Hybrid Composites Market Analysis 2020-2027:

Hybrid composites are composite materials crafted from a mixture of two or more forms of reinforcing fibers. These composites exhibit high impact resistance and strength in comparison to different traditional composites. Hybrid composites are utilized in applications where a mixture of properties offered through distinct reinforcing fibers is needed. The strength of the hybrid composite is likewise dependent on the failure strain of individual fibers. Hybrid composites offer wider opportunities to control material stiffness, strength, and price. Moreover, they are low price and are lightweight. Hybrid composites are highly appropriate for utilization in automobile & transportation and aerospace end-use industries, which require lightweight materials with high strength and flammability performance. Building & construction and wind power are predicted to be the rapidly developing segments of the worldwide hybrid composites market.

COVID-19 scenario analysis

The outbreak of the coronavirus has forced the government to restrict movement and implementation of lockdown, which result in shutdown of various industries. Industries such as automobiles and aerospace are adversely affected by the virus outbreak. The government has imposed stay home policy, which has led to lack of man power in industries. Moreover, travel restrictions to prevent the spread of virus has further reduced the demand for the automobiles and aerospace industries. These factors are responsible for decline in demand for the hybrid composite market in the upcoming one/two years.

Market scenario analysis

Surge in demand for lightweight materials within the automotive industry is a key aspect projected to drive the growth of the hybrid composites market. The properties exhibited by hybrid composites in contrast to traditional composites is a primary driving force of the global market. The wind energy sector is one among the largest users of hybrid composite materials. Composites are generally utilized in manufacturing nacelle and blades, which improve the efficiency of turbines. This will further enhance the demand for the hybrid composites. Increase in importance of lightweight railway components is predicted to enhance the demand for hybrid composites within the transportation industry during the forecast period. Furthermore, the expansion of the construction& production industry in developing countries due to rapid urbanization and industrialization is predicted to reinforce the growth of the hybrid composites market. However, high production and high technology costs of hybrid composites are anticipated hamper the growth of the target market.

Market trends

Hybrid carbon fiber/glass fiber material is a lightweight and high-strength substitute for classic fiberglass and metallic applications within the automobile & transportation, building & construction, and other business markets. Components made out of these hybrid composites provide a high strength to weight ratio and are devoid of corrosion. They have prolonged service life requiring less maintenance. Their high specific properties meet the needs of applications that require significance on protection and strength.
