Interest in tow prepreg as a material for dry filament winding is growing as the dry filament winding process emerges as a reliable alternative to the traditional filament winding (also known as wet filament winding) approach. Recent trends of increasing use of carbon fiber tow prepreg for high-performance rocket motor cases, high-quality commercial pressure vessels, and hydrogen vehicle fuel tanks in the industrial sector is expected to drive the tow prepreg market growth. Ballistic and explosion protection systems, structural components in armored fighting vehicles, military shelters, and pallets, as well as lightweight material, all use prepregs in military and defense sector.

Carbon-fiber-reinforced prepreg sheet is increasingly used in aircraft, spacecraft, and vehicles to increase fuel efficiency and reduce body weight, implying that demand will continue to expand in the coming years. Molding and processing carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) composite materials, such as prepreg sheets, has traditionally taken a long time, and such technologies that reduce molding durations are viewed as vital to its widespread adoption.

Impact of COVID-19 on Global Tow Prepreg Market

The aerospace and defense industries were thrown into chaos by COVID-19 pandemic. Most airlines, as well as OEMs and their suppliers in aircraft production ecosystem, were facing a significant drop in revenue and cash flow. The composite demand in aircraft manufacturing declined due to massive impact on material suppliers. Composite materials like tow prepreg are widely used in the aircraft sector. Composites have risen to prominence in the aerospace, defense, and automotive industries as a result of growing environmental concerns and the search for high-strength, light-weighting materials to improve fuel efficiency. The performance of major end use industries like as aerospace, defense, and automotive has a significant impact on the demand for process materials in the composites industry. As these industries recover from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, demand for composite materials like tow prepreg for manufacturing will increase. Hence, the tow prepreg market is expected to witness growth over the next few years.

Tow Prepreg Market, By Resin

The resin segment is categorized into epoxy resin, phenolic resin, others. The epoxy resin segment is projected to capture the largest share of the market. Epoxy resins are light and have mechanical characteristics including strength and rigidity, as well as heat and corrosion resistance. It's used in a variety of industries, including aviation/space, automobiles, rail cars, ships, civil engineering, and sporting equipment. Many epoxy resins are utilized, some of which are very good at adhering to carbon fibers.

Tow Prepreg Market, By Fiber

The fiber segment of the market is divided into carbon fiber, glass fiber, others. The carbon fiber segment of the market is anticipated to account for the largest segment of the market. Impregnating fibers, such as carbon fiber, produces prepreg. This material is used in advanced composite materials (ACMs) for rockets and airplanes. The most crucial feature is that it is only a quarter the weight of steel but 10 times stronger, with additional outstanding properties including fatigue resistance, corrosion resistance, and chemical resistance.

Tow Prepreg Market, By Application

The application segment is categorized into pressure vessels, scuba tanks, oxygen cylinders, others. The pressure vessels segment is expected to be the largest segment. Tow prepregs are the material of choice for pressure vessels and are used in a variety of markets including aerospace, defense, industrial, infrastructure, recreation, and marine. From high-performance rocket motor cases to the highest quality commercial pressure cylinders, tow prepregs are the material of choice for pressure vessels and are used in a several sectors.

Tow Prepreg Market, By End-Use Industry

The end-use industry segment is divided into automotive, aerospace & defense, sports & recreational, oil & gas, others.

The automotive segment is anticipated to be the largest segment. Carbon fiber composite materials have exploded onto the industrial landscape. The combination of high tensile strength and low weight has shown to be quite beneficial in a variety of applications, including automotive. Carbon fiber composite is widely used in automobile parts that require a high level of durability.
