Liquid Crystalline Polymers Market Size, Share, Growth and Global Industry Analysis By Type & Application, Regional Insights and Forecast to 2024-2032
Growth Factors of Liquid Crystalline Polymers Market
The liquid crystalline polymers market size was valued at USD 1.34 billion in 2022, and the market is now projected to grow from USD 1.56 billion in 2023 to USD 2.69 billion by 2031, exhibiting a CAGR of 8.0% during the forecast period of 2022-2029.
The COVID-19 led to disturbances in production activities and shift in demand and supply of electrical and electronic parts which affected LCP production and demands. However, the demands of high-speed network, electronics, and medical equipment demand helped to counter balance this impact. The measures taken by government as part of economic restructuring are believed to help restore health to the markets within several years.
Higher infrastructure development, advancement in technology and higher per capita income are fueling growth in the electronics industry worldwide consequently increasing demand of liquid crystalline polymers (LCPs). Some of the properties of LCPs, including high strength, excellent damping characteristics, and low moisture absorption, prove suitable for electronic components. Therefore, the increasing miniaturization of terminals and compact design of portable smart devices, such as high-frequency network switches, IC sockets, and electrical connectors, drive the development of liquid crystalline polymers market.
During 2021 World Mobile Communications Conference, popular mobile phone manufacturers such as Samsung, Xiaomi, OPPO and vivo supported 5G millimeter-wave development. liquid crystalline polymers are preferable for millimeter-wave high-frequency substrate better than polyimide (PI) and modified polyimide (MPI) frequencies in GHz above 15. Because 5G technology is constantly improving, the superior performance of liquid crystalline polymers makes it more suitable for smartphone antenna membranes, thereby increasing its popularity in the communication sector.
