petroleum pitch market: Specific Opportunities and Trends Affecting the Growth

brake pads accounted for USD 365.7 million in revenue share in the petroleum pitch market, a trend that is expected to continue over the coming years.

Petroleum pitch market

The petroleum pitch market has been expanding exponentially over the last few decades due to the extensive application of pitch in tar, bitumen, and asphalt which are widely used in the construction, aerospace, and automotive industries. petroleum pitch market is a viscoelastic polymer that is extracted from petroleum sources such as plastic and plants. To expand their respective foothold on business revenue petroleum pitch market players have introduced carbon-based products that offer higher thermal resistance and density. Such alternatives are lighter than sintered metals and other organic materials and therefore are in higher demand.

Expanding construction activities in nations with emerging economies like China and India will also contribute to the growth of the petroleum pitch market. Government initiatives to enhance infrastructure in these countries especially the construction of roads will create a considerable growth scope for the petroleum pitch market in the region.

Petroleum pitch is also the base material for the manufacturing of carbon fiber-reinforced ceramics which is crucial in several engineering applications. Materials that are lightweight and have high densities and thermal stability are in greater demand in industries like automobiles, aircraft, and machinery has positively impacted the carbon fiber-based materials market which has in turn augmented the growth of the petroleum pitch market as well.
