Global High Strength Aluminum Alloys Market Size, Trends & Analysis - Forecasts to 2026 By Product (Wrought and Cast), By Strength (High-Strength and Ultra-High Strength), By End-User (Aerospace & Defense, Automotive & Transportation, Marine, and Others), By Region (North America, Asia Pacific, Europe, Latin America, Middle East & Africa); End-User Landscape, Company Market Share Analysis, and Competitor Analysis
The global high strength aluminum alloys market is projected to grow from USD 37.94 billion in 2020 to USD 55.54 billion by 2026 at a CAGR of 7.9% between 2021 and 2026. The growing preference for lighter-weight components in the automotive industry is anticipated to accelerate the product penetration. The demand for lightweight components has been driven by the increasing regulatory requirements by governing bodies linked to fuel efficiency and emissions among OEMs. Furthermore, the growing demand for aluminum alloys as a steel substitute in premium vehicles and buses is expected to propel the consumer base ahead during the forecast period.
The market is divided into two segments: wrought and cast alloy. Wrought aluminum has exceptional mechanical qualities and may be fashioned into a variety of conventional and custom shapes. The alloy is subsequently smelted and formed into billets or big slabs. Afterward, the substance is molded by rolling, hammering, or compression.
When compared to wrought aluminum, cast aluminum has a higher amount of alloying elements. Due to the difficulties in eradicating casting imperfections, cast aluminum has a lower tensile strength than wrought aluminum. Bauxite is used to make cast aluminum alloy. This naturally produced material seems to be the only ore used in commercial aluminum extraction and yields 15-20 percent aluminum. Because of their poor tensile strength, cast aluminum alloys are rarely employed for structural components.
Compared to cast alloys, wrought aluminum alloys have greater mechanical qualities, such as better surface finishes, and are easier to manufacture and form.
Based on the strength, the market is segmented into high-strength and ultra-high-strength segments. Pure aluminum has a low compressive strength. However, alloying elements such as manganese, silicon, copper, and magnesium can be added to to boost its strength and generate the final material with qualities suitable to certain purposes. The high-strength segment is envisaged to grow at a faster rate than the ultra-high-strength aluminum alloy owing to the growing demand from the automotive industry.
On the other hand, the ultra-high-strength segment is expected to hold a greater share of the market than the high-strength segment.
By end-user, the market is categorized into automotive & transportation, aerospace & defense, and marine among others. Among the aforementioned end-users, one of the essential industries that drive economic growth is the automotive and transportation industry. The increased demand for automobiles has increased transportation-related emissions, and stakeholders in the industry are concentrating on improving vehicle performance to provide sustainable and environmentally-friendly transportation. The main focus is on increasing fuel efficiency while lowering pollution. Because it takes less energy to propel a lighter object than a heavier one, vehicle weight is an important component that directly impacts emissions and fuel economy.
APAC is the leading region in the market owing to the expanding material applicability in the automotive end-use industry. The European market is envisaged to grow much more quickly than any of the regions during the forecast period. High-strength aluminum alloys have been used in the steering wheel, engine parts, pistons, powertrain, front and back transversal frameworks, and many other purposes in the automotive and aerospace sectors.
Rio Tinto P.L.C., Norsk Hydro A.S.A., Hindalco Industries Limited, Alcoa Inc., United Company (UC) Rusal, Aluminium Bahrain B.S.C., Aluminum Corporation of China Ltd., Century Aluminum Company, China Hongqiao Group Ltd., and Aleris, among others are the major players in the market.
