Aramid fibers are synthetic fibers with exceptional heat-resistance and strength. Due to their high strength and heat resistant properties, aramid fibers are widely used in the aerospace & defense industry and safety equipment industry for making ballistic body armors, helmets, sporting goods, and other protective clothing. Aramid fiber were first developed and commercialized by DuPont in 1960s, under the brand name Nomex.
The factors that drive the global aramid fiber reinforcement materials market include growth in demand from the consumer goods & defense sector and exceptional properties of aramid fiber such as heat resistance (more than 500C) and strength (five times stronger than steel on an equal weight basis). However, the high production & investment costs and non-biodegradability of aramid fiber, are expected to hamper the market growth during the forecast period. The aramid fiber reinforcement materials market is highly consolidated with Teijin Limited and Du Pont having major market share, which hinders the entry of new market players. Moreover, growth opportunities exist in the market for the use of aramid fiber in safety applications in consumer goods & defense and ongoing R&D activities to bring innovation.
The para-aramid fiber segment accounted for the highest market share in 2015, owing to the high tenacity, high tensile modulus, and high heat resistance of para-aramid fibers. Increase in concern for health and safety of defense personnel & industrial employees, and demand from industries such as automotive, rubber reinforcement, telecommunication, and advanced material composites drive the market growth for para-aramid fibers. Meta-aramid fibers segment is anticipated to grow at the highest CAGR throughout the forecast period.
