High Temperature Plastic market size, share & industry analysis, By Type (Fluoropolymers, Polyphenylene Sulfide, Polysulfone, Polyimides, Others), By Application (Transportation, Electronics & Electrical, Industrial, Medical, Others) and regional Forecast, 2024-2032

High temperature plastics (HTP) are specially formulated plastics that can withstand high temperatures. This plastic is used in application areas with high temperature requirements. They exhibit exceptional mechanical strength, stability and chemical resistance even at range of elevated temperature. They are sturdy, abrasion resistant, UV resistant, hard and wear resistant.

Increasing demand from the aerospace sector for materials that can withstand high temperature is likely to drive the market. HTP is also used as light-weight replacement for metal parts of heavy machineries. Additionally, the rising demand from the construction industry for light-weight material with high mechanical strength is likely to boost the market growth.

However, high temperature plastics are synthesized using polymers like polyketones, polyphenylene sulphides, and liquid crystals polymers. Prices of these polymers are volatile which substantially rise the cost of the end-product. This is expected to hinder the market growth.
