复合材料製造技术趋势对原料的影响

对减肥的日益关注确保了未来的成长潜力

复合材料由两种或多种不同材料製成，由基体（聚合物）和增强材料（纤维）组成。复合材料几乎应用于每个行业，其需求正在迅速增长。这是由于对高性能和高能源效率最终产品的需求不断增长。

各种开式模具和封闭式模具製造技术被用来製造此类产品。包括手工积层、喷射成型、树脂灌注、模塑成型、射出成型、缠绕成型、拉挤成型、预浸料等。研究的目的是评估每个行业使用的製造技术的现状，并分析技术进步如何创造成长机会。该行业看到复合材料在大容量市场中的普及不断提高，复合材料行业可以为原材料製造商、复合材料製造商、零件製造商和数位解决方案供应商提供机会。

航太部门是最早采用纤维增强复合材料的领域之一，其次是汽车、船舶、能源和建筑零件。这些部门合计占复合材料产业收益的 70% 以上。随着OEM转向或扩展到复合材料替代品，这种材料的高强度重量比继续改变这些领域的产品。

适当的製造技术会根据零件的尺寸和用途而变化。这些是根据最终产品所需的特性来选择的。一些特定行业的趋势正在推动对某些复合材料产品的需求，并促进製造技术的有效利用。例如，汽车产业对具有成本效益的复合材料零件的需求不断增长，正在推动压缩和射出成型的使用。此外，随着氢经济的发展势头，缠绕成型等方法预计将获得关注。

Increasing Focus on Lightweighting Ensures Future Growth Potential

Composite materials are made from two of more heterogenous materials comprising of the matrix (polymer) and reinforcement (fiber). Composite materials are virtually used in every industry and are witnessing a rapid growth in its demand. This is due to the increasing demand to make end products high-performance and energy efficient.

A variety of open mold and closed mold fabrication techniques are used to manufacture such products. These include hand layup, spray-up, resin infusion, compression molding, injection molding, filament winding, pultrusion and prepreg, among others. The study aims to estimate the current state of fabrication technologies used across sectors and analyze how technological advancements can create growth opportunities. As the industry witnesses a growing penetration of composites in higher volume markets, the composites industry can offer opportunities for raw material manufacturers, composite manufacturers, component manufacturers as well as digital solution providers.

One of the first sectors to adopt fiber-reinforced composite was the aerospace sector, and it was subsequently adopted by the automotive, marine, energy, and construction sectors, among others. Cumulatively, these sectors account for over 70% revenue in the composites industry. The material's high strength-to-weight ratio continues to transform the products in these sectors as OEMs switch or expand to composite alternatives.

Different fabrication techniques are suitable for different part sizes and applications. These are selected based on the desired characteristics of the end-product. Several industry-specific trends are driving the demand for specific composite products, enabling a robust use of manufacturing techniques. For instance, the increasing demand for cost-effective composite parts in the automotive industry boosts the use of compression and injection molding. Further, as the hydrogen economy gains momentum, methods such as filament winding are expected to gain traction.
