Global Polypropylene Film for Capacitors Supply, Demand and Key Producers, 2026-2032
Description
The global Polypropylene Film for Capacitors market size is expected to reach $ 2171 million by 2032, rising at a market growth of 7.8% CAGR during the forecast period (2026-2032).
Polypropylene film is a high-performance insulating material based on polypropylene resin, manufactured through melt extrusion, cooling, biaxial stretching, and heat treatment. Its uniform structure and controllable thickness provide excellent electrical insulation, low dielectric loss, and good thermal stability. It is considered a core dielectric material for capacitors in the electronics and electrical industry.
This film combines high mechanical strength, excellent toughness, abrasion resistance, and excellent density, maintaining stable performance under high-voltage, high-frequency, and long-term operating conditions. The production process typically involves three stages: thick film preparation, biaxial stretching in both the longitudinal and transverse directions, and slitting and winding to ensure the film possesses the desired physical and electrical properties.
Globally, the production of polypropylene film for capacitors will be 213,400 tons in 2024, with an average price of US$5,250 per ton.
Polypropylene film for capacitors is generally referred to as capacitor PP film. Its primary raw material is polypropylene (PP), and its price fluctuates with PP prices. Globally, capacitor PP film production is primarily distributed in China, Japan, Europe (Germany, France, Italy, etc.), the United States, and South Korea, with China holding the majority of the market share. Chinese PP film still lags behind leading international companies (such as Toray, which primarily targets the EV market) in terms of product performance and production technology. However, with breakthroughs in product development and technology in recent years, some Chinese companies, such as Hebei Haiwei Group, Zhejiang Great Southeast, and Quanzhou Jiadeli Electronic, have gained a significant market share in the ultra-thin PP film market.
The global polypropylene film market for capacitors is expected to maintain steady growth from 2025 to 2031, primarily driven by the rapid expansion of new energy vehicles (EVs), photovoltaics (PV), and wind power, as well as continued support from national industrial policies.
Different thicknesses of capacitor PP film have varying end-use applications. For example, in the new energy vehicle (NEV) market (e.g., electric drive, OBC), capacitor PP film thickness and performance differ significantly from conventional applications: ultra-thin (thickness ≤ 3μm) and high-temperature resistance. In the photovoltaic and wind power markets, PP film thickness is generally ≤ 5μm. According to P2C (supplier-to-customer) quotes, 3μm is 100% more expensive than 5μm. In 2024, 3-8μm capacitor PP film accounted for 60% of the market share. However, with the rapid development of the NEV industry, PP film below 3μm is expected to reach a 26% share by 2031, with a CAGR of 10.92%.
Capacitor PP film's downstream applications are primarily film capacitors, while its end-use applications are primarily automotive, PV & wind power, home appliances, consumer electronics, and industrial equipment. In 2024, the automotive market accounted for nearly 35% of the market share. In the future, with the rapid development of global electrification and the accelerated penetration of NEVs, the automotive market share is expected to reach 37% by 2031.
