According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Liquid Crystalline Polymers Market is accounted for $1.22 billion in 2021 and is expected to reach $2.41 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 10.2% during the forecast period. Liquid crystal polymers are a class of unique aromatic polymers based on 4-hydroxybenzoic acid and related monomers. Liquid crystal polymers possess excellent properties - they are fire-resistant at high temperatures and chemically resistant in very thin-walled applications.
Market Dynamics:
Driver:
Introduction of new generation technologies
Technologies such as 5G and 3D printing are key drivers in increasing demand for liquid crystal polymers. The demand for liquid crystal polymers is growing at a very rapid pace with a huge number of applications, ranging from electrical & electronics and automotive to consumer goods, sports, leisure, and medical devices. Moreover, the increasing application of liquid crystal polymer films in flexible solar cells, due to their exceptional heat resistance and low water absorbency is also underpinning gains for the market. In the emerging 5G communication, liquid crystal polymers are being viewed on a large scale as novel materials with an optimistic outlook for mobile phone antennas.
Restraint:
High cost
The cost of liquid crystal polymers is usually high compared to traditional polymers which is a key challenge and this might affect the market's growth. The manufacturing process of liquid crystal polymers is an energy-intensive and complex process, resulting in high-cost prices. Such high-cost nature of liquid crystal polymers might affect the market's growth during the forecast period. To manufacture liquid crystal polymers, products with high-temperature functions and a high level of technical expertise are needed. So, both the manufacturing process and the final liquid crystal polymer products are expensive. The high price of liquid crystal polymers limits their use to high-end application areas, thus restricting the market growth.
Opportunity:
Emerging market for thermoplastic polymers
Thermoplastics have the characteristics to become liquid when heated and back to the solid-state when cooled. The cycle of melting and freezing can be recurrent. This will allow the plastic to be reshaped by heating it. Liquid crystal polymers are the major thermoplastics utilized for high-temperature applications in various end-use industries. Because of their properties, thermoplastic polymers are gaining importance as an alternative to traditional materials. Thermoplastics are likely to have many emerging applications in the near future, which will further enhance the growth prospects for liquid crystal polymers.
Threat:
Limited market opportunities in developed countries
The US, Germany, the UK, and Japan have highly developed economies and advanced industrial activities. They have a well-established infrastructure for the public, commercial, and transportation sectors. The developed infrastructure in these countries signifies low prospects for new players. Therefore, there is limited scope for the growth of the liquid crystalline polymer market in these countries. Manufacturers of hybrid adhesives & sealants need to develop innovative products to capture newer markets. Thus, limited market opportunities in developed countries act as a key challenge for the growth of the liquid crystalline polymers market.
The thermotropic segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period
The thermotropic segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth as this type of polymer has excellent thermal properties, low viscosity, and exhibits superior elastic behavior. Thermotropic liquid crystal polymers are extensively recognized polymers owing to their application in various electronics. Because of such diverse properties and uses, market players and research organizations are expanding the portfolio of thermotropic liquid crystal polymer.
The electrical & electronics segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period
The electrical & electronics segment is anticipated to witness the fastest CAGR growth during the forecast period owing to the massive growth in the demand for electronic products globally. The high-quality properties of liquid crystal polymers allow the massive use of liquid crystal polymers in various electronic product components and parts such as antenna substrates and housings, chip carriers, flexible printed circuits, etc.
Region with highest share:
Asia Pacific is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period due to rapid expansion of the electrical & electronics industry, increasing domestic demand, coupled with affordable manufacturing facilities, and increasing population and demands, accompanied by initiatives for new technologies and products. The increasing electrical & electronics, automobile, and consumer goods industries are propelling the demand for liquid crystal polymers in the region.
Region with highest CAGR:
Europe is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period owing to the presence of major automotive OEMs along with consumer inclination towards high-end automobiles, recent advancements in vehicular electronic devices complementing compact design and impact resistance, and increasing industrial machinery application substituting ceramic materials and mass transfer packaging in chemical industries.
