Executive Summary

Conventionally, metals are the most widely used materials in heat management with high intrinsic heat conductivities. However, the drawbacks associated with these materials, such as their high price and high density (weight), have led to increased demand for other materials. One such group of alternative materials is thermally conductive plastics, which are widely used in electric and electronics industry applications due to their high thermal resistance.

In addition to lightweight construction, thermally conductive plastics also offer the opportunity to produce complex geometries quickly and cost-efficiently by means of casting technologies or injection molding. These developments will have a strong effect on forthcoming solutions in the automotive, mobility, electronics and electrical devices industries.

Reasons for Doing This Study:

The goals of this report are to provide a regional assessment of the potential of the market for thermally conductive plastics, as well as to estimate existing and projected future market sizes, current technologies, and future trends in the development of thermally conductive plastics. Thermally conductive plastics have been in existence for many decades and continue to evolve and expand into new markets. Within this context, this report identifies the market potential for thermally conductive plastics demand in each global region, and the end-user application market for the timeframe of 2020 to 2026.

As the range of applications for thermally conductive plastics has broadened, highly specific demands have been imposed on the materials used. Over the past few years, growth in the electrical and electronics, automotive, aerospace, and healthcare industries in the Asia-Pacific and North American regions has opened many opportunities for thermally conductive plastics applications. In these regions, rising disposable incomes, coupled with growing awareness of the benefits of using thermally conductive plastics in high-demand applications, has created a surge in demand for these products.

The growing use of thermally conductive plastics in many industries has been fueled by these products’ ability to satisfy a wide array of customer needs, as well as the rapid commercialization of their customization. Confusion among manufacturers of thermally conductive plastics market is widespread due to differing growth trends in specific types of thermally conductive plastics, such as polyamide, polybutylene terephthalate, polycarbonate, polyphenylene sulfide and polyetherimide. In this context, a comprehensive market research study is required to provide these companies with a clear understanding of each segment.
