Global Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) Market Overview
The global market for liquid crystal polymers (LCP) is anticipated to witness healthy growth, growing at a CAGR of approximately 5% during the forecast period. LCP is a super engineering plastic, with a combination of high modulus, strength and impact properties, resistance to a broad range of aggressive chemicals, low and tailorable coefficients of thermal expansion (CTE), thin-wall flowability, outstanding dimensional stability and unique processability. One of the main factors
Global Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) Market Segmentation
The global market for liquid crystal polymer is categorized based on type, end-user industry and regions. Based on typethe market is segmented as thermotropic and lyotropic, while based on end-user industrythe market is segmented as electrical & electronics, industrial machinery, automotive, consumer goods, others. Notably, among the various end-user industries, the electrical & electronics segment is rising owing to the growing demand for miniaturization of electrical and electronic components, wherein the manufacturers are streamlining devices to contain more features into smaller packages. Regular use of electronics, such as cell phones, tablet PCs or laptops is growing rapidly. Simultaneously, these devices are becoming inexpensive and more powerful from generation to generation, while declining in weight and size.
Global Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) Regional Segmentation and Trends
Regionally, the liquid crystal polymer market is segmented as North America, South America, Europe, Asia Pacific and Middle-east and Africa. Among these regions, the Europe is anticipated to be the fastest growing region of the liquid crystal polymer market during the forecast period. Further, Asia Pacific (APAC) is the expected to continue its dominance as the largest market for liquid crystal polymer. Globally, China is the largest electronics production base and offers stiff competition to the existing upstream producers, such as Singapore, South Korea and Taiwan. The electronics manufacturing industry is continuously moving to China, due to increasing demand and low cost of electronics products. Furthermore, with the growing disposable income of the middle-class population, the demand for electronics is expected to grow in the future, thus, driving the liquid crystalline polymers market.
In addition, the US aircraft giant Boeing and Chinese aviation manufacturer Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China Ltd (COMAC), are planning to build a Boeing 737 production system, which is expected to start its operation soon. This factor is likely to propel the aerospace manufacturing industry, which, in turn, is anticipated to boost the demand for liquid crystalline polymers, for aerospace and aviation applications.
