Aerospace plastics are lightweight polymers used for several aerospace applications. They are extremely light in weight and are high-performance plastics for thermal, acoustic, and chemical resistance in aircraft. Polyether ether ketone (PEEK), acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), poly carbonates (PC), and polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) are some of the commonly used aerospace plastics. These plastics are used on aircraft structural components, including wing ribs and spars, fuel tank covers, landing gear hubcaps, pylon fairings, and radomes. Aerospace plastics are also used for designing and manufacturing avionics sensor plates, electronic component mounting brackets, and ventilation impeller blades. They exhibit toughness, high-temperature tolerance, excellent transparency, and chemical and impact resistance, and stand up to vibration and abrasion.

Aerospace Plastics Market

Aerospace Plastics Market Trends:

The increasing demand for lightweight and more proficient aircraft across the globe is one of the key factors driving the market growth. Aerospace plastics are widely used as they are lighter and bear high strength, which assists in the proper distribution of weight and balance system. In line with this, key manufacturers are focusing on the reduction of the overall weight of the aircraft while maintaining or even improving its total load-carrying capacity, which, in turn, is favoring the market growth. Moreover, the widespread product adoption to manufacture several cabin components, including cabin operations, air ducts, floor panels, and overhead luggage bins, is acting as another growth-inducing factor. Apart from this, the introduction of materials providing thermal stability as planes operate at variable temperatures and require high thermal stability is providing an impetus to the market growth. Furthermore, the increasing application of aerospace plastics in retrofitting activities of old aircraft cabins and individual seats, as they are cost-effective solutions, is propelling the market growth. Additionally, the rising product demand due to the adoption of advanced air traffic control and high-speed data transmission systems, is positively influencing the market growth. Along with this, the increasing utilization of ABS owing to its various advantages, such as excellent mechanical strength, durability, cost-effectiveness, and ease of installation properties, is providing a considerable boost to the market growth. Other factors, including the introduction of in-flight entertainment, increasing air traffic, extensive research and development (R&D) activities, the strong presence of aircraft manufacturers, and the rising demand for business jets and helicopters, are anticipated to drive the market growth further.
