According to Ravi Bhandari, Research Head, 6Wresearch, the virgin segment is expected to witness upward growth trajectory in the Mexico Carbon Fiber and Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic Market. This can be attributed to the increasing demand for high-quality carbon fiber with consistent properties, particularly in industries such as aerospace and defense. Virgin carbon fiber offers superior strength, stiffness, and durability compared to recycled sources, making it a preferred choice for critical applications.
The PAN (Polyacrylonitrile) segment is expected to dominate the Mexico Carbon Fiber and Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic Market Share. PAN is the most widely used precursor for carbon fiber production, accounting for over 90% of global production. This can be attributed to its excellent mechanical properties, such as high strength and modulus, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
The thermoplastic segment is expected to witness tremendous growth in the Mexico Carbon Fiber and Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic Market. This can be attributed to its high ductility, impact resistance, and recyclability, making it a preferred choice for industries such as automotive and consumer goods. The thermosetting resin segment also holds a considerable share in the market, owing to its superior heat and chemical resistance, making it suitable for applications in aerospace and defense.
The resin transfer molding (RTM) segment is expected to experience in the Mexico Carbon Fiber and Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic Market. This process involves injecting liquid resin into a closed mold containing dry carbon fiber, which then cures under heat and pressure. RTM offers better control over the distribution of resin and fiber, resulting in high-quality products with consistent properties.
