Global Gas Diffusion Layer (GDL) Market 2024 by Manufacturers, Regions, Type and Application, Forecast to 2030

According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Gas Diffusion Layer (GDL) market size was valued at USD 513.4 million in 2023 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 650.8 million by 2030 with a CAGR of 3.4% during review period.

The Gas Diffusion Layer (GDL) , is the main part of a fuel cell. It is usually made of carbon fiber woven paper or carbon fiber non-woven paper. It is generally believed that the gas diffusion layer can be divided into a substrate layer (support layer) and a microporous layer. The ideal gas diffusion layer electrode structure, on the one hand, must have good gas permeability, in order to meet the electrode maximum power work gas reactant supply, on the other hand, must have good porous system, and it could form enough three phase interfaces to increase the Gas diffusion electrode's ability to convert chemical energy into electrical energy.

Global Gas Diffusion Layer key players include Toray, SGL, Freudenberg, etc. Global top three manufacturers hold a share over 55%.

North America is the largest market, with a share about 27%, followed by Europe and Japan, both have a share over 40 percent.

In terms of product, Carbon paper type is the largest segment, with a share over 80%. And in terms of application, the largest application is Oxyhydrogen fuel cell, followed by Hydrocarbon fuel cell, etc.
