Global Recycled Carbon Fiber Market.
Market Synopsis
Global Recycled Carbon Fiber Market is expected to grow at 12% CAGR during the review period.
The increasing demand for carbon fibers in numerous end-use industries, including aerospace & defense, automotive, wind energy, and sports, owing to their superior properties, is the primary factor propelling the growth of the recycled carbon fiber market. Additionally, regulations on landfills have resulted in increased spending on recycling of waste carbon fiber, which is driving the market growth. Furthermore, recycled carbon fibers are cost-effective, energy-efficient, and possess properties similar to virgin carbon fiber, making it suitable for use in numerous applications. However, the preference for virgin carbon fiber in high-end applications due to quality constraints among the end-product manufacturers is likely to hamper the market growth.
Segmentation
By Type: The recycled carbon fiber market can primarily be categorized into non-woven mats, milled carbon fiber, and chopped carbon fiber.
- Non-Woven Mats—The non-woven mats segment growth is likely to be driven by the increasing demand in the automotive industry owing to characteristics such as lightweight and cost-efficiency. It finds use in various processes, including closed/open mold infusion, prepreg, and compression molding. It can also be used in thermoset and thermoplastic matrix systems.
- Milled Carbon Fiber—Milled carbon fibers are used in various applications, including subsea buoyancy for offshore oil and gas exploration, conductive materials, additive manufacturing, and compounding. The milled chopped carbon fibers are used to improve the mechanical properties of polymer compounds for injection molding.
- Chopped Carbon Fiber—Chopped carbon fibers offer superior structural and electrically conductive properties as compared to milled fibers. Chopped carbon fibers are widely being used in bulk moulding compounds, coatings, and reinforced concrete.
