Activated Carbon Fiber (ACF) Market - Growth, Trends And Forecast (2022 - 2027) By Types, By Application, By Regions and By Key Players - Toyobo, Kuraray, Unitika, Gunei Chem

Acknowledging the kind of traction gained by this market, recently published a study report asserts the global Activated Carbon Fiber (ACF) Market size is projected to accrue voluminously by 2027 registering a phenomenal CAGR of around 4.8% during the review period (2022 to 2027).

Activated Carbon Fiber (ACF) Market Overview

Increasing environmental concerns related to air and water pollution, coupled with activated carbon fiber’s superior properties in comparison to that of powdered activated carbons (PAC) and granular activated carbons (GAC) are expected to drive the demand for the market during the forecast period.

ACFs own superior properties of carbon fiber and activated carbon. These are a modified form of carbon materials with well-defined porous structure, high surface area, and higher absorption capacity. Raw materials employed in synthesizing these include cellulose, polyacrylonitrile, phenolic resin, pitch fiber, and others. ACFs are used in purification of polluted gaseous streams and aqueous streams and numerous chemical recovery operations. The global ACF market is driven by rise in awareness for wastewater treatment among people, growth in usage of activated carbon fibers in air purification and carbon filter material, rise in industrial applications, and necessity of drinking water purification.

Industry News:

Mar 24, 2022: Toyobo Co., Ltd. (Toyobo) and Mitsubishi Corporation (MC) announced agreement to establish a new joint venture company1 that will specialize in the planning, development, manufacturing and sales of functional materials. The terms of our agreement call for the new company to commence operations in January 2023 or sometime thereabouts.

Activated Carbon Fiber (ACF) Market Regional Analysis

North America is expected to hold dominance in the activated carbon fiber market and held around 34% volumetric shares in 2020. The dominance is attributed to stringent government regulations, presence of industry participants, along with establishment of new passenger car production facilities in the region. The growing chemical industry in the region along with the rising number of people suffering from Chronic Kidney Decease (CKD) is expected to drive the demand for ACF products.Asia Pacific is the major producer of ACF across the globe and expected to generate around USD 270 million revenue in 2020. The region has witnessed a high demand for activated carbon fiber products in the recent years owing to stringent air pollution regulations adopted by China, India, and other regional economies. Latin America and the MEA exhibit low to moderate growth owing to a limited distribution network in the region along with high import tax policies.
