Increasing Demand from Aerospace Industry Drives Carbon Fiber Market
The aerospace sector extensively uses carbon fiber composites in aircraft manufacturing. The aerospace industry has witnessed a shift towards greater utilization of composite materials, with carbon fiber being a prominent choice. Carbon fiber composites are employed in various aircraft components, including wings, fuselages, empennages, and interior parts. In addition, the aerospace industry has been focusing on fuel efficiency and reducing carbon emissions. The lightweight nature of carbon fiber materials helps reduce fuel consumption, resulting in lower carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. Carbon fiber composites enable the design of more aerodynamic aircraft, further improving fuel efficiency and reducing environmental impact. The increasing integration of carbon fiber composites in aircraft structure by the desire to maximize strength while minimizing weight and improve fuel economy, which ultimately propels the carbon fiber market growth.
Carbon Fiber Market: Segmental Overview
Based on raw material, the carbon fiber market is bifurcated into polyacrylonitrile-based and pitch-based. The polyacrylonitrile-based segment held the largest market share in 2022. Polyacrylonitrile-based carbon fiber exhibits excellent mechanical properties, such as high tensile strength, stiffness, and fatigue resistance. These properties make them highly desirable for applications where strength and lightweight characteristics are crucial such as aerospace, automotive, and sports equipment. The development of advanced manufacturing technologies has contributed to the growth of polyacrylonitrile-based carbon fiber. Growing technological advancement and rising demand from end-use industries, led to the dominance of the polyacrylonitrile-based segment in 2022.
Based on application, the carbon fiber market is segmented into composite materials, microelectrodes, and others. The composite materials segment is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Carbon fiber is known for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio. When incorporated into composite materials, such as carbon-fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP), it significantly enhances the strength and stiffness of the composite while keeping it lightweight. This characteristic is particularly advantageous in industries like aerospace, automotive, and sporting goods, where reducing weight while maintaining structural integrity is crucial for improved performance and fuel efficiency. The growing demand from these industries is expected to fuel the carbon fiber market growth for the composite materials segment.
Based on end use industry, the carbon fiber market is segmented into automotive, aerospace & defense, building & construction, sporting goods, wind energy, textiles, marine, and others. The wind energy segment is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Wind turbine blades need to be lightweight yet strong to maximize energy production and withstand various environmental conditions. Carbon fiber composites offer excellent strength-to-weight ratios, making them ideal for constructing large, lightweight turbine blades. In addition, wind turbine blades are subjected to cyclic loading and fatigue stress due to constant exposure to wind gusts and varying wind speeds. Carbon fiber composites exhibit excellent fatigue resistance, ensuring the longevity and reliability of wind turbine blades. The use of carbon fiber in blade construction reduces the risk of fatigue-induced failure and maintenance requirements, making it a preferred material in the wind energy sector.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Carbon Fiber Market
Before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the demand for carbon fiber was mainly driven by the automotive, aerospace, wind energy, building & construction, sporting goods, and marine industries. In addition, the shortage of manpower resulted in the deceleration of carbon fiber production and distribution operations. Disruptions in the global supply chain and the shutdown of tire production facilities hampered the demand for carbon fiber. Lockdowns imposed by different countries in 2020 hindered the ability of industries to maintain inventory levels. Several sectors that heavily rely on carbon fiber, such as aerospace and automotive, experienced a significant decline in demand during the pandemic. The aviation industry faced reduced air travel, leading to decreased aircraft production and lower demand for carbon fiber materials. The automotive sector also witnessed a slump in sales, impacting the demand for carbon fiber components.
In 2021, the economies started reviving their operations, and various industries resumed business activities. As a result, several industries, including the end use industries of carbon fiber, witnessed a recovery in their operations. The pandemic has heightened global awareness of the need for sustainability and resilience. Industries are increasingly adopting sustainable practices and materials, including carbon fiber composites, to reduce carbon emission, and improve energy efficiency. As a result, the demand for carbon fiber in sectors like renewable energy, electric vehicles, and green construction has remained relatively resilient and is contributing to the carbon fiber market’s recovery.
