Thermal Adhesive Tape Market - Forecast(2024 - 2030)
Thermal Adhesive Tape Market Overview
The
global thermal adhesive tape market size is estimated to reach US$ 11.5 billion
by 2027 after growing at a CAGR of around 6.2% from 2022 to 2027. Thermal
adhesive tape are high performance acrylic foam tapes coated with pressure
sensitive adhesive, which are designed to provide a preferential
heat transfer path between heat generating components and heat sinks.
Such tape is made of heat resisting materials like polyvinyl chloride, derived
from vinyl chloride monomer and is backed up by rubber, silicone or acrylic
based adhesives. The tape is used in LED lighting, for heat sink attachment, as
insulation material and in E-vehicles batteries for heat management. Hence, due
to such unique applicability, thermal adhesive tape has high applicability in
sectors like automotive, construction and electronics. Factors like growing
demand for e-vehicles, increase in residential construction and high
consumption of electronic item like smartphone are driving growth of global
thermal adhesive tape market. However, costly nature of certain adhesives like
acrylic and silicone can affect the production output of thermal adhesive tape,
which can hamper the growth of global thermal adhesive tape industry.
COVID-19 Impact
The lockdown imposed by the countries in order to curb the effect of COVID-19, had a negative impact on the major end users of thermal adhesive tape like automotive, construction and electronics. The restriction on workplaces and movement of raw material supplies decreased the productivity of these sectors, which negatively impacted the demand for thermal adhesive tape. For instance, according to European Automobile Manufacture Association, in April 2020, commercial vehicle registrations in the European Union declined by 67%, as most of Europe was under lockdown for entire month. According to Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation, in June 2020, number of housing construction was 211,972 units compared to 243,054 units in 2019 same month, showing 14.6% decrease. Further, according to China Academy of Information and Communications, in 2020, China domestic smartphone shipment decreased to 20.4% compared to 2019. Thermal adhesive tape is used in commercial vehicles for fixing roofbars and for headlight bonding, in residential construction it is used for bonding of insulation on walls while in smartphones, it is used for component bonding. The decrease in productivity of these sectors on account of COVID-19 restrictions, has reduced the usage of thermal adhesive tape in them, which has decreased the growth of global thermal adhesive tape industry.
