Polyimide Market Growth & Trends:
The global polyimide market size is anticipated to reach USD 1,833.7 million by 2030 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 9.0% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The global market is primarily driven by increasing demand from electronics and semiconductor industries. Polyimides offer exceptional thermal stability, chemical resistance, and mechanical properties that make them ideal for flexible circuit boards, semiconductor insulation, and display technologies. For example, the rapid growth of smartphones, tablets, and wearable electronics has created substantial demand for flexible polyimide films used in their internal components, while the expansion of data centers and cloud computing infrastructure requires high-performance insulators capable of withstanding extreme conditions.
The aerospace and automotive sectors represent another significant growth driver as manufacturers seek lightweight, durable materials capable of withstanding harsh environments. In aerospace applications, polyimides are utilized in aircraft components, insulation, and composite materials where weight reduction directly translates to fuel efficiency and reduced emissions. Similarly, in automotive manufacturing, the shift toward electric vehicles have increased demand for polyimide-based components in battery systems, motor insulation, and lightweight structural elements.
The miniaturization trend across industries has substantially benefited the polyimide industry as designers require materials with excellent dimensional stability at microscopic scales. Medical device manufacturers increasingly utilize polyimides for components requiring biocompatibility and sterilization resistance, such as catheters, implantable devices, and surgical instruments. In addition, the renewable energy sector employs polyimides in solar panels, fuel cells, and energy storage systems due to their exceptional durability and resistance to environmental degradation.
The Asia Pacific region dominates the global market, accounting for the largest market share due to its robust electronics manufacturing ecosystem. Countries such as China, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan host extensive semiconductor, consumer electronics, and display manufacturing facilities that heavily utilize polyimide materials. Japan remains a key producer of high-quality polyimide films and resins through companies such as UBE Corporation and Kaneka Corporation, while China has rapidly expanded its manufacturing capacity to meet domestic demand and reduce import dependence.
Polyimide Market Report Highlights:
- Based on type, the polyimide film segment led the market with the largest revenue share of 68.24% in 2024 and is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR of 9.4% during the forecast period.
- Based on applications, the electrical & electronics segment led the market with the largest revenue share of 47.90% in 2024. The automotive & transportation segment is anticipated to grow at the fastest CAGR of 9.6% over the forecast period.
- Asia Pacific dominated the market with the largest revenue market share of 53.68% in 2024 and is anticipated to grow at the fastest CAGR of 9.4% during the forecast period.
- In December 2023, Arkema completed its acquisition of a 54% stake in PIAM, a South Korean company, for EUR 728 million (approximately USD 760 million). This gives Arkema majority control and full consolidation of PIAM. PIAM is the world's largest producer of polyimide films, which are used in mobile devices and electric vehicles. Arkema expects PIAM's sales to grow by about 13% annually due to the increasing use of these films in 5G antennas, OLED displays, flexible screens, and EVs.
