The global hybrid composites market size is anticipated to reach USD 1.4 billion by 2027 registering a CAGR of 13.4%, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market growth can be attributed to the growing product demand in the manufacturing of wind energy components.
Hybrid composites are made from a combination of two or more types of reinforcing fibers. Carbon-glass epoxy and carbon-aramid epoxy are predominantly used as hybrid composites owing to their unique properties, such as low density, high strength, and high impact resistance. They have high lateral as well as longitudinal mechanical strength.
These composites offer unique characteristics that are useful in numerous structures and structural components in automotive, aircraft, marine, and windmills without affecting their structural performance and durability. Furthermore, the use of natural fibers in hybrid composites makes the structure more economical as well as eco-friendly.
The market is highly competitive; thus, companies have undertaken various business strategies, such as technology innovations, partnerships, and merger & acquisitions, to manufacture cost-effective and lightweight products.
