The global A&D thermoplastic composites market is likely to offer significant opportunities over the next five years to reach an estimated value of US$ 636 million in 2023. Increasing commercial and regional aircraft deliveries, increasing demand for advanced composites in the structural applications of aircraft, increasing production rates of composites rich aircraft (B787 and A350XWB), increasing demand for thermoplastic composites to fabricate structural and interior parts, and superior benefits of thermoplastic composites including recyclability and reduction in parts count are the key factors that are proliferating the demand for thermoplastic composites in the aerospace & defense industry.
