Description

The global SiC Polishing Consumables market size is expected to reach $ 558 million by 2032, rising at a market growth of 19.1% CAGR during the forecast period (2026-2032).

Silicon Carbide (SiC) is a wide band gap semiconductor that can operate at higher temperature, power level, and voltage. This enables improved energy efficiency in power devices, LED lighting, and telecommunications. Because of its unique properties, SiC is the material of choice for diverse applications such as Hybrid Electric vehicles, power electronic switches, and LED lighting technology.

The key players of SiC CMP slurry include Entegris, Fujimi Corporation, Saint-Gobain, and Shanghai Xinanna, etc. In 2024, the global top three players occupied for a share approximately 82.4% in terms of revenue.

The key players of SiC CMP pads include DuPont, Entegris, and Fujibo, etc. DuPont is domaing the global SiC CMP pads market, holds a share over 75%.

The market for silicon carbide (SiC) chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) consumables, including slurries and pads, is at a pivotal stage, reflecting the rapid growth of the SiC wafer industry itself. Currently, the market is highly concentrated, with a small number of key players dominating the supply chain. Entegris and Fujimi Corporation are the established leaders in SiC CMP slurries, leveraging their deep expertise in materials science to develop proprietary formulations that meet the stringent demands of SiC polishing. Similarly, DuPont and Fujibo hold a commanding position in the SiC CMP pads market. This limited number of suppliers, while ensuring high quality and performance, also presents a potential bottleneck for future capacity expansion. Most of the market activity today is focused on 6-inch SiC wafers, which have become the industry standard for power electronics and are critical for the automotive and energy sectors. However, there is a nascent but growing demand for 8-inch wafers, which promises economies of scale and is a key focus for leading SiC manufacturers like Wolfspeed and STMicroelectronics. The performance of these consumables directly impacts the final device yield and quality, making their development a critical path item for the entire SiC ecosystem.

Several powerful trends are acting as tailwinds for the SiC CMP consumables market. First and foremost is the accelerated adoption of SiC in electric vehicles (EVs). SiC power devices are crucial for EV inverters, on-board chargers, and DC-DC converters due to their superior efficiency, power density, and thermal conductivity compared to traditional silicon-based solutions. As EV production scales up globally, so does the demand for SiC wafers and, by extension, the consumables used to polish them. Second, the global push for renewable energy is a significant driver. SiC components are essential for solar inverters and wind turbine systems, where they help maximize energy conversion efficiency. The third factor is the transition from 6-inch to 8-inch wafers. This shift is driven by the semiconductor industry’s constant quest for lower costs per die. As major SiC manufacturers invest heavily in 8-inch fabrication lines, the demand for high-performance CMP slurries and pads specifically optimized for these larger wafers will surge. This transition will require significant R&D investment from consumables suppliers to address new technical challenges related to polishing uniformity and defectivity on larger substrates.

Despite the robust growth drivers, the SiC CMP consumables industry faces significant challenges. The primary obstacle is the extreme hardness and chemical inertness of SiC, which makes polishing an inherently difficult and slow process. This necessitates the use of abrasive slurries and durable pads that are both effective and cost-effective. Developing new formulations that can achieve higher material removal rates (MRR) while minimizing surface defects remains a major technical hurdle. A second major challenge is the high cost and limited supply of raw materials, particularly the specialized abrasives and chemicals used in slurries. The concentrated nature of the market could also be a point of concern, as it could lead to potential supply chain vulnerabilities if a key supplier faces production issues. Furthermore, the lack of a standardized polishing process across different SiC device manufacturers adds complexity. Each manufacturer has its own proprietary recipes, requiring consumables suppliers to develop a wide range of products or work closely with individual customers on tailored solutions. This fragmentation can slow down the overall maturation of the industry and hinder the development of universal, high-yield polishing processes.
