COVID-19 Impact Analysis on Glass Fiber & Specialty Synthetic Fiber Market
The rapid spread of coronavirus has had a major impact on global markets as major economies of the world are completely in lockdown due to this pandemic. Because of this major lockdown, suddenly all the consumer market has started to show zero interest in purchasing any goods and exhibited changing consumer behaviour. One of the major difficulties the market is facing is the shutdown of local and state-wise transportation, especially of non-essential goods. A global crisis for all sectors including shipping, which was hit by slowing demand in goods’ production and exports had negatively affected the market for glass & synthetic fiber Market.
Glass Fiber & Specialty Synthetic Fiber Market Segmentation Analysis
Based on the fiber type, the Global Glass Fiber & Specialty Synthetic Fiber Market has been classified as glass, carbon and others.
The glass segment is accounted for the highest share during the forecasting period
Glass fibers are expected to dominate the overall market in terms of volume and value during the next five years. The glass fibers are high in demand as they are low cost and have superior physical & mechanical properties such as strength, durability, flexibility, stability, and lightweight. The normal E-glass fibers are used mostly in wind energy, pipes & tanks, electrical & electronics, and construction & infrastructure industries. High strength glass is such as R, S, S-2, advances, among others, are used in aerospace & defence, automotive & transportation, and wind energy industries.
Based on the application, the global Glass Fiber & Specialty Synthetic fiber market has been classified as- composite and non-composite
A composite application is accounted for the highest share during the forecasting period
The composite application would lead to the market between 2019 and 2024. When these fibers are combined with a matrix, the resulting material is termed a composite. The use of fibers in composites exhibit superior performance properties when compared to traditional metals. These properties include excellent micro-cracking resistance, good tensile strength, electrical conductivity, high strength-to-weight ratio, and fatigue resistance. There is a staggering demand for glass, carbon, aramid, and UHMWPE fibers based composites in aerospace & defence, automotive & transportation, wind energy, and glass & pipes industries, thus augmenting the segment growth.
