The Sic wafer polishing market is projected to grow from USD 0.4 billion in 2023 to USD 2.2 billion by 2028, at a CAGR of 37.5% from 2023 to 2028. Considering these factors, the increasing demand for SiC wafers in the power electronics, automotive, aerospace, and telecommunications sectors is driving the market expansion. SiC wafers offer exceptional properties like high thermal conductivity and wide bandgap, making them essential for advanced devices that require higher efficiency and performance. Additionally, the growing adoption of SiC-based devices in renewable energy systems and electric vehicles is fueling the demand for high-quality polished wafers.

“By product type, the diamond slurry sic wafer polishing centrifuges segment is estimated to be the fastest-growing segment of the Sic wafer polishing market from 2023 to 2028.”

Based on the product type, the Sic wafer polishing market made of diamond slurry sic wafer polishing centrifuge is regarded as one of the greatest product types. The inherent hardness and sharpness of diamond particles make them highly effective in tackling the challenges presented by SiC wafers, resulting in precise material removal and exceptional surface smoothness. As demand for SiC-based power electronics, optoelectronics, and high-frequency devices continues to surge, manufacturers seek advanced and reliable polishing solutions. Diamond slurry products meet these requirements, offering excellent control over material removal rates and superior planarization, leading to enhanced device performance and yield.

“By process, Chemical mechanical polishing process estimated to be the fastest-growing segment of Sic wafer polishing market from 2023 to 2028.”

Based on application, the chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) segment is expected to be the most significant in the sic wafer polishing market during the forecast period due to Its unique capacity to give a highly controlled and exact polishing procedure. CMP combines chemical reactions and mechanical abrasion to provide superior planarization and surface smoothness on SiC wafers, both of which are required for high-performance semiconductor devices. Its success is also due to its compatibility with diverse SiC substrate types and its ability to handle larger wafer sizes, answering the semiconductor industry's aspirations for advanced applications. Furthermore, the efficacy of CMP in eliminating flaws and impurities from SiC wafers makes it a preferred method for producing reliable and high-quality devices.

“The Sic wafer polishing market in Asia Pacific region is projected to witness the highest CAGR during the forecast period.”

The Asia Pacific region is projected to register the highest CAGR in the Sic wafer polishing market from 2023 to 2028. Asia Pacific is one of the key markets of sic wafer polishing considering these factors, as the region is a major hub for the electronics and semiconductor industries, with countries like China, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan playing significant roles in global semiconductor production. The growing demand for SiC-based devices, such as power electronics, RF components, and LEDs, is driving the need for high-quality polished SiC wafers, fostering the expansion of the polishing market.
