Based on Fiber Type, Ceramic fiber composites segment is expected to have the second largest share of the aerospace composites market in 2023 by value. Ceramic matrix composites are a type of composite material that consists of ceramic fibers embedded in a ceramic matrix. These composites are used in high-temperature applications, such as in the aerospace industry, where they provide high strength and fracture toughness. Ceramic matrix composites are made by manufacturing a technical ceramic matrix material with small particle size, high purity, and good mechanical, thermal, and electrical resistance. The matrix is then reinforced with ceramic fibers, such as silicon carbide (SiC), alumina (Al2O3), or mullite (Al2O3-SiO2), which increase the composite’s resistance to crack propagation and provide high ultimate tensile strength (UTS). CMCs are used in various aircraft applications, such as in turbine blades, exhaust mixers, combustors, and turbines, where they provide high temperature resistance, lightweight, and improved performance.

Based on Matrix Type, Polymer matrix segment is expected to be second fastest growing segment in aerospace composites market during forecasted period. Polymer matrix composites are lightweight and offer high strength to weight ratio, making them ideal for applications where fuel efficiency is a major concern.  They also resist corrosion, which is important for the long-term durability of aircraft.

Based on Manufacturing Process, the resin transfer molding manufacturing process segment is expected to have the second largest share of the aerospace composites market in 2023 by value. Resin transfer molding (RTM) is a manufacturing process for aerospace composites that involves placing dry fabrics into molds, injecting resin, and curing. This process is gaining traction in the aerospace industry due to its advantages over traditional manufacturing processes, such as autoclave, in terms of cost-effectiveness, lower energy consumption, and higher production rates. Resin transfer molding has been used in the aerospace industry since the 1980s and is becoming increasingly popular due to its ability to produce complex geometries and high-quality finishes on all visible molded surfaces. These advantages make resin transfer molding a promising alternative to traditional manufacturing processes, particularly for high-volume production of aerospace composites.
