Electric Vehicle Engineering Plastics Market: Dynamics
Engineering plastics are high-performance plastics with excellent mechanical strength, heat-resistance, chemical resistance, and other properties. They are used in every facet of modern life from automobiles, household appliances and electronic devices to aircraft as well as food and medical products packaging. Several industries, including aerospace, automotive, and household appliance production use electric vehicle engineering plastics in vapor degreasing of metal parts to remove soil and metal chips during fabrication and prior to galvanization.
The use of engineering plastics in electric vehicles reduces the weight of these vehicles, which provides a greater range between recharges. Plastics offer excellent heat resistance, which enables the construction of battery compartments and cooling systems, and do not hamper the durability and safety provided by electric vehicles.
The global interior trim segment is expected to expand considerably during the forecast period. Thus, rise in production of interior trim, exterior trim, and electronic components is projected to boost the demand for electric vehicle engineering plastics during the forecast period.
Manufacturers are focusing on interior trim, as the share held by this segment in the electric vehicle engineering plastics market is likely to increase during the forecast period.
