Global Semiconductor Materials Market Growth (Status and Outlook) 2025-2031

According to this study, the global Semiconductor Materials market size will reach US$ 132660 million by 2031.

This report studies the semiconductor materials, including the wafer fabrication materials and packaging materials. The wafer fabrication materials include silicon wafers, semiconductor photomask, photoresists, photoresist auxiliary materials, wet chemicals, semiconductor gases, sputtering targets, and CMP polishing materials, etc. The packaging materials include IC substrates, lead frame, bonding wires, cutting materials, ceramic packaging materials, bonding materials and EMC (Epoxy Molding Compound), etc.

The semiconductor materials industry is experiencing rapid growth driven by surging demand from AI, 5G, and automotive electrification, with China emerging as a pivotal market. Currently, China's semiconductor materials market reached $11.93 billion in 2024, with a projected double-digit annual growth rate, fueled by third-generation materials like silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN), which now dominate power electronics and RF applications. However, challenges persist: advanced materials such as EUV photoresists and 12-inch wafers remain heavily import-dependent (over 60% reliance on imports for high-purity materials), and R&D gaps in ultra-high-purity gas purification and defect-free crystal growth persist.

Looking ahead, the industry is poised for transformative shifts. Material innovation will center on beyond-silicon solutions, including 2D materials (graphene, MoS₂) for nanoscale transistors and quantum materials (topological insulators) for low-power quantum computing . Green manufacturing will gain momentum, with hydrogen-based etching replacing perfluorocarbons (PFCs) and recyclable photoresist residues targeting 90% recovery rates by 2030. Supply chain resilience will drive regionalization, as governments prioritize domestic production—China aims for 70% self-sufficiency in critical materials by 2025 under its "Big Fund" initiatives . Concurrently, AI-accelerated material discovery and vertical integration (e.g., foundries partnering with material suppliers) will redefine competitiveness . In summary, the sector’s evolution hinges on balancing technological breakthroughs, sustainability, and geopolitical autonomy to sustain the semiconductor innovation cycle.
