Your Catalyst to a Lucrative Business
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 transparency 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.
Major companies operating in the worldwide aerospace plastic flame retardant market are RTP
Company, Albemarle Corporation, Huber Engineered Materials, and Chemtura Corporation. Most
leading participants are largely integrated along the value chain.
