Carbon and Graphite Felt Market Share, Size, Trends, Industry Analysis Report, By Raw Material Type (PAN, Pitch and Rayon); By Product Type; By Type; By Application; By Region; Segment Forecast, 2024 - 2032
The global carbon and graphite felt market size is expected to reach USD 1092.29 million by 2032, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report “Carbon and Graphite Felt Market Share, Size, Trends, Industry Analysis Report, By Raw Material Type (PAN, Pitch and Rayon); By Product Type; By Type; By Application; By Region; Segment Forecast, 2024 - 2032” gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.
The demand for carbon and graphite felt is rising globally because of its use in vital industrial applications such as vacuum distillation, gas generation, and liquid heating. Carbon and graphite felt are created by pressing, tangling, and condensing fibers together. With a variety of uses and methods, carbon and graphite felt are widely employed as electrodes and cathodes. They are also used as insulation for furnaces. Efficiency is one of the most crucial elements in the movement of energy between places or between processes. A product or piece of equipment can be shielded from the loss or impact of elements like heat or electricity by using insulation.
The industry experienced adverse effects from the COVID-19 pandemic, with the carbon and graphite felt market seeing reductions in both production and demand from key end-user industries like iron and steel, batteries, electronics, and semiconductors. Nevertheless, post-pandemic, a resurgence in demand from the batteries and semiconductor sectors has helped rejuvenate the market.
The adoption of renewable sources like solar and wind power has significantly increased electricity production in many developed nations. This growth offers benefits such as a continuous and ample energy supply, as well as environmental advantages like reduced greenhouse gas emissions. The rising demand for solar and wind energy is driving the global need for carbon and graphite felt in various applications, including flow batteries.
