Aerospace Adhesives Market Segment Insights
Epoxy segment to expand at a robust CAGR
On the basis of resin types, the aerospace adhesives market is segregated into polyurethane, epoxy, silicone, and others. The epoxy segment is projected to expand at a considerable CAGR during the forecast period. Epoxy exhibits properties such as chemical resistance and high adhesion.
It provides protection against corrosive environments and it has liquid reactive polymer. Such characteristics are anticipated to increase the demand for epoxy adhesives in military, aviation, and commercial sectors.
Waterborne segment to grow at a rapid pace
Based on technology, the market is segregated into solvent-borne, waterborne, and reactive. The waterborne segment is estimated to grow at a rapid pace due its environmentally friendly nature. Additionally, it contains high-water content and retains low toxicity that marks its increased acceptance as a less combustible technology.
This type of adhesive suffices the expanding interest for lightweight, environmentally friendly, and proficient airplane, which drives the development of water-solvent cement in the aviation glues market.
Structural segment is projected to account for a significant market share
In terms of functional types, the market is bifurcated as structural and non-structural. The structural segment is projected to account for a significant market share during the forecast period. Structural adhesives are essential for aerospace bonding applications in both interior and airframes for both composite-to-metal and composites bonds only. Adhesives likewise work extraordinarily in specific applications as shims and surfacing films are utilized for lightning strike protection.
Original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) segment is anticipated to constitute a key market share
Based on end-users, the market is classified as original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and maintenance repair & operations (MRO). The original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) is expected to constitute a key share of the market during the forecast period. Rising aerospace business worldwide is projected to drive the growth for aerospace adhesive manufacturers. Adhesives are used in various places such as displays, seats, cockpit doors, lights, AC, fasteners, and electronics.
The market of North America is anticipated to exhibit a high CAGR
On the basis of regions, the market is segregated into Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. North America is expected to constitute a key share of the market during the forecast period. Expanded spotlight on reinforcing the military by the US government is driving the development of the aerospace adhesives market.
