Global Polyether
Ether Ketone (PEEK) Market is expected to reach USD 765.7 million by
2020; according to a new study by Grand View Research, Inc. Shift towards
reducing overall weight of automobiles by substituting metals with high
performance plastics is expected to drive the global PEEK market over the
forecast period. Stringent regulations particularly in the U.S. and Europe to minimize
fuel consumption by improving fuel efficiency have prompted PEEK adoption
across the automotive industry. Superior performance features have also
contributed towards its increasing penetration across medical, food,
semiconductors, aerospace and industrial sectors. High price of PEEK compared
to other plastics is expected to remain a key challenge for market
participants.
Glass filled emerged as the leading PEEK product and
accounted for 47.6% of total market volume in 2013. Glass filled PEEK is widely
used across electrical & electronics and industrial applications. Growth of
electrical & electronics industry in Asia Pacific is expected to fuel this
segment over the forecast period. Carbon filled PEEK is expected to witness the
highest growth of 8.8% from 2014 to 2020 on account of its increasing
application base across clinical and aerospace industries.
