Polyetherimide (PEI) Market by Form (Film, Sheet, Granule, Tube, Rod), Grade (Reinforced, Unreinforced), Process Type (Injection Molding, Extrusion, Thermoforming, Compression Molding), End-use Industry, and Region - Global Forecast to 2024
[150 Pages Report] The market for PEI is projected to grow from USD 522 million in 2019 to USD 714 million by 2024, at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period. PEI is a high-performance polymer with both ether links and imide groups in its polymer chain. It is used in high-temperature applications where fast dissipation of heat is essential. Due to its creep resistance, low smoke emission, and flame resistance, the demand for PEI as a thermally conductive plastic has increased significantly. PEI, along with thermally conductive fillers, is a cost-effective solution to metals due to lesser manufacturing steps and joints. PEI is widely used as an alternative to metals in compact electronic gadgets, as it increases the performance of compact electronics by heat dissipation. In addition to the electronics industry, PEI is used in transportation, medical, consumer good, and industrial end-use industries.
Transportation is projected to be the fastest-growing end-use industry during the forecast period.
The transportation end-use industry is the fastest-growing segment of the polyetherimide (PEI) market. In terms of volume, the transportation end-use industry is estimated to lead the PEI market, while the electrical & electronics segment is estimated to account for the second-largest share of the global polyetherimide (PEI) market. The use of PEI has been increasing due to its ability to replace metal and other thermosets and bulk molding compounds. PEI is apt for applications that require high heat resistance, strength, and chemical resistance. The largest application of PEI is in the electrical and lighting systems, followed by under-the-hood applications.
Reinforced is projected to be the largest grade segment of the PEI market during the forecast period.
Reinforced PEI is formulated to meet the various engineering demands. It can be categorized into two types, namely, glass reinforced and fiber reinforced. Glass reinforced PEI provides greater dimensional stability and improved electrical and mechanical properties while retaining excellent processibility. Fiber reinforced PEI is known for its mechanical strength and hence preferred in applications such as corrosion protection. The major functions of fiber reinforced PEI is to carry the load, provide strength and stiffness, and replace metallic materials in various applications.
PEI sheet is projected to be the largest form segment of the PEI market during the forecast period.
PEI sheet is made of amorphous PEI that is commonly used as high-performance plastic material. This sheet provides good thermal performance as well as high strength & stiffness. PEI sheet is flame retardant, resistant to acids, and can be operated in the presence of steam and hot water. PEI provides high heat resistance, high strength modulus, and good electrical & insulation properties. PEI sheet has low moisture absorption and excellent dimensional stability in a variety of environments. It is internally lubricated by carbon fiber for good friction and wear characteristics.
Injection molding is projected to be the largest segment of the PEI market during the forecast period.
Injection molding is a manufacturing process used for the fabrication of plastic parts. Different varieties of products, in terms of size, application, and complexity, are manufactured using the injection molding process. This process requires an injection molding machine, raw plastic material, and a mold. PEI is used in applications such as medical and electronics due to its strength and rigidity. This amber, high-performance polymer also provides properties such as dimensional stability and chemical resistance. PEI is ideal for environments that include hot air and water, as it is hydrolytically stable, can be resistant to heat for an extended period, and has excellent electrical properties. PEI processed through injection molding is used in applications such as medical devices, instrument trays, and electrical enclosures.
APAC is projected to be the largest market during the forecast period.
APAC is projected to be the largest polyetherimide (PEI) market during the forecast period. There is an increase in the consumption of PEI in various applications due to continued industrialization and growth in the transportation, electronics, and medical sectors of the region. In addition, growing innovation & development and the rising demand for specialty polymers in the industrial sector are driving the use of PEI. The increasing population and growing industrialization are also driving the polyetherimide (PEI) market in China, along with the growing export of different consumer electronics products by China to various European and North American countries.

This study involved four major activities to estimate the current market size of PEI. Exhaustive secondary research was carried out to collect information on the peer and parent markets. The next step was to validate these findings, assumptions, and sizing with industry experts across the value chain through primary research. Both top-down and bottom-up approaches were employed to estimate the overall market size. Thereafter, market breakdown and data triangulation were used to estimate the market size of segments and sub-segments.
Secondary Research
In the secondary research process, various sources such as annual reports, press releases, and investor presentations of companies; white papers; publications by recognized websites; and databases were referred to for identifying and collecting information. Secondary research was used to obtain key information about the supply chain of the industry, the total pool of key players, market classification, and segmentation according to the industry trends to the bottom-most level, regional markets, and key developments from both, the market- and technology-oriented perspectives.
Primary Research
