Market Segmentation:
Type and End-Use are the major market segments listed in the MRFR study.
Metal alloy, composites and polymers are the top segments highlighted in the report, depending on type of Lightweight Materials. Composites are most widely utilized as the replacement for aluminum, wood, and steel on account of their higher strength to weight ratio. Rising fuel prices have triggered the need for fuel-efficient vehicles. key players are conducting extensive R&D activities to develop low-cost composite grades with similar mechanical properties as that of the high-cost variants. This
End-users in the global industry include automotive, construction, aerospace, electronic and electrical industry, energy, and marine. Lightweight Materials are mostly deployed in the automotive sector to boost the vehicle’s fuel efficiency and speed by bringing down the total weight. These materials are the ideal alternative to heavy materials that were earlier used for building outer frames of the vehicles due to benefits such as better handling, improved strength, lower material consumption, and reduced corrosion rate. Carbon fiber is the most sought-after lightweight material used while manufacturing of automobiles worldwide, as it significantly cuts down the overall weight while not compromising on the strength of the vehicle.
