2021 Polyphenylene Oxide Market - Size, Share, COVID Impact Analysis and Forecast to 2027

The global PPO market is valued at USD 1,527 million in 2019 and is expected to reach USD 2171.8 million by 2026 registering a compounded annual growth rate of 6.54%.

The growth will be majorly driven by robust growth in electronics industry fueled by roll out of 5G infrastructure and its compatible devices.

Poly phenylene oxide (PPO) is prepared by oxidative coupling of phenylene oxide monomer using oxygen and a copper-based catalyst. As unmodified Polyphenylene Oxide is a semi-crystalline thermoplastic and has very limited end use, it will be blended with high impact polystyrene (HIPS) in order to improve melt processability and make it feasible for commercial applications. Further blending with the use of other modifiers, results in various grades of the engineering thermoplastic with differing properties tailored to cater to the needs of individual end-uses.

Polyphenylene Oxide Market is expected to register a negative growth rate of 2.74% in 2020 due to the impact of the pandemic COVID 19 on shutdown of facilities across the world.

Global Polyphenylene Oxide market has declined marginally in 2019 due to limited operations of few industries including automotive, electronics, and electric appliances due US – China trade tensions and prevailing low prices of oil and gas impacting the overall revenue of companies operating in the segment.

Replacement of conventional materials - Polyphenylene oxide is a high-performance, opaque, thermoplastic material. It is known for high resistance to heat, burning, and chemicals, and has good electrical properties. Most commercial grades are glass-fiber reinforced.

The presence of substitutes, including PEEK and PAI, along with fluctuating raw material costs is projected to challenge the growth of the PPO market during the forecast period.

Increasing Demand for PPO In electronics Industry - Electronics industry uses heavy metals like lead solder, exotic and costly materials like superconductors and rare metals, and volatile-organic compounds (VOCs) for degreasing and to strip solder mask, acids for etching, etc.

Environmental Benefits with the use of Polyphenylene Oxide - As the environmental pressure to become greener is increasing, many processes and materials have gotten much cleaner over the years, like lead-free soldering, cadmium-free colorant packages, and low-or no-halogen flame retardants.

PPE/PA remains the most Dominant alloy segment in the Polyphenylene Oxide worldwide with 41.2% market share in 2019.
