Silicon Carbide Fibers Market Segment Insights:
By Industry Type:
Aerospace and Defense segment is expected to experience the fastest growth during the forecast period driven by continuous development of new applications in high temperature areas (1,100°C to 1,600°C) of the aircraft engines. SiC Fibers based composites have one-third density to the nearest rival Nickel metal alloys and therefore reduce the overall engine weight significantly. Further, high temperature properties of ceramic matrix composites enhance overall engine performance, durability, and fuel economy. LEAP engine, developed by CFM International for A320neo and B737max platforms will have SiC fibers based ceramic matrix composites in its turbine shrouds. Shrouds are stationary parts in the high pressure turbine that direct air and ensure turbine blade efficiency.
By Application Type:
Composites (CMC, MMC, and PMC) is expected to remain the largest SiC application type during the forecast period. Ceramic matrix composites are the leading composites type and are used in the many applications from aerospace to power generation to nuclear industry.
By Region:
North America is expected to remain the largest market for SiC fibers during the forecast period driven by presence of major aircraft engine manufacturers and high demand of CMC components in other industries including power generation and nuclear. Asia-Pacific region is expected to witness the fastest growth during the forecast period, driven by growing aerospace and defense industry.
Key Players:
The supply chain of this market comprises raw material suppliers, SiC fiber manufacturers, composite parts manufacturers, engine manufacturers, OEMs, and airline companies. The key SiC fiber manufacturers are NGS Advanced Fibers Co. Ltd., COI Ceramics, Specialty Materials, Saint-Gobain, UBE Industries, and Volzhsky Abrasive Works.
