SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The global modified polypropylene market size is expected to reach USD 56.35 billion by 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. It is expected to expand at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2021 to 2030. The market is anticipated to grow due to the use of modified polypropylene in the automotive, electrical and electronics, packaging, building and construction, and medical industry across the globe. In modified polypropylene, the processing of polypropylene is done by adding glass fibers and thermoplastic rubbers to improve its impact resistance, flame retardancy, and other properties, thus expanding its scope of application in the above-mentioned industries.
Key Insights & Findings:
- The medical application segment is expected to register the highest CAGR of 6.6% over the forecast period in terms of revenue. This is attributed to the high bacterial and chemical resistance exhibited by modified polypropylene, making it suitable for medical applications
- The automotive application segment dominated the market and accounted for over 65.0% share of the overall revenue in 2020. This is attributed to the growing demand for modified polypropylene from the automotive industry due to its superior properties, thereby making it an alternative to metal alloys and improving the vehicle performance
- The packaging application segment is expected to grow in the years to come owing to the increased demand for modified polypropylene for the packaging of food products
- China led the market and accounted for over 20.0% share of the overall revenue in 2020. Major electrical OEMs have set up manufacturing facilities in China, which is anticipated to increase the demand for modified polypropylene
