Plastics Dielectric Films Market Segment Analysis - By Geography 

Asia Pacific dominated the plastics dielectric films market with a share of 30% in 2020 owing to an increase in demand for energy due to the rise in industrialization and digitalization in developing countries such as China, and India. The demand for plastics dielectric films rapidly increases from various end-use industries such as electronics, automobile, and renewable sectors in the region. Apart from this, China dominates the market with a rapidly growing renewable power generation sector. Most of the electricity in China comes from coal, which accounted for 65% of the electricity generation mix in 2019. As of 2020, China installed solar power with a capacity of 240GW and wind power with a capacity of 240 GW. Also, the rapidly growing electronics industry, mainly in Southeast Asian countries such as Vietnam, and Malaysia is driving the regional market growth of plastic dielectric films. According to the International Trade Center (ITC), in Malaysia, the LED TVs exportation increased by US$ 5.3 million in 2020 as compared to US$ 4.05 million in 2019. Additionally, in Vietnam, TV exportation increased from US$ 56.3 million in 2019 to US$ 69.6 million in 2020. Hence, such factors are growing demand for plastics dielectric films during the projected era.

Plastics Dielectric Films Market Drivers

Increasing Demand from Electrical & Electronics Sector

Plastics dielectric films are widely used in consumer electronic products such as LCD, TVs, PCs, printers, and media tablets, as these are lightweight, small in size, and cost-efficient. Polycarbonate materials are widely used in smartphones due to their high impact resistance, good temperature resistance, and flexibility. Plastic dielectric films are providing excellent dielectric properties such as low shrinkage and thermal stability, thus it is widely used in display technologies such as LCDs, smartphones, and LEDs. According to the India Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF), smartphone users are expected to reach 780 million in 2021, thus the Indian Government set a target to produce smartphones around US$ 190 billion by 2025.

Plastics Dielectric Films Market Challenges

Volatile Raw Material Prices

Plastics are derived from natural, organic materials such as cellulose, coal and natural gas, salt, and crude oil. Most polymers are obtained from crude oil often found deep within the earth's crust. It is accessed by drilling, which can be a costly and messy process. Plastic polymer, ethylene glycol, terephthalic acid are basic raw materials for the production of plastic dielectric films, which are also derived from crude oil. According to BP static, Oil prices declined US$64.21/bbl in 2019 as compared with US$71.31/bbl in 2018. Hence, the fluctuation of crude oil prices and the costly process may hamper the production of plastics dielectric films.
