Global Carbon Fiber Resin Market Definition

Carbon Fiber Resin (CCS) is a pollution control process that is engineered and built to eliminate significant volumes of CO2 from being emitted into the atmosphere. Aside from that, the technology includes CO2 transportation, collection, and injection to keep CO2 from escaping into the atmosphere. The method consists of three technologies: capture, transfer, and storage. The capture method entails separating CO2 from gases generated by various procedures.

The transport method entails transporting captured CO2 to a suitable location for storage through pipelines. CO2 is injected into an underwater deep well, used for rock formations, and depleted ponds as part of the storage process. Carbon fibers are known to minimize total vehicular weight and to produce better and high-performance wind turbines and are thus favored as suitable fabrics for vehicles, airplanes, and wind turbines.

Global Carbon Fiber Resin Market Overview

Regulations and a move toward fuel efficiency in the automobile and aerospace industries are expected to propel the Market. The recent regulations such as the Corporate Average Fuel Efficiency (CAFE) guidelines, which mandate automakers to meet minimum fuel economy specifications for their fleets of vehicles sold in the United States, are expected to drive demand for lightweight carbon fiber-based composite materials and drive the market growth.

The market's expansion is due to the increasing demand for lightweight and powerful composite materials from numerous end-use sectors, such as aerospace and defense, which is driving up demand for carbon fiber resin. The Market is also growing due to different properties such as strength and stiffness, corrosion resistance, chemical resistance, high viscosity, and a variety of others.

The high cost of carbon fiber is a significant restraint to its use in low-cost and non-premium segments of cars. The additives such as carbon steel and polymer derivatives pose a significant threat to the material. These conditions are likely to restrain its widespread use and, to some degree, limit the development of the Market in the future. The extensive R&D activities to produce low-cost composite grades with mechanical properties comparable to those of high-cost versions is expected to drive composites demand in the automotive industry and create opportunities for the growth of the Market.
