The market is categorized by products, applications, and regions. Products include
Aluminum Trihydrate (ATH), antimony oxide, boron compounds,
organophosphates/phosphorous, and others. ATH accounted for 40% of the overall
demand in 2014. Ammonium polyphosphate, red phosphorous and other
organophosphates came up as the fastest-growing products in the same year.
Organophosphates compounds are anticipated to register the fastest growth (CAGR over
6%) over the forecast period (2015-2022).
Based on the applications, the global aerospace plastic flame retardant market is divided
into Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics (CFRP), Glass Reinforced Plastics (GRP), thermoset
polyimides, polycarbonates, epoxies, acetal/POM, and others. Others comprise
polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), polyphthalamide (PPA), and polypropylene (PP).
CFRP was the biggest application, occupying 30% of the total volumes in 2014. It would
grow at the fastest rate (CAGR exceeding 6%) over the next seven years. Polycarbonates
sector may also experience high demand due to properties such as high transp arency and
optical clarity, along with tremendous toughness.
Regional segments consist of Europe, Asia Pacific, North America, and RoW (Rest of the
World). Europe, with 44% of the global demand, was the largest regional market in 2014. It
is home to leading airline groups (Airbus, Boeing, Rolls-Royce Holding, etc.). However,
stringent monitoring of European airspace and the manufacturing industry is resulting in
lesser production of halogenated retardants.
Asia-Pacific could be the fastest-growing regional market (CAGR of 7%) during the forecast
period. This may be attributed to a robust aviation sector and rising disposable incomes in
developing countries like India, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, etc.
