    Market Insights

    Polyetherimide (PEI) market is likely to witness an impressive CAGR of 6.8% during the forecast period. The prime factor that is contributing to the demand for polyetherimide (PEI) is mainly the increasing usage of high-performance polymer in various heat resistant applications, such as transportation and industrial. Further, owing to its lesser manufacturing steps and joints, PEI, along with thermally conductive fillers, remains a cost-effective solution to metals. It is extensively used as an alternative to metals in compact electronic gadgets, as it enhances the performance of compact electronics by dissipating heat. Besides the electronics industry, PEI is employed in various end-use industries, such as transportation, medical, consumer good, and industrial. All these factors are expected to underpin the growth of the market during the forecast period.
