Based on type, Polylactic Acid (PLA) segment is expected to have the second largest share of the 3D printing plastics market in 2022 by value. Polylactic Acid (PLA) is a type of 3D printing plastic that is rapidly increasing in popularity due to its eco-friendliness. PLA is extracted from natural products like sugar cane and corn starch, making it biodegradable. It is available in both soft and hard forms; it can be used to make different types of products. Hard PLA is stronger and is used more to create a wide range of products. PLA is commonly used in desktop 3D printing as it is easy to use, very inexpensive, and creates parts that can be used for a wide variety of applications. It is also one of the most environmentally friendly filaments on the market today. PLA is a feasible material for 3D printing because it's easy to work with, made using renewable raw materials, available in a variety of colors, and can be used as either a resin or filament. However, it has a low heat resistance, and it can deteriorate when exposed to sunlight.
Based on form, Powder segment is expected to be fastest growing segment in 3D printing plastics market during forecasted period. The powder form of plastics is commonly used in 3D printing, particularly in the Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) process. Some of the plastic materials available in powder form for 3D printing include Polyamides (PA), Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPE), Polyaryletherketones (PAEK), Polyamide 12 (PA 12), and Polypropylene. These materials offer various properties such as toughness, high impact strength, thermal and conductive properties, resistance to chemicals and weather, and high elasticity. The growth powder form of the 3D printing plastics are driven by increasing demand for 3D printing technology in industries such as automotive, medical, aerospace, and defense, as well as by technological advancements and the ease of customized product development.
Based on application, The manufacturing segment is expected to have the second largest share of the 3D printing plastics market in 2022 by value. Various industries, including automotive, healthcare, and aerospace & defense, have already adopted 3D printing to mass produce components. Automotive components, mobile cases, wing mirrors, toys, and other products are created using 3D printing technology. End-use industries are shifting toward bulk manufacturing using 3D printing, which reduces manufacturing costs, decreases lead time, and produces complex structured objects. 3D printing technology allows us to produce personalized parts and products, catering to specific client requirements and preferences.
