Polyphenylene Sulfide Market Analysis:

The polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) market is witnessing a robust growth, driven by its extensive demand and applications across various industries like electronics, automotive, and industrial sectors. PPS is used by several of the major automakers, including Toyota, BMW, and others, in the manufacturing of electrical connectors, fuel systems, and engine parts. Since PPS is in such high demand for being lightweight, the aerospace sector helps to further stimulate the market. For instance, Collins Aerospace employs PPS for manufacturing interior fittings, and seat frames. Use of PPS reduces 20-50% aircraft weight. It also reduces manufacturing cycle time by 80%

According to industry reports, the PPS market is expected to grow rapidly in the next five years due to the rise coating applications and its value in the electronics sector because of its resilience to heat and chemicals. With a CAGR of 8.85%, it is anticipated to reach USD 3.05 billion by 2030.

Polyphenylene Sulfide Market Trends:

Applications in Electrical and Electronics Industry

The electric and electronics industry is one of the major drivers for the polyphenylene sulfide market. Polyphenylene sulfide sees a huge demand in this industry due to its high thermal resistance, excellent insulation properties, and dimensional stability. Electrical industry uses PPS for switches, connectors, sockets, and bobbins production. For instance, Toray provides PPS under its brand name Torelina specifically to electric and electronic sector for its superior dielectric properties. Torelina PPS is ideal for insulation components and high-performance connectors in electronic circuit. Torelina PPS film is the only bi-axially oriented film available in the world.

Another company, Mitsubishi Chemicals, offers wide range of thermoplastic resins, including PPS, which are made with thermoplastic molding materials carbon fiber pellets PYROFIL and pitch-based carbon fiber DIALED PPS. It has excellent antistatic protection and electromagnetic shielding properties that makes it ideal for miniature electronic components production. It is resistant to high temperature and has exceptional dimensional stability.

Increasing Demand in Automotive Industry

The market for polyphenylene sulfide is being driven by the automotive industry, which is strongly reliant on it. PPS's ability to tolerate high temperatures without losing its mechanical qualities is the cause of its dependence. PPS is therefore preferred by manufacturers for building under-the-hood components because of their exposure to high heat. For instance, Celanese has produced a new line of PPS called Fortron PPS, which is a high-performance thermoplastic with an excellent balance of properties. It is hard, stiff, and tough. It is used by automotive companies for manufacturing heater cores, coolant systems, and water pumps.

PPS’ properties like lightweight and ease of processing also makes it a favorable component of the automotive industry. Lightweighting is an essential part of vehicle development and designing. According to The Economic Times, globally automotive lightweight materials market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 9.4% from USD 116 billion in 2023 to USD 167 billion in 2027.

Latest Industry News:

• In 2023, Solvay, a leading chemical company, launched its new Ryton PPS series, which included Ryton Supreme HV and HF. These were specifically developed to make drivers’ lives easier with greater driver ranges and shorter charging times. Supreme HV provides best electric performance and electric thermal index for superior heat resistance with UL94 V0 flammability ratings, while Supreme HF offers high mechanical strength and excellent flowability for 0.3 mm thin-wall components.
• In 2024, Polyplastics Co., Ltd., a leading global supplier of engineering thermoplastics, has announced the launch of next generation polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) grade called DURAFIDE (R) PPS 1140HS6 that will have improved thermal shock resistance and could be easily recycled during post-consumer recycling (PCR) without any sorting.  DURAFIDE is a 40% glass filled grade that meets the requirements for metal insert molding, particularly busbars for electric vehicles.
