Aerospace Composites Market Segmentation:

Fiber Segment Analysis

The global aerospace composites market is also segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by fiber into carbon, ceramic, and glass. Out of these segments, the carbon fiber segment is projected to witness the highest market growth, as carbon fiber is the most widely used material for aircraft composites. Moreover, aerospace applications frequently employ carbon fiber composites owing to their high durability and low weight. They are often utilized in propulsion technology, interiors, and aircraft construction, including wings and fuselages. However, compared to carbon and glass fibers,  advanced ceramics are employed in aircraft applications less frequently. They are utilized in applications such as heat shields and engine components due to their excellent temperature resistance. Glass fiber composites are often employed in the aerospace industry, especially in applications that need strong impact resistance and beneficial fatigue qualities. They are often utilized in propulsion systems, interiors, and aircraft construction, including wings and fuselages. According to the stated data, it is estimated that over 155,000 tons of carbon fiber are produced worldwide every year.

Aircraft Type Segment Analysis

The global aerospace composites market is segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by aircraft type into commercial aircraft, business and general aviation, civil helicopter, and military aircraft. Out of these, commercial aircraft are anticipated to hold the largest market size by the end of 2035 on the back of major advancements in the civilian aerospace segment, and increased use of composites in the construction of midsize aircraft.
