Aerospace Plastics Market Forecasted to Grow at Steady Pace During 2023-2030: Grand View Research Inc.

 Aerospace Plastics Market Growth & Trends

The global aerospace plastics market size is expected to reach USD 13.89 billion by 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 9.0% from 2023 to 2030. Non-corrosive nature and high-temperature resistance of plastics are expected to bolster market growth over the forecast period.

Aerospace plastics exhibit high strength and heat resistance and properties. It's high modulus of elasticity aids in the production of various aircraft components such as empennage, airframe, and fuselage. In addition, plastics are lightweight nevertheless high-performance alternatives to metals such as steel and aluminum; as a result, the market is expected to grow significantly.

Easy adoption in aircraft designs coupled with high durability and chemical resistance offered by the product is expected to drive market over the forecast period. However, the components manufactured with the use of plastic polymers are hard to inspect for flaws, leading to quality variations and defects resulting in increased incidents of plastic fracture. This leads to high operating repair and maintenance costs are posing a threat to aerospace plastics market growth.

Aerospace plastics provide a high degree of freedom in the designing of complicated components of an aircraft. This has resulted in an increase in the percentage of material utilization in manufacturing military and commercial aircraft significantly over the past couple of decades, which in turn has bolstered the demand for plastics in aerospace applications.

Commercial aircraft manufacturers are entering into supply agreements with plastic resins & composite manufacturers to develop a reliable supply channel for their aircraft components. In November 2020, Boeing awarded a long-term enterprise agreement to Solvay for supplying advanced materials such as adhesives, surfacing films, and thermoplastic and thermoset, composites for aircraft interior section, secondary structures, and primary structures.
