熱可塑性複合材料は、現在・将来の航空機部品にとって優れた材料であると考えられています。長年の研究開発と絶え間ない努力により業界のステークホルダーは、各種の金属部品だけでなく、熱硬化性複合材部品も置き換えることが可能になりました。 文字通りの非基幹的な活用分野での利用から、機体のような最も高性能な用途の一部となるまでに、複合材料は航空宇宙産業において目覚ましく飛躍的な進歩を遂げてきました。航空宇宙産業における燃費向上と二酸化炭素排出量削減のための軽量化要求の高まり、最新の航空機プログラムにおける複合材料の浸透の増加、熱可塑性複合材料が熱硬化性複合材料よりもリサイクル性に優れているという利点、更に加工コストが低いことが、需要を牽引する主な要因となっています。
市場は、新技術の進歩、航空機の生産率、FAAの規制、その他の要因によって大きな影響を受けています。大手企業は、既存の熱可塑性材料の進歩に懸命に取り組んでいます。一方向カーボンプリプレグも開発されており、これは高繊維含有量による軽量化をさらに可能にし、大量生産用に自動化生産工程で製造することができます。
航空宇宙・防衛 (A&D) 産業はパンデミックの深刻な余波から回復に向かっていますが、その影響はA&D向け熱可塑性複合材料市場にも見られます。A&D熱可塑性複合材料市場は、2023~2028年の間に18.6%の有望なCAGRで成長し、2028年には8億4,000万米ドルに達する見込みです。
セグメント別分析
機種別に見ると、民間機は、今後5年間も市場の最大セグメントであり、同期間中に最も高い成長を遂げる見込みです。A380の機体では、熱可塑性複合材料が1,000を超える部品に使用されており、その質量は5,000ポンド/2.27メートルトンを超え、航空機の総飛行重量の約7.5%に相当します。熱可塑性複合材は、787型機の胴体フレームの一部 (1機あたり約150個) に、シアーウェブという形で局所的な補強を施すためにも使用されています。A350XWB型機では平均して約8,000個のクリップが使用されているのに対し、B787型機では10,000~1万5,000個のクリップとクリートが使用されています。
樹脂の種類別に見ると。PEEKは市場における圧倒的な優位性を維持すると推定されます。A&D産業での使用を後押しする主な利点は、軽量化、高温下での優れた強度と耐薬品性、PPS樹脂よりも低い脆性です。PEEKは、クリップ、クリート、ブラケット、クランプ、コネクタを製造するために炭素繊維とともに使用されることが多いです。

Thermoplastic composite materials are considered excellent materials for current and future aircraft components. Years of R&D and continuous efforts assisted the industry stakeholders in replacing not only various metallic parts but also thermoset composite parts. From being used in nominal and non-crucial areas of application to being a part of the most high-performance applications such as fuselages, composites have had a striking and prodigious journey in the aerospace industry. Increasing demand for weight reduction to improve fuel economy and reduce carbon emissions in the aerospace industry, increasing penetration of composites in modern aircraft programs, and low processing cost coupled with the advantage of recyclability of thermoplastic composites over thermoset composites are some of the key factors driving the demand.
The market is highly impacted by new technological advancements, production rates of aircraft, FAA regulations, and other factors. Major players have been working hard for advancements in the existing thermoplastic materials. There has also been a development of a unidirectional carbon prepreg, which further allows weight savings through high fiber content and can be fabricated with an automated production process for high-volume production.
The A&D industry is on the road to recovery from the grave aftermath of the pandemic, the impact of which can also be seen in the A&D thermoplastic composites market. The A&D thermoplastic composites market is likely to grow at a promising CAGR of 18.6% during 2023-2028 to reach US$ 840 million in 2028.
Segment Analysis
Stratview Research has first segmented the A&D thermoplastic composites market based on the aircraft type into commercial aircraft, general aviation, military aircraft, and others. Commercial aircraft is expected to remain the largest segment of the market over the next five years and is also expected to experience the highest growth during the same period. Within the A380 airframe, thermoplastic composites account for more than 1,000 individual part numbers, representing a mass of more than 5,000 lb/2.27 metric tons or about 7.5% of the aircraft's total composite¬ airframe flyaway weight. Thermoplastic composites are also used to provide localized reinforcement between some of the fuselage frames, in the form of shear webs, on the 787 (about 150 per aircraft). On average, about 8,000 clips are used in an A350XWB aircraft, whereas there are 10,000 to 15,000 such clips and cleats in a B787 aircraft.
Based on the resin type, the A&D thermoplastic composites market is segmented into PPS-based composites, PEEK-based composites, PEI-based composites, and other composites. PEEK is estimated to maintain its huge dominance in the market. Key advantages that drive its usage in the A&D industry are weight reduction, excellent strength and chemical resistance at elevated temperatures, and lower brittleness than PPS resin. PEEK is often used with carbon fiber to fabricate clips, cleats, brackets, clamps, and connectors.
Based on the application type, the market is segmented into interior, airframe, and others. Airframe holds a giant share of the market with a good level of thermoplastic composite penetration in the application segment. Key application areas in the airframe segment are clips, cleats, leading edges, panels for the fuselage, shear webs, stringers, ribs, rudders, and elevators. There is also growing interest in thermoplastic composites in interiors with floor panels, brackets, profiles, and seat backs being key applications.
Based on the fiber type, the market is segmented into carbon fiber composites and glass fiber composites. Carbon fiber composite is estimated to maintain its huge dominance in the market in the foreseen future. Excellent weight reduction, high strength-to-weight ratio, a high tensile and compressive strength, a low coefficient of thermal expansion, and high fatigue resistance are some key advantages that drive the segments' market. On the other hand, glass fiber composite holds a niche market with good prevalence in interior applications where it meets desired performance.
Based on the process type, the market is segmented as compression molding, bagging, and injection molding. Compression molding is expected to remain the dominant process type in the market during the forecast period. Compression molding offers faster part cycle time, reduced part waste, and reduced defects, which overall lead to lower cost. By monitoring the temperature during the molding process, quality and process consistency also improve.
In terms of regions, Europe is expected to remain the largest market over the next five years. Germany, France, and the UK are the leading markets in the region. Airbus is the major consumer of thermoplastic composites. Major tier players have set up manufacturing plants in high proximity to Airbus' assembly plants to fulfill their emerging requirements for its next-generation aircraft programs. North America also holds a reasonable share in the A&D thermoplastic composites market. Boeing and Gulfstream Aerospace are the key OEMs, which are creating a healthy demand for thermoplastic composite parts in the region
