Circuit Materials Market by Material Class (Substrate, Conducting Material, Outer Layer), Substrate (Fiberglass Epoxy, Paper-Phenolic), Conducting Material (Copper), Outer Layer (LIPSM, Dry Film Photoimageable), Application, Region - Global Forecast 2023

The circuit materials market is projected to register a CAGR of 3.8%, in terms of value, between 2018 and 2023
The circuit materials market size is estimated to be USD 30.58 billion in 2018 and is projected to reach USD 36.85 billion by 2023, at a CAGR of 3.8% between 2018 and 2023. The increasing demand for circuit materials due to technological advancements in the electronics sector is the most significant factor projected to drive the market. The technological developments in the developing economies are also contributing to the circuit materials market growth. However, the low supply of copper foil to the electronic industry is acting as a restraint to the market growth.    

The copper conducting material segment of the circuit materials market is projected to register the highest CAGR, in terms of value, during the forecast period 
Copper is used as a conducting layer on the various types of substrates such as fiberglass-epoxy, paper-phenolic, and CEM. The use of copper as a conducting material offers excellent current conductivity and electromagnetic shielding which enhances the performance of various electronic devices. Also, when copper is applied on various substrates, it can be chemically etched to divide the copper layer into separate conducting lines called tracks or circuit traces. This chemical etching process is easy to achieve with copper compared to other conducting materials. The ease of chemical processing and better conductivity have increased the demand for copper as a conducting material and has helped it to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
