概要
世界のCF&CFRP(炭素繊維および炭素繊維強化プラスチック)市場は、2023年に331億米ドルに達し、2031年には849億米ドルに達すると予測され、予測期間2024-2031年のCAGRは12.5%で成長します。
家庭用電子機器産業は、世界市場に大きな成長の道を開く可能性があります。2023年12月、中国の大手家電メーカーであるレノボは、同社の人気ノートパソコンThinkPadシリーズのボディに、東レが開発した再生炭素繊維を使用すると発表しました。
炭素繊維の需要が急増しているにもかかわらず、全体のリサイクル能力はそれほど伸びていないです。複合材料がエンジニアリング用途でより一般的になるにつれ、リサイクルおよび再生複合材料の利用を強化する必要性が高まっています。リサイクル能力が低いままである限り、世界市場の成長は妨げられると思われます。
ダイナミクス
航空宇宙用途における炭素繊維の採用増加
最近の民間旅客機は、アルミ合金の代わりに炭素繊維複合材を機体構造に採用しています。これは軽量化と燃料効率の向上に役立ちます。新しいエアバスA350やボーイング787は、この動向の最も顕著な例です。軍用機もまた、複合材が航空機のステルス特性を向上させるため、複合材を利用しています。米国のロッキード・マーチンF-35、韓国のKF-21ボラマエ、ロシアのスホーイSu-57は、複合材を利用した第5世代ステルス戦闘機の一部です。
宇宙打ち上げロケットも、ペイロードフェアリングや燃料タンクの製造に炭素繊維複合材を利用しています。スペースX社のファルコン9ロケットは、推進剤タンクやフェアリングに炭素繊維複合材を多用しています。民間宇宙会社が宇宙打上げ産業でますます重要な役割を担うようになっており、航空宇宙分野からの炭素繊維複合材に対する需要は今後数年間増加し続けると思われます。
世界の風力エネルギー生産の成長
国際エネルギー機関(IEA)のデータによると、2023年の世界の風力エネルギー生産量は前年比14%増の906GWに達します。さらに、世界風力エネルギー協議会(GWEC)は、2023年から2028年までの今後5年間に、680GW近くの新規容量が追加されると予測しています。この期間に追加される世界の風力発電容量のほぼ半分を中国が占めると予想されています。
風力タービンは、全体的な重量を軽減し、輸送や設置を比較的容易にするため、ほぼ独占的に炭素繊維複合材料から製造されています。さらに、複合材を使用することで腐食がなく、風力タービンは季節を問わず稼働し続けることができます。風力エネルギー生産の拡大は、予測期間中も大きな需要を生み出し続けると思われます。
統一された規制基準の欠如
炭素繊維とその複合材料は比較的新しい材料であるため、世界の規制ガイドラインと基準は時代の変化に合わせてまだ進化していないです。鋼合金、アルミニウム、チタンなど、より主流な材料とは異なり、材料の性能や基準に関する国際的な統一ガイドラインは現在のところ存在しないです。そのため、各メーカーが独自の基準を設けています。
統一された規格がないため、各エンドユーザーが規格の範囲内であることを再確認する必要があり、相互運用性が妨げられ、世界市場の成長に支障をきたしています。時間がかかるだけでなく、金属合金のような標準化された材料の安全性を好み、炭素繊維複合材料の利用を妨げることにもなります。
Overview
Global CF & CFRP (Carbon Fibers And Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics) Market reached US$ 33.1 Billion in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 84.9 Billion by 2031, growing with a CAGR of 12.5% during the forecast period 2024-2031.
The consumer electronics industry could potentially open up a major avenue of growth for the global market. In December 2023, the Chinese consumer electronic giant Lenovo announced that it was using recycled carbon fiber developed by Toray Industries Ltd, for fabricating the body of its popular ThinkPad series of laptops.
Overall recycling capacity hasn't grown much, even as demand for carbon fiber increases rapidly. As composites become more common in engineering applications, there is a glaring need to step up the usage of recycled and reclaimed composites. As long as the recycling capacity remains low, it will hamstring global market growth.
Dynamics
Increasing Adoption of Carbon Fiber in Aerospace Applications
Modern commercial airliners have substituted aluminum alloys for carbon fiber composites in their body structure. It helps in reducing weight and improving fuel efficiency. The new Airbus A350 and the Boeing 787 are the most prominent examples of this trend. Military aircraft are also making usage of composite materials since it improves the aircraft's stealth characteristics. The U.S.'s Lockheed Martin F-35, South Korea's KF-21 Boramae and Russia's Sukhoi Su-57 are some of the fifth generation stealth fighter jets which make use of composite materials.
Space launch vehicles are also utilizing carbon fiber composites for manufacturing payload fairings and fuel tanks. The Falcon 9 launch rocket of SpaceX makes extensive usage of carbon fiber composites for its propellant tanks and fairings. With private space companies becoming increasingly important players in the space launch industry, the demand for carbon fiber composites from the aerospace sector will continue to rise in the coming years.
Growth of Global Wind Energy Production
According to data from the international energy agency (IEA), global wind energy production increased by 14% in 2023 from the previous year to reach 906 GW. The global wind energy council (GWEC) further estimates that nearly 680 GW of new capacity will added over the next five years from 2023 to 2028. China is expected to account for nearly half of the total global wind energy capacity addition over this period.
Wind turbines are almost exclusively manufactured from carbon fiber composites in order to reduce overall weight and make transportation and installation relatively easier. Furthermore, composite usage ensures that there is no corrosion and that the wind turbine can remain operational throughout the seasons. The expansion of wind energy production will continue to generate significant demand during the forecast period.
Lack of Uniform Regulatory Standards
Since carbon fiber and its composites are relatively new materials, global regulatory guidelines and standards have not yet evolved in line with changing times. Unlike more mainstream materials like steel alloys, aluminum and titanium, there are currently no uniform international guidelines for material performance and standards. As a result, each manufacturer devises his own standards.
The lack of uniform standards handicaps global market growth by preventing interoperability, as each end-user needs to re-verify the specifications to ensure that there are within bounds. Not only is it more time-consuming, but also prevents the industries from utilizing carbon fiber composites, instead preferring the safety of standardized materials like metal alloys.
The global CF & CFRP market is segmented based on source, precursor, resin, modulus, manufacturing process, end-user and region.
Virgin Carbon Fiber Will Continue to Remain the Main Source for CFRP Production
Since the application of carbon fiber and its derivatives is increasing in various engineering industries, the demand for virgin carbon fiber has grown over the past decade. A key advantages of using virgin carbon fiber is that its production can be scaled up rapidly, allowing producers to respond quickly to changes in demand dynamics. Also, anew production methods have led to a reduction in carbon fiber prices.
Modern recycling technologies have ensured that nearly 90% of carbon fiber can be reused without compromising its mechanical properties. However, there isn't a lot of recycled carbon fiber that can be utilized for industrial applications. It will take another decade of sustained demand growth to see an appreciable increase in the usage of recycled carbon fiber.
Asia-Pacific Will Have the Fastest Market Growth
China is currently in the midst of a decades-long plan to increase the share of renewables within its energy mix. It is partially linked towards reducing dependence on imported fossil fuels. Chinese OEMs accounted for nearly 85% of the global production of onshore wind turbines in 2023. India also increased its installed capacity by 53% in 2023 and is expected to follow China by having the second-highest total capacity in the region.
Apart from wind energy, the aerospace sector in Asia-Pacific has witnessed a boom in demand for carbon fiber composites. India is set to launch its first manned space mission, Gaganyaan in mid to late 2025. Similarly, China has committed towards launching a manned lunar mission by early 2031. The expansion of national space programs will create major growth opportunities for the market over the long term.
For manufacturers, the key challenge during the beginning of the pandemic was fulfilling existing orders, especially as lockdowns began to disrupt global trade. Research and development projects of the industry also began to suffer as most companies drastically slashed R&D budgets to stay afloat.
The pandemic period did lead to an overall decline in the market, however demand recovered strongly, especially in aerospace and electronics manufacturing industries. Companies are also devoting a large amount of capital towards accelerating high-value R&D. Overall, there will not be any negative implications in the long term for the global CF & CFRP market due to the pandemic.
The war has mostly impacted the markets for carbon fiber and its composites in Russia and Ukraine. Ukraine has experienced widespread devastation due to the war and hence, civilian demand for carbon fiber has been almost entirely wiped out. Currently, most demand is generated by Ukrainian military for air and naval drone manufacturing.
In Russia, the trade embargoes put in place by U.S. and EU have cutoff access to western-made carbon fiber supplies for domestic companies. To keep up defence production, many Russian companies are actively using shell corporations and routing shipping through third countries to source material from western companies. Furthermore, under a government directive, domestic producers have increased the production of carbon fiber reinforced composite materials.
By Manufacturing Process
The major global players in the market include Toray Industries Ltd., Teijin Limited, Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation, Hexcel Corporation, Solvay SA, SGL Carbon, Kureha Corporation, Hyosung Advanced Materials, Jilin Chemical Fiber Co., Ltd. and Jiangsu Hengshen Co., Ltd.
