The growth of the polyimide films market is mainly driven by growing applications of PI films in semiconductor and electronics component manufacturing sector. Polyimide (PI) films are made of polyimide, which is polymer of imide monomer. Polyimide films are known for their higher chemical resistance, high temperature resistance and high dielectric constant. Owing to such unique properties, PI films are used in manufacturing of heat resistant electronics components such as flexible printed circuit (FPC), pressure sensitive tape, wires and others.
Asia-Pacific held the largest share of the polyimide films market in terms of both revenue and volume in 2016. In Asia-Pacific, PI films are mostly consumed in semiconductor foundries and semiconductor component manufacturing facilities located in Taiwan, China and Japan. In addition, growing usage of PI films based electronics devices among users has created surge in demand for the polyimide films market.
North America held the second largest share of the polyimide films market in 2016. Major growth drivers for the market in the region are growing usage of PI tapes in high-tech aerospace industry, growing demand of insulation tape for manufacturing body parts in automotive industry and emergence of application of PI films in medical sector. Product innovation by leading polyimide products manufacturers also boosted the growth of the market.
Owing to enhanced characteristics such as improved moisture and oxygen barrier property, the preference of transparent PI films has increased in the recent years. Transparent PI films possess the merits of both conventional and aromatic PI films. Increased use of these polyimides in medical and semiconductor applications for microelectronic and optoelectronic fabrications, further provides lucrative growth opportunities to the global polyimide films market.
Some of the major players operating in the PI films industry are E.I. Du Pont De Nemours and Company, Kaneka Corporation, Saint-Gobain S.A., SKCKOLONPI, Inc., Arakawa Chemicals Industries, Ltd., Taimide Tech. Inc., Yunda Electronic Materials Co., Ltd., I.S.T. Corporation, FLEXcon Company, Inc., and UBE Industries Ltd.
