled plastic materials is likely to act as an opportunity in the future.
  • Asia-Pacific dominated the global market, with the largest consumption from China and Japan.

Low Profile Additives Market Trends

Increase in Demand for High-performance SMC (Sheet Molding Compound) Formulations from Automotive Industry

  • The automotive industry is currently following an important energetic transition, with the development of vehicles in compliance to drastic environmental constraints.
    • A vehicle weight reduction of 100 kg saves up to 12.5 g of CO2 emissions every kilometer. In other words, every kilogram in car weight reduction can save 20 kg of greenhouse gas emissions throughout the lifetime of a car. Furthermore, volatile and gradually increasing gas prices may lead to a higher demand for lightweight cars, with higher fuel efficiency.
  • In this scenario, the reduction of the overall weight of cars is crucial. The substitution of heavy steel parts by lightweight composite materials is gaining momentum.
    • In a typical automobile, the use of fiber composites is 50% by volume, while adding just 10% of the weight. In the United States, the government raised the fuel efficiency requirements for new automobiles to 54.5 miles per gallon, by 2025, for the US market. Therefore, the companies have started using composite materials, such as carbon fiber, to make vehicles lightweight and fuel-efficient.
  • Sheet molding compounds (SMCs) are a class of composite materials that have been used in the automotive industry for a long time, owing to their low weight, low cost, and good mechanical properties. These SMC formulations are blended with a thermoplastic low profile additive (LPA), to compensate for polymerization shrinkage.
  • Thus, the expanding automotive industry is fueling the demand for the low profile additives market. It also has the potential to propel growth in the near future.

North American Region to Dominate the Market

  • With almost 35% of the global demand, North America is the most promising market for low profile additives. This domination can be attributed to the rising demand for the fiber-reinforced plastics market in the region.
  • The United States accounts for over 80% of the demand for low profile additives in the region. With its technology-driven economic base, the United States is one of the world's largest markets for composite materials. This huge market for composite materials is responsible for the country's current position in the low profile additives market.
  • In the fast few years, SMC formulation and processing innovations have boosted the volume of SMC in EV and hybrid automotive parts, like battery covers, inductive charging plates, lift gates, and engine protectors, in the United States. This boosted volume of SMC is instrumental in propelling the market for low profile additives in the country.
  • The transportation sector is the largest end-user industry for composite materials and low profile additives. The transportation industry is continuously looking for innovative materials, to help reduce vehicle weight and achieve fuel efficiency and carbon emission targets.
  • Commercial aircraft, military craft, helicopters, business jets, general aviation aircraft, and spacecraft of the aerospace industry in the United States also make substantial use of composites and low profile additives.
  • Overall, with consistent growth in the United States and Canada, the demand for low profile additives is expected to increase at a faster pace in the region, in the coming years. The huge growth of North America is quite instrumental in the expansion of the overall low profile additives market.
