簡介目錄

2024年全球PPS市場規模為17億美元，預估至2032年將超過32億美元，預測期間內複合年成長率為6.6%。 PPS憑藉其卓越的性能，加上配方和製造流程的創新，將成為下一代工業應用的戰略材料。

聚苯硫(PPS) 是一種高性能熱塑性塑膠，憑藉其獨特的耐化學性、熱穩定性和機械強度而聲名大噪。 PPS 由雪佛龍菲利普斯公司於 20 世紀 70 年代初實現商業化，現已廣泛應用於各行各業，尤其是在汽車和電氣/電子領域，這些行業的先進材料性能至關重要。作為一種用途廣泛的工程塑膠，PPS 的性能和成本均優於聚醚醚酮 (PEEK) 和聚醚醯亞胺 (PEI) 等替代材料，因此在全球各個市場的需求持續成長。

市場動態與促進因素

PPS 市場成長的主要驅動力在於其在汽車和電子電氣領域的快速應用，使其成為金屬和傳統塑膠日益寶貴的替代品。在汽車製造業中，PPS 用於製造高性能引擎蓋下零件，這些零件的耐熱、耐摩擦和耐化學性是關鍵考慮因素。隨著汽車製造商推行輕量化策略以滿足燃油經濟性和排放目標，PPS 已成為關鍵的推動因素，使其能夠在不影響耐用性和安全性的情況下取代金屬零件。

另一個重要的終端應用領域是電氣和電子產業，將PPS應用於連接器、開關、絕緣元件以及其他需要精密成型、耐高溫和腐蝕環境的零件。濾材是另一個關鍵應用，目前約佔全球PPS消費量的18%，複合年成長率高達8%。航太和國防領域新興的機會需要輕質且高彈性的材料，預計將進一步推動PPS的需求；預計到2032年，該領域將佔據13%的市場佔有率。

雖然 PEEK 和 PEI 在某些指標上表現出色，但 PPS 仍然是一種經濟高效的選擇，尤其在價格敏感的行業中，它常被稱為「大眾的 PEEK」。該聚合物可射出成型，並可添加 30-60% 的填料，使其在各種工業應用中更加靈活。

考慮當地需求

就需求而言，亞太地區將在2024年成為PPS的最大消費地區，佔全球消費量的75%以上，其中中國就佔40%以上。該地區的領先地位得益於其龐大的汽車和電子產品製造基礎，以及持續的基礎設施投資和有利的政策支持。預計2032年，中國市場將維持7%的複合年成長率。

西歐憑藉其強大的汽車和工業基礎，在聚苯硫醚（PPS）需求方面排名第二。緊隨其後的是北美，這得益於汽車、航太和工業加工產業持續的需求。同時，中歐和東歐、拉丁美洲以及中東和非洲的市場佔有率較小，但隨著工業化和基礎設施建設的持續推進，這些新興地區提供了潛在的成長機會。

用途細分與需求趨勢

到2024年，汽車產業將佔據全球PPS需求的最大佔有率，達到40%以上，這主要得益於引擎零件、煞車系統、冷卻零件和動力傳動系統應用。隨著電動車（EV）市場佔有率的持續成長，PPS在電動車電池組件、充電連接器和輕量化結構件中的應用也在不斷成長。

電氣和電子產業也緊隨其後，PPS 被用於開關、插座、繼電器、骨架和其他熱性能要求嚴格的應用。 PPS 的阻燃性和高介電性能使其成為現代電子系統（包括 5G、物聯網和消費性電子產品）的理想選擇。

PPS 在工業濾材中也被廣泛應用，幫助發電廠、水泥廠、廢棄物焚化爐等在惡劣的化學和熱環境中運作。航太和國防目前是一個較小的行業，但由於對先進輕質複合材料的需求，預計將快速成長。

簡介目錄

The global PPS market was valued at USD 1.7 billion in 2024 and is anticipated to surpass USD 3.2 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 6.6% during the forecast period. Its robust performance, coupled with innovation in compounding and manufacturing, positions PPS as a strategic material for next-generation industrial applications.

Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) is a high-performance thermoplastic that has steadily risen to prominence due to its unique combination of chemical resistance, thermal stability, and mechanical strength. Commercialized in the early 1970s by Chevron Phillips, PPS is now widely adopted in diverse industries, especially automotive and electrical & electronics, where advanced material properties are critical. As a versatile engineering plastic that offers both performance and cost advantages compared to alternatives like Polyether Ether Ketone (PEEK) or Polyetherimide (PEI), PPS continues to capture growing demand in various global markets.

PPS is primarily produced using para-dichlorobenzene (p-DCB) and sodium hydrosulfide, both of which carry environmental concerns related to toxicity and groundwater contamination. The chemical-intensive manufacturing process has led to scrutiny, especially in North America and Europe, where regulatory pressures are tightening. For instance, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has listed several legacy chlorinated solvent sites under Superfund designation, allocating multimillion-dollar clean-up budgets.

Market Dynamics and Key Drivers

The primary driver of PPS market growth is its rapid adoption in the automotive and electrical & electronics sectors, where its ability to replace metals and conventional plastics proves increasingly valuable. In automotive manufacturing, PPS is used in high-performance under-the-hood components, where heat, friction, and chemical exposure are significant concerns. As vehicle manufacturers pursue lightweighting initiatives to meet fuel economy and emissions targets, PPS has emerged as a critical enabler for replacing metal components, without compromising durability or safety.

The electrical and electronics industry, another key end-use segment, leverages PPS for components like connectors, switches, and insulation elements that require precision molding and resistance to high temperatures and corrosive environments. Filter media, another important application, currently accounts for approximately 18% of global PPS consumption and is growing at a notable CAGR of 8%. The emerging opportunities in aerospace and defense, which demand lightweight yet resilient materials, are expected to push PPS demand further, with projections estimating this segment to reach 13% of the market by 2032.

While PEEK and PEI offer superior performance on certain metrics, PPS remains a more cost-effective option, often dubbed the "common man's PEEK," particularly in price-sensitive industries. The polymer's ability to be injection molded and compounded with fillers between 30-60% further enhances its usability across various industrial applications.

Key Competitors

As of 2024, global PPS production capacity stands at around 163 kilo tons and is forecasted to exceed 200 kilo tons by 2032. The market is dominated by several key players including Toray Industries, DIC Corporation, Solvay SA, Fortron Industries, Kureha Corporation, Tosoh Corporation, Lion Idemitsu Composites, and SK Chemicals. Toray Industries leads the global PPS market with an 18% share of installed capacity, followed by DIC Corporation at 15%.

Asia-Pacific emerges as the world's largest PPS producer, accounting for three-fourths of global capacity in 2024. The region's dominance is expected to grow further with new capacity additions, particularly in China, Japan, and South Korea. Toray Industries has announced expansions at its Gunsan facility in South Korea and Iwaki plant in Japan, which will bring its total PPS capacity to 32.6 kilo tons globally. These expansions, slated for completion by 2025, are designed to address the rising demand in automotive and electronics, especially in Asia's fast-growing economies.

Regional Demand Insights

In terms of demand, Asia-Pacific was the largest consumer of PPS in 2024, accounting for over 75% of global consumption, with China alone contributing more than 40%. The region's leadership stems from its vast manufacturing base in automotive and electronics, as well as continued infrastructure investments and favorable policy support. The Chinese market is projected to maintain an average annual growth rate of 7% through 2032.

Western Europe ranks second in PPS demand, driven by its strong automotive and industrial base. North America follows closely, supported by ongoing demand in automotive, aerospace, and industrial processing sectors. Meanwhile, Central & Eastern Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa collectively account for a smaller market share but present potential growth opportunities as industrialization and infrastructure development continue in these emerging regions.

Application Breakdown and Demand Trends

In 2024, the automotive sector held the largest share of global PPS demand at over 40%, due to its use in engine parts, brake systems, cooling components, and powertrain applications. As electric vehicles (EVs) continue gaining market share, PPS use in EV battery components, charging connectors, and lightweight structural parts is also growing.

The electrical & electronics sector follows closely, with PPS used in switches, sockets, relays, bobbins, and other thermally critical applications. Its flame retardant and high dielectric properties make it ideal for modern electronic systems, including those in 5G, IoT, and consumer electronics.

PPS also finds significant application in industrial filter media, where it supports operations in harsh chemical and thermal environments such as power plants, cement factories, and waste incinerators. Aerospace & defense, though a smaller segment currently, is forecasted to grow rapidly, driven by demand for advanced lightweight composites.
