The polyetherketoneketone (PEKK) market was valued at USD 35.8 million in 2020 and expected to register a CAGR of 10.7% during the forecast period. It offers excellent resistance to chemical and abrasion. Among high-performance polymers, PEKK can resist extreme environments making it an ideal for use in the aerospace and oil exploration industries. In addition, when PEKK is reinforced with carbon fibers, it becomes as rigid as metal and exhibits significant lightweight properties. In the aerospace industry, PEKK is used as a high-performance alternative in motor and engine owing to its capability to withstand extreme conditions. According to the Aerospace Industries Association, the aerospace and defense industry grew by 3.0% in 2019. The US aerospace and defense industry contributes major share towards revenue generation of the aerospace industry, which was USD 865 billion in 2022. Thus, the growing aerospace industry is positively expected to influence the demand for PEKK during the forecast period.
