    Market Dynamics

    Introduction

    Carbon fibers are crystalline filaments of carbon atoms that are thin and strong. These fibers have a diameter of 5 to 10 micrometres and can be used as a strengthening material, particularly in resins and ceramics. Carbon fibers are mostly made of polyacrylonitrile (PAN), but they can also be made of rayon or petroleum pitch.

    These fibers offer various advantages, such as high stiffness, excellent strength-to-weight ratio, outstanding tensile strength, exceptional chemical resistance, remarkable temperature tolerance, and low thermal expansion.

    Market Drivers

    Factors such as increasing demand for high-performance and lightweight composite materials and the growing necessity for enhanced performance in various end-use industries are some of the key factors likely to drive the growth of the market during the forecast period.
