[197 Pages Report] The polyimide films market is estimated to be USD 1.4 billion in 2018 and is projected to reach USD 2.6 billion by 2023, at a CAGR of 12.5% from 2018 to 2023. Surging demand for polyimide films in developing nations and preference for transparent polyimide films are some of the key opportunities for the polyimide films industry.

Polyimide Films Market

Market Dynamics

Driver

Increased demand from the electronics industry

Factors such as rapid industrialization, economic development, rising disposable income, and growing digitalization have resulted in an increase in electronic consumerism. Electronics is the largest and fastest-growing end-use industry segment of the polyimide films market. The segment is projected to grow at a CAGR of 12.6% and 14.6%, in terms of volume and value respectively, from 2018 to 2023.

The electronics industry is witnessing significant growth mainly due to the technical innovations in this sector. 3D TVs, smart TVs, smartphones, and tablets are some of the products witnessing high growth in this sector.

Consumers prefer electronic products that are small, light, and thin. Hence, there is a high demand for materials that are lightweight, durable, and reliable. Thermal stability along with superior mechanical and electrical properties has resulted in a strong demand for polyimide films in the electronics industry. For instance, in a laptop, the cable that connects the main logic board to the display (which must flex every time the laptop is opened or closed) is often a polyimide base with a copper conductor. The demand for polyimide films in this industry is mainly attributed to their high-temperature properties, low dielectric constants, inertness to solvents, and long-term stability.

Restraint

High cost of polyimide film

Polyimide films possess unique features in comparison to other polymer films. They are durable, can withstand very high temperatures, and can be reused. However, polyimide films are costly. For instance, the thicker the polyimide film, the higher is the cost of the product. The manufacturing of polyimide films also requires a high level of technological know-how and special machines.

During the manufacturing process of polyimide films, the chemical imidization excludes a counter depolymerization reaction, which allows the polyimides to obtain higher and more stable mechanical properties. However, due to the use of additional reagents, the final product is also more expensive.

Opportunity

Preference for transparent polyimide films

Conventional polymer films such as PET possess excellent optical transparency. However, these films face challenges in advanced optoelectronic engineering mainly due to their limited service temperature. Hence, currently, transparent polyimide films are preferred over conventional polymers. The high thermal & chemical resistance, high mechanical properties, and excellent dielectric features of transparent polyimide films have increased their demand across end-use industries for various applications, such as flexible displays, flexible printing circuit boards, and flexible solar cells.

The flexible printed circuits application segment is expected to witness the highest CAGR due to increasing demand from the electronics industry

The use of polyimide films in flexible printed circuits helps in providing additional thickness, which is required by the end-use industries such as electronics and automotive. Based on application, the flexible printed circuits segment is projected to grow at the highest CAGR mainly due to the growing demand in mobile devices, computers, and automobile & military electronics.

Electronics is projected to be the fastest-growing end-use industry segment of the polyimide films market

Electronics, automotive, aerospace, and labeling are some of the key end-use industry segments of the polyimide films market. Electronics is estimated to be the largest end-use industry segment of the market in 2018. It is also the fastest-growing segment and is projected to dominate the market in the near future. Automotive is estimated to be the second-largest segment, whereas the aerospace segment is projected to grow at the second-highest CAGR during the forecast period.

Polyimide Films Market

Asia Pacific is expected to lead the market during the forecast period

The Asia Pacific region is estimated to be the largest market for polyimide films in 2018. China, India, Japan, and South Korea are the major countries in this regional polyimide films market. Innovation, price deflation, and rising household incomes, especially in emerging Asian markets, have resulted in the high demand for consumer electronics products, thereby contributing to the growth of the polyimide films market in the region.
