Description

High Performance Composites

Growth in the high performance composites market will total 5.3 percent annually through 2020 in value terms. Gains will be propelled by demand from the automotive and wind energy segments. The aerospace market, which drove much of the industry’s growth over the last decade, will see a significant slowdown.

This report segments the high performance composites fiber, markets, and resin. Data is provided in million pounds and million dollars.

High performance composites fiber types include:
Carbon
S-Glass
Aramid
Other

Of these fibers, carbon fiber will remain the largest product type in the high performance composites market. It will also be the fastest growing fiber through 2020, driven by growing demand from automotive and industrial as well as energy markets for its light weight and strength.

Major markets for high performance composites include:
Aerospace
Automotive & Industrial
Consumer
Energy
Defense & Safety

Aerospace was the leading outlet in 2015. Automotive and industrial markets will show the most rapid growth in demand through 2020, driven by demand for pressure vessels and light-weighting for improved fuel efficiency in automobiles.

The US high performance composites industry ranges from smaller, privately held firms to divisions of large, multinational conglomerates. The industry has seen a number of notable acquisitions and divestitures in recent years. Leading suppliers include Cytec, GKN Aerospace, Hexcel, Mitsubishi Rayon, Royal Ten Cate, SGL Carbon, Solvay, Spirit Aerosystems, Teijin, and Toray.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
