簡介目錄

預計 2023 年至 2032 年間，全球液晶聚合物 (LCP) 市場規模將以 6.4% 的強勁複合年成長率成長。這一擴張主要受到電氣和電子行業需求成長的推動。

液晶聚合物 (LCP) 是一種芳香族聚酯，具有液晶相，其特徵是分子結構高度有序，部分結晶。 LCP 具有優異的物理性能和耐化學性，使其成為先進應用中金屬、陶瓷和各種工程塑膠的理想替代品。 LCP 常用於印刷電路板 (PCB) 和表面黏著型元件等電子元件。

LCP 的全球商業化生產始於 20 世紀 80 年代。主要的純 LCP 樹脂製造商包括寶理塑膠、泰科納、東麗、索爾維、住友和上野。寶理塑膠是最大的製造商，其生產工廠位於日本富士。 LCP 樹脂的生產設施主要集中在日本、中國和美國。預計未來 5-6 年 LCP 需求將以 5.0-5.2% 左右的複合年成長率成長。

需求：依用途

目前，LCP 的最大消費者是電氣電子和消費性電子產業，預計這一趨勢將在整個預測期內持續下去。其他應用包括汽車產業（尤其是混合動力汽車動力傳動系統）、工業應用、醫療設備、航太，甚至是烘焙用具。

電氣和電子基礎設施的蓬勃發展是推動LCP需求的主要動力。超薄設計推動的電子元件小型化以及無鉛焊接的需求，對LCP需求的成長起到了至關重要的作用。此外，汽車電氣化、物聯網和5G技術等新興趨勢也刺激了LCP消費的成長。

全球各地的製造商正在擴大產能，以滿足電氣和電子行業日益成長的需求。人口成長、可支配收入增加以及人均塑膠消費量增加等因素進一步推動了需求。儘管液晶聚合物 (LCP) 的價格往往高於其他一般塑膠，但由於其優異的性能特徵，它們仍被廣泛採用。

主要LCP製造商

LCP主要生產廠商有塞拉尼斯、寶理塑膠、東麗、住友化學、上野精細化工、Syensqo（索爾維）、深圳市沃特新材料股份有限公司、上海普利特複合材料有限公司、金髮科技股份有限公司、寧波聚嘉新材料科技有限公司等。

需求分析：依地區

2023年，亞太地區將主導全球LCP市場，佔全球需求的75%以上。中國憑藉其強勁的電氣和電子產業，引領該地區的需求。亞洲其他主要市場包括台灣、日本、印度、新加坡和韓國，這些市場在該地區工業格局中都扮演著重要角色。

歐洲目前約佔全球半導體銷售額的10%，但目標是在未來十年內將半導體產量比重提升至30%。為支持這一目標，歐盟頒布了《歐盟晶片法案》，旨在吸引超過430億歐元的私人投資，以提升半導體製造能力。預計這項措施將在未來幾年提振歐洲電氣和電子產業對液晶聚合物（LCP）的需求。

LCP市場促進因素

LCP 具有出色的剛性、低品質和高內部阻尼，使其成為高效能音訊應用的理想選擇。 LCP 材質重量輕且熱穩定，能夠快速回應音訊訊號，提供清晰的高音、可控的中音以及深沉渾厚的低音。這些特性也使 LCP 驅動器在溫度和濕度變化的情況下仍然經久耐用且穩定。 LCP 驅動器常用於高階耳機和入耳式監聽器，因其清晰均衡的音訊而備受推崇，無論是日常聆聽還是專業監聽，都能提供理想的音質。高效率和低功耗進一步增強了其在智慧型手機和無線耳機等行動裝置上的適用性。

簡介目錄

The global Liquid Crystal Polymers (LCP) market is expected to witness robust growth from 2023 to 2032, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.4%. This expansion is largely driven by rising demand from the electrical and electronics sectors.

Liquid Crystal Polymers (LCPs) are aromatic polyesters that exhibit a liquid crystal phase, featuring a partially crystalline structure with molecules arranged in a highly ordered alignment. Their exceptional physical properties and chemical resistance allow them to serve as substitutes for metals, ceramics, and various engineering plastics in advanced applications. LCPs are commonly used in electronic components such as printed circuit boards and surface-mounted devices.

Commercial production of LCPs began in the 1980s. Key manufacturers of pure LCP resins include Polyplastics, Ticona, Toray, Solvay, Sumitomo, and Ueno. Polyplastics leads as the largest producer, operating a manufacturing plant in Fuji, Japan. Production facilities for LCP resins are primarily concentrated in Japan, China, and the United States. The global demand for LCP is projected to grow at a CAGR of approximately 5.0-5.2% over the next five to six years.

Demand by Application

Currently, the largest consumers of LCPs are the electrical & electronics and consumer electronics industries, a trend expected to continue throughout the forecast period. Additional applications include automotive sectors (notably hybrid vehicle powertrains), industrial uses, medical devices, aerospace, and even bakeware.

The rising development of electrical and electronics infrastructure is a primary driver of LCP demand. The push for miniaturization of electronic components, driven by requirements for ultra-thin designs and lead-free soldering, significantly contributes to this growth. Additionally, emerging trends like automotive electrification, the Internet of Things (IoT), and 5G technology are fueling increased consumption of LCPs.

Manufacturers worldwide are expanding production capacities to meet the growing needs of the electrical and electronics industries. Factors such as population growth, rising disposable incomes, and higher per capita plastic consumption are further supporting demand. Although LCPs tend to be more expensive than other commodity plastics, their superior performance properties justify their broader adoption.

Key Manufacturers of LCP

Leading LCP manufacturers include Celanese Corporation, Polyplastics, Toray Industries, Inc., Sumitomo Chemical, Ueno Fine Chemicals, Syensqo (Solvay), Shenzhen Water New Materials Co., Ltd., Shanghai Pret Composites Co Ltd, Kingfa SCI. & TECH Co., Ningbo JUJIA New Material Technology Co., Ltd., and DZT Engineering Plastics Tech. Co., Ltd.Recent Market Developments

In February 2025, Sumitomo Chemical acquired Syensqo SA/NV's (Solvay) LCP neat resin business. This strategic move aims to enhance Sumitomo's product portfolio and strengthen its market presence, particularly in fast-growing sectors like mobility and ICT.

Similarly, Polyplastics Co., Ltd is constructing a new LCP polymerization unit at its Kaohsiung, Taiwan site, adding 5,000 tons per year to its integrated LCP compound production capabilities. This unit is slated to begin operations in the first half of 2024, with plans to double polymerization capacity in the future, aiming for a total capacity of 25,000 tons annually. Sumitomo Chemical also plans a 30% capacity increase at its two Japanese LCP resin plants located in Ehime and Osaka. The expanded operations are expected to commence by the third quarter of 2023, boosting Sumitomo's global polymer capacity to approximately 11,500 tons, according to Prismane Consulting's capacity database.

Demand Analysis by Region

In 2023, the Asia-Pacific region dominated the global LCP market, accounting for more than 75% of worldwide demand. China leads the region's demand due to its robust electrical and electronics industries. Other key markets in Asia include Taiwan, Japan, India, Singapore, and South Korea, all of which play important roles in the region's industrial landscape.

Europe currently represents about 10% of global semiconductor sales but aims to increase its semiconductor production share to 30% within the next decade. To support this, the European Union has enacted the EU Chips Act, which seeks to attract over €43 billion in private investment to strengthen semiconductor manufacturing capabilities. This initiative is expected to boost LCP demand in Europe's electrical and electronics sectors in the coming years.

LCP Market Drivers

LCPs offer excellent stiffness, low mass, and high internal damping, making them ideal for high-performance audio applications. An LCP driver benefits from the polymer's ability to maintain shape and resist unwanted resonances, resulting in accurate sound reproduction with minimal distortion across a wide frequency range.Because LCP materials are lightweight and thermally stable, they respond quickly to audio signals, enabling crisp highs, controlled mids, and deep, tight bass. These properties also make LCP drivers more durable and consistent across varying temperatures and humidity levels. Commonly found in premium headphones and in-ear monitors, LCP drivers are praised for delivering clear, balanced audio suitable for both casual listening and professional monitoring. Their high efficiency and low power consumption further enhance their suitability for portable devices like smartphones and wireless earbuds.
