The North America High Performance Fibers Market would witness market growth of 10% CAGR during the forecast period (2019-2025).
HPF gradually replaces asbestos with bullet-proof jackets, belts, tires, concrete reinforcing, and heat-proof cushions. Furthermore, various applications have also been found in wind power generator blades, ropes, and fishing nets. The thermal, cut, chemical and abrasion resistance provided by these fibers also improve its use in the manufacture of protective gloves and mooring ropes. Toxicity issues related to the manufacture of carbon-reinforced fiber composites may have a negative impact on the market. Nevertheless, the increased fuel efficiency and the reduction of emissions in vehicles and aircraft due to the application of high-performance fiber are projected to support the industry over the forecast period.
Textile Fibers plays a significant role in the material world. Presently, compared to textile fibers, High-Performance Fibers hold a higher foothold in the market. These are distinct from conventional fibers, which are capable of meeting specific technical requirements due to their unique properties. Many high-performance fabrics, such as Kevlar, Nomex, carbon, glass, etc., have more tensile strength, heat and flame resistance, chemical agent resistance than traditional fibers and materials such as steel. For example, initially, a car body was made of metal but it is now made of composite fiber. It has reduced weight and improved aerodynamic design. In sportswear, specially-curated textured nylon fiber is used to enhance the strength and breathability of sportswear.
