The global carbon felt and graphite felt market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.28% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

Carbon felt and graphite felt are similar materials made from carbon fibers and are porous, with carbon felt being the older version of graphite felt. Carbon felt is created by heating synthetic fibers to carbonization temperatures, making the product useful in various fields as an insulator or electrode. Graphite felt is also subjected to further processing, yielding higher conductivity and mechanical characteristics suitable for high-temperature conditions or electrochemical applications. Owing to their specific properties, these materials are versatile in different industries in heat transfer, energy storage, and chemical processing industries.

Further, the mentioned drivers and opportunities are upsurging the market growth:

  • The demand for advanced high-temperature insulation, including carbon felt and graphite felt, is increasing due to organizations' value of productivity and reliability in critical thermal environments. Firwin Corporation supplies high-temperature thermal insulation products that meet equipment's needs. These products include Firwin Plus, Firwin SW1800 Insulation, and Firwin 1200 Insulation Mat. Carbon felt and graphite felt minimize the transfer of heat, thus ensuring that the working environment is steady and the equipment has a longer span and energy conservation. Such insulating solutions become crucial to today's industrial processes as enterprises seek ways to increase and enhance productivity and efficiency.
  • The growing emphasis on sustainability fuels demand for eco-friendly materials such as carbon felt and graphite felt, noted for their recyclability and environmental effect. These materials are utilized in the storage of energy from renewable sources and electric cars as part of the shift towards the use of green energy. In addition, companies operating in industries that strive to cut emissions also employ high-performance insulation solutions, such as carbon and graphite felt, which contribute to market growth. For instance, BMW aims to reduce carbon emissions by 2030. As sustainability becomes a more important factor for organizations and consumers, the carbon felt and graphite felt markets gain from their involvement in improving environmentally friendly practices and technology.

GLOBAL CARBON FELT AND GRAPHITE FELT MARKET DRIVERS:

  • PAN-based carbon felt and graphite felt are gaining popularity.

PAN-based carbon felt and graphite felt have grown across various sectors because of their superior characteristics and versatility. They both have been rising across a broad range of industries since they offer superior characteristics and versatility. These materials have very good thermal resistive characteristics, making them suitable for use in situations that expose materials to high temperatures. Carbon fibers find use in aeronautics, automobiles, battery technology, and industries due to their ability to withstand very high temperatures. Pan Carbon Felt, or Polyacrylonitrile, is planned and used mainly for high-temperature thermal protection in vacuum and inert gas furnaces. Pan is courser fibers, has greater fiber diameter, low surface area, and good oxidation resistance over Rayon. Pan carbon can withstand temperatures of up to 2192? (1200?).

Furthermore, their high electrical conductivity makes them useful in electrical applications like fuel cells and batteries. As businesses seek materials that can fulfill demanding performance requirements, PAN-based carbon felt and graphite felt are becoming increasingly popular, offering innovation and growth in various disciplines.

  • Based on product type, a soft felt segment is gaining popularity.

Soft felts are flexible insulating materials for high temperatures and can only be used in inert or vacuum conditions, and due to their composition, they are made only of carbon fibers. The felt stability is set during the first production phase, the needling phase, and it remains stable in the subsequent heat treatment process. Soft felts can also be used in energy storage devices, for example, in redox-flow batteries, because the structure of the material is well controlled and the material is electrically conductive.

The use of soft felt in the carbon felt and graphite felt market is on the rise as the material provides several advantages. These felts offer unparalleled flexibility and conformability for numerous tasks. The flexibility characteristic is most valuable in applications where the complexity of shapes and forms present is high, such as the aerospace and automotive industries and electronics.

Besides, owing to their highly effective thermal conductivity, their application is useful in places where temperature regulation is important. Soft felts help preserve stable working conditions in thermal control systems; thus, with heat transfer protection, their popularity rises. For instance, CCI offers high-quality rayon-based carbon and graphite felts in various thicknesses. Thermshield(TM) felts are designed to insulate high-temperature furnaces operating in vacuum or inert gas environments. Moreover, this segment's growth demonstrates an increased appreciation of the value proposition provided by soft felts in satisfying the changing demands of diverse sectors.

  • The growing application of carbon felt and graphite felt in semiconductors.

Carbon felt and graphite felt materials typically exhibit excellent thermal stability and are utilized in heat sinks and thermal applications in semiconductors. Their improved compatibility with the harsh chemicals and conditions used in the processes of manufacturing semiconductors enhances the operation reliability and longevity of the equipment. Moreover, their purity and free of contaminants are essential when it comes to addressing the level of cleanness necessary for semiconductor production.

In January 2022, the Department of Commerce released a Request for Information to assist steer CHIPS Act-funded programs to support a robust domestic semiconductor sector. Furthermore, India relies heavily on imports for its semiconductor requirements. India imports 95% of its semiconductors from China, Taiwan, South Korea, and Singapore. While the usage of carbon felt and graphite felt is still relatively new to the semiconductor industry, the versatility of the two felt products is predicted to play a crucial role in the advancement of semiconductor technology in the future.

  • The growing demand for carbon felt and graphite felt in the electrical and electronics industry.

The sales of carbon felt and graphite felt in the electrical and electronics sectors are prime examples of products required to fulfill new technologies and inventions. These materials are valued for their high thermal conductivity and stability, thus gaining wider acceptance among various applications in the electronics industry. According to the World Electronics Update 2020, the electronics sector crossed $2.9 trillion. In the same year, electronics alone had a global market worth nearly equal to India's gross domestic product, US$2.9 trillion.

Carbon felt and graphite felt are also widely used in electronic devices, particularly in heat dissipation solutions. These materials contribute to heat dissipation, which makes the devices' functions perform well and enhances their durability when used under intense heat or pressure.

Furthermore, as the need for energy storage solutions grows, particularly in renewable energy systems and portable electronics, carbon felt and graphite felt are using batteries and supercapacitors due to their potential to improve energy efficiency and cycle stability. In 2022, the US had 40 PSH systems operating in 18 states, with a total nameplate power capacity of around 22,008 MW. The Bath County plant in Virginia is the biggest PSH, with six distinct generators, each having 477 MW nameplate power capacity, for a total of about 2,860 MW of nameplate power capacity that can discharge at full capacity for up to six hours or more.

Carbon felt and graphite felt adaptability and dependability make them essential components for powering the next generation of electrical and electronic devices, driving innovation, and determining the future of technology.

GLOBAL CARBON FELT AND GRAPHITE FELT MARKET GEOGRAPHICAL OUTLOOK
