汽车复合材料市场 - 2024年至2029年预测Automotive Composites Market - Forecasts from 2024 to 2029 |
2022年汽车复合材料市值为73.17亿美元,复合年增长率为11.04%,到2029年市场规模将达到152.31亿美元。
汽车复合材料是轻质、緻密的材料,主要用于卡车和汽车的引擎盖和内装。复合材料是减轻车辆重量的首选材料,因此被用于许多汽车内部和外部应用。由于其优异的尺寸稳定性,复合材料近年来在汽车领域越来越普及。复合材料是理想的材料,因为它们具有型态保持性、热膨胀係数低、在干燥和潮湿条件下具有耐腐蚀性能、製造方便性以及重量轻以减少车辆总质量。
需要更轻的汽车零件以提高燃油效率并减少排放气体
与钢、铁、铝等传统结构金属材料相比,复合材料玻璃纤维可减重15-20%,碳纤维复合材料可减重25-40%。此外,欧盟成员国已经制定了许多官民合作关係计划,以促进复合材料在汽车领域的使用。复合材料和汽车轻量材料创新丛集的创建,以及汽车和化学工业之间的合作,透过对汽车碳纤维复合材料市场的供应链分析来支持投资,都是此类努力的例子。
汽车复合材料市场受到电动车需求不断增长的推动。
几位专家表示,透过车辆减重措施减轻每公斤重量,电动车的价格更高。虽然典型的内燃机汽车每减轻一公斤重量只能节省几美元,但电动车每公斤可以节省约 7 至 8 美元。在传统的驾驶循环中,典型的汽车在加速时会浪费大量能量,但它也可以透过煞车能量再生来回收大量动能。透过使车身更轻,电池可以做得更小,同时保持电动车的续航里程。减轻车身和电池组的重量可以缩小煞车系统和传动系统等其他系统的尺寸,从而达到减轻车辆整体重量的复合效果。如果传动系统功率和扭矩处于同一水平,减轻重量会减少污染物并提高内燃机车辆的性能。
玻璃纤维复合材料在汽车工业的使用增加
近年来,为了提高燃油效率和减少排放气体,对轻量材料的需求显着增加。玻璃纤维复合材料因其比碳纤维或天然纤维复合材料便宜而广泛应用于汽车产业。此外,天然纤维复合材料也用于製造引擎盖、储存槽和仪表板等车身部件,从而减少钢材等其他金属的使用。
外部市场预计将以显着的复合年增长率成长。
汽车复合材料的汽车外部应用包括头灯、隔热等。许多汽车製造商同样关注车身复合材料。例如,最近的研究表明,增强热塑性塑胶可能是下一个大浪潮。 BMW i3 是世界上第一款使用热塑性复合材料外观的量产车。作为玻璃纤维的替代品作为减轻重量的解决方案,汽车行业越来越多地使用天然复合材料来製造内饰件。
预计亚太地区在市场占有率方面处于领先地位。
亚太地区是最大且成长最快的地区,因为该地区,特别是中国、印度和泰国,拥有最多的汽车数量。此外,印度、印尼、泰国和中国预计将成为道路上车辆数量最多的国家,也是最大的四轮汽车市场,从而刺激市场扩张。据印度品牌资产基金会(IBEF)称,到2023年7月将总合生产2.08小客车*、三轮车、两轮车和四轮车,预计这一趋势将在未来十年持续下去。此外,世界领先的製造商正在转向亚洲市场以增加利润。一些世界上最大的汽车製造商正在印度开发製造设施,以满足不断增长的需求并促进该国的销售。
主要市场推出
The automotive composites market is evaluated at US$7.317 billion for the year 2022 growing at a CAGR of 11.04% reaching the market size of US$15.231 billion by the year 2029.
Automotive composites are light and compact materials mainly employed under the hood and in the interiors of trucks, cars, and other vehicles. Composites are employed for numerous vehicle interior and exterior applications because they are favoured materials for weight reduction in autos. Because of their outstanding dimensional stability, composite materials have become more prevalent in the automotive sector in recent years. Composites are desirable materials because of their shape retention, low coefficient of thermal expansion, corrosion resistance for performance in dry and wet situations, the convenience of manufacturing, & low weight to reduce overall vehicle mass.
The requirement for lightweight components in automobile parts to improve fuel efficiency and lower emissions
Compared to traditional structural metallic materials such as steel, iron, and aluminium, composites offer weight reduction benefits of 15-20% for glass fibre and 25-40% for carbon fibre composites. Moreover, many public-private partnership programs in EU member states have already been developed to boost the use of composites in the automotive sector. The creation of composites and automotive lightweight materials innovation clusters, as well as collaborations with the automotive and chemical industries to support the investment through supply chain analysis of the automotive carbon fibre composites market, are examples of such initiatives.
The market for automotive composites is being driven by an increase in demand for electric vehicles.
Electric vehicles, according to several experts, will allow for higher prices per kilo of weight saved in vehicle weight reduction measures. Typical IC engine automobiles can only afford to spend a couple of dollars for each kilogram of weight saved, whereas electric vehicles can save 7-8 dollars per kilogram. In conventional driving cycles, general cars waste more energy while accelerating, but they can also recover more kinetic energy through brake energy recovery. A lighter car body enables battery downsizing while preserving range in electric vehicles. Reducing the weight of the vehicle body and battery pack has a compounding effect on overall vehicle weight reduction by allowing other systems like the brake system and driving the train to be downsized. At the same drivetrain power and torque levels, the decreased weight cuts pollutants and enhances performance in ICE vehicles.
Rising use of glass fibre composites in the automotive industry
In recent years, there has been a significant growth in the need for lightweight materials to improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions. Glass fibre composites are widely employed in the automotive industry since they are less expensive than carbon and natural fibre composites. Furthermore, natural fibre composites are used to make vehicle body sections like engine hoods, storage tanks, and dashboards, reducing the use of other metals like steel.
The exterior segment is expected to grow at a significant CAGR.
Exterior automobile applications for automotive composites include headlamps, heat shielding components, and more. Many automakers are likewise emphasizing composites in their vehicle bodywork. For example, recent research indicates that reinforced thermoplastics could become the next big wave. The BMW i3 is the world's first mass-produced automobile with a thermoplastic composite exterior element. As an alternative to glass fibre as a light-weighting solution, the automobile industry is increasingly adopting natural composites in the interior portions of vehicles.
Asia Pacific is expected to take the lead in terms of market share.
Due to the highest number of automobiles present in this region, particularly in China, India, and Thailand, Asia Pacific is the largest and fastest-growing region. Furthermore, India, Indonesia, Thailand, and China are predicted to have the greatest number of cars on the road, as well as the largest markets for four-wheelers, fueling the market's expansion. As per the India Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF), in July 2023, 2.08 units of passenger vehicles*, three-wheelers, two-wheelers, and quadricycles were produced in total, a trend that is expected to continue in the future decade. Furthermore, top manufacturers worldwide are looking to the Asian market to boost their profits. Some of the world's largest automakers are developing manufacturing facilities in India to meet rising demand, boosting the country's automotive composites sales.
