Polyphenylsulfone Market Analysis

Polyphenylsulfone Market Analysis

Polyphenylsulfone sheet market size was valued at over USD 170 million in 2018. These are widely used in medical applications which include sterilization hot trays, dental & surgical instruments, and food service trays. The material protects the surgical instruments from the damaging effects of microorganisms and inhibit the spread of fungi which may cause polymer degradation, thereby stimulating the industry growth.  

Polyphenylsulfone market size from medical application may register gains close to 9.5% over the forecast period. Rising geriatric population and their demand for preventive, restorative and surgical devices for dental care is likely to boost PPSU market. This material is used in dental and orthopaedic instruments owing to its high impact resistance, transparency, design flexibility, exceptional sterilization durability and resistance to cleaning agents and disinfectants, which may favour the product demand.

Polyphenylsulfone (PPSU) market size from automotive applications was valued at over USD 35 million in 2018. PPSU is used in manufacturing of filtration membrane, trays, and electrical sockets in automotive industry, may stimulate the industry demand. Growing product usage across automotive industry may enhance the fuel efficiency, thereby stimulating the industry growth.

Polyphenylsulfone market demand from baby bottles application may surpass USD 70 million by 2025. This product is used in baby bottles manufacturing as it does not absorb odour or colours and is durable, which may stimulate the industry growth.

North America, driven by the Canada, Mexico, and the U.S. polyphenylsulfone market size may register significant growth at over 9% up to 2025. Increase in dental implants & oral surgeries owing to rise in elderly population, diabetes, and medication will furl product demand. The long-term hydrolytic stability makes the material more usable in medical devices which can withstand 1,000 cycles of steam sterilization.

Europe driven by Germany, UK and France PPSU market demand was valued at over USD at over 75 million in 2018. Increasing consumer demand for medium sized automotive vehicles with light weight features may boost demand for PPSU product. It is also used in automotive parts including oil pumps, oil control pistons, transmission and bezels. This product is also used as an alternative material in automobile headlight which are capable of surviving continuous operating temperatures of 190-200 degree Celsius, without property degradation, thereby stimulating the industry growth.

Asia Pacific driven by India, Japan, and China polyphenylsulfone market size may witness significant growth at about 10% during the forecast period. Rapid industrialization in China and India which strengthen the automotive industry through upstream & downstream linkages in various end-use industries, may foster the industry growth.
