Polyphenylene Sulfide Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Type (Linear PPS, Cured PPS, Branched PPS), By End-use Industry (Automotive, Electrical & Electronics, Industrial, Aerospace, Others), and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032
Report Format: PDF | Published Date: Ongoing | Report ID: FBI105274 | Status : UpcomingThe global polyphenylene sulfide market is projected to grow significantly due to rising demand for lightweight vehicles during the forecast period. Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) is a partial-crystalline polymer composed of recurring rings of p-substituted benzene and sulfur. Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) is a high-performance & ideal material with excellent mechanical properties such as tightness, creep resistance, and endurance. With its barrier properties, heat resistance, high durability, and electronic conductivity, it can retain structural accuracy in severe environments. Along with its low viscosity, it can be formed into desired shapes. PPS is also acceptable for electrical applications and excessive operating temperatures as it is a flame retardant.
The growing demand for reduction of weight in automobiles in order to maximize efficiency and cut pollution has resulted in the need to substitute heavy metal parts with lighter polymers. This has boosted PPS demand in high-temperature areas owing to its excellent performance and mechanical characteristics. Increased use of polyphenylene sulfide in engine parts, routers, transmission components, piston pins, and cooling system is driving the market growth. Polyphenylene sulphide is completely recyclable, improves fuel economy, and lowers emissions. All of these advantages are driving the product demand in a variety of end-use industries. However, the existence of substitutes such as PEEK and PEI, as well as varying raw material costs represents key challenge for market growth.
