Industry Overview

Aromatic Ketone Polymers (AKP), also known as poly aryl ether ketones, are crystalline thermoplastics that have major linkage of carbonyl groups. These polymers are termed as high-performance polymers owing to various properties such as excellent temperature performance, inherent purity, stiffness, and improved strength. AKP's are broadly classified into three types namely poly ether ether ketone (PEEK), poly ether ketone ketone (PEKK), and poly ether ketone (PEK). Among these PEEK is widely used across the globe due to thermal stability and high chemical resistance. It provides design flexibility to engineers by improving the performance.

PEEK is extensively used in the mobile phones and other electronic devices manufacturing due to high mechanical and chemical properties. For instance, products of Victrex plc under brand Keta Spire and Ava Spire KEEP are used widely in electronics and other industrial applications. Growing demand for electronic devices with advancement in technology and miniaturization is driving the market growth across the globe. With the introduction of various electronic devices namely smartwatches, cooking appliances, and other consumer electronics coupled with rising per capita income are driving the product demand. Additionally, various initiatives taken by the government of India such as Smart City and Startup India are propelling the market growth. It is increasingly used in automotive, aerospace and other industrial applications due to its lightweight. The demand for lightweight automotive components to curb vehicle weight and reduce carbon emissions is driving the demand for high-performance polymers in the developed regions of North America and Europe. Increasing usage of medical implants is replacing titanium for manufacturing spinal fusion devices due to better biological integration. Recently, Victrex plc introduced a new product under the brand name PEEK-OPTIMA HA for enhanced next-generation spine product. Also, another key player Solvay S.A. introduced new lubricated grades of Zeniva PEEK namely ZA-500 L & ZA-600 L. It is used in neurosurgical and orthopedic applications due to its biocompatibility. The shift of production capacities of various industries such as electronics and automotive from developed economies to developing economies is also driving the demand.
