Silicon Carbide Fibers Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report by Phase (Amorphous and Crystalline), by Form (Continuous, Woven, and Other Forms), by Usage (Composite and Non- Composites), and by End-User Industry (Aerospace & Defense, Energy & Power, Industrial and Others) Forecast Period (2025-2035)

Industry Overview

Silicon carbide fibers market was valued at $825 million in 2024 and is projected to reach $7 billion by 2035, growing at a CAGR of 28.1% from 2025 to 2035. The SiC fiber industry growth is driven by the increasing SiC fiber application in the semiconductor, aerospace, and energy industries. Considering its exceptional qualities, which include high stiffness, significant tensile strength, exceptional chemical resistance, and little thermal expansion under harsh conditions, SiC fibers are ideal for the packaging of SiC sensors and electronics. In February 2024, the US Department of Energy's (DOE) Office of Electricity (OE) launched the American-Made Silicon Carbide (SiC) Packaging Prize. This $2.25 million contest invites competitors to propose, design, build, and test state-of-the-art SiC semiconductor packaging prototypes to enable these devices to work more effectively in high-voltage environments such as energy storage.

Market Dynamics

Advancements in Nuclear-Grade SiC Fibers

SiC fibers used in nuclear applications have different compositions and microstructures than regular SiC fibers that might be used in other industries. Typical SiC fibers and matrices used in nuclear applications are composed of polycrystalline beta-phase SiC with average grain sizes between tens and hundreds of nanometers. The first two generations of nuclear-grade SiC fibers (Generation I, Generation II, and Generation III) have insufficient irradiation resistance due to the presence of oxygen, excess carbon, and impurities such as SiC nano-crystallites. SiC-SiC composites are being explored for use in several advanced non-light water reactor ideas, such as lead-cooled fast reactors (LFRs), gas-cooled reactors (GCRs), and molten salt reactors (MSRs), mainly because of their high-temperature mechanical stability.

Increasing Expansion of Electric Vehicle and Renewable Energy Sectors

Silicon carbide fibers are in increasing demand in the electric vehicle and renewable energy market. SiC fibers are also used in the power electronics and batteries of EVs. These fibers charge faster and convert energy much more efficiently owing to their superior thermal conductivity and impressive resistance to very high-power densities. This incorporates solar and wind energy and includes SiC fibers as applications in developing the energy storage system and equipment designed for the delivery of very high-power transmissions. In addition, growth in sustainability, and demands from the sources seeking energy efficiency for this lightweight use efficiently performing aspects make both side requests grow higher accordingly.

Continuous SiC Fiber Segment to Lead the Market with the Largest Share

The market for continuous silicon carbide fibers is increasing owing to the exceptional properties of SiC fibers, such as high thermal stability, superior tensile strength, and excellent resistance against oxidation and corrosion. These kinds of fibers find more applications within advanced fields, particularly in aerospace, defense, and the energy sector, which is attributed to their durability and operation under extreme circumstances. The increasing demand for lightweight materials in the automotive and aviation industries is further driving the adoption of continuous SiC fibers.

Aerospace & Defense: A Key Segment in Market Growth

The growing need for lightweight materials such as SiC fibers, as opposed to extremely conventional metal alloys, is preferred in aerospace applications for their increased fuel efficiency and emission reduction. In addition, countries such as China, Germany, and the US have made investments in modernizing defense technologies and enhancing aircraft capabilities. SiC fibers are well suited for high-temperature applications including gas turbine engines and rocket propulsion systems owing to their excellent thermal stability and oxidation resistance. Future process development in manufacturing should minimize production costs while improving the performance properties of SiC fibers further increasing the applicability of SiC fibers in many areas. For instance, Specialty Materials offers SCS-Ultra silicon carbide fiber, a 1M psi tensile strength fiber that was developed to meet the most demanding applications for aerospace materials.

Regional Outlook

The global silicon carbide fibers market is further divided by geography, including North America (the US and Canada), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, Australia and New Zealand, ASEAN Countries, and the Rest of Asia-Pacific), Europe (the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Russia, and the Rest of Europe), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America).

Growing Investment in the Semiconductor Industry in Europe

Continuous innovations in SiC fiber applications and production techniques in Europe advance market size. Microelectronic business in Europe is gaining popularity, and investments in more efficient materials have contributed to a growing demand for this product in the semiconductor industry. According to SwissCore, in June 2023, a transnational large-scale initiative received funding for industrial technology research, allocating over $8.6 billion to microelectronics by the European Commission. This material of SiC fiber finds high-performance applications where there is high thermal resistance, lightweight.

North America Region Dominates the Market with Major Share

North America holds a significant share owing to the presence of silicon carbide fibers offering companies such as Advanced Ceramic Materials (ACM) Corp., SkySpring Nanomaterials, Inc., Specialty Materials Inc., and others. Factors that include the use of SiC fibers in several applications in the aerospace, defense, energy, and power sectors and technological advancements in production processes have grown common in North America. SiC fibers are widely used in the aerospace and defense industry owing to their excellent performance and low weight, which improves fuel economy and overall operational efficacy in military and aircraft applications driving the growth of the market. Back in 2015, GE Aviation established a factory in Huntsville, Alabama, to mass-produce silicon carbide materials used to manufacture ceramic matrix composite components (CMCs) for jet engines and land-based gas turbines. GE Aviation invested more than $200 million to construct two factories on 100 acres in Huntsville. According to the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE), the US SiC market is expected to increase from $200 million in 2020 to over $600 million in 2030.

Market Players Outlook

The major companies operating in the global silicon carbide fibers market include Advanced Ceramic Materials (ACM) Corp., Nippon Carbon Co Ltd., SGL Carbon, and UBE Corp. among others. Market players are leveraging partnerships, collaborations, mergers and acquisition strategies for business expansion and innovative product development to maintain their market positioning.

Recent Development

• In July 2024, General Atomics Electromagnetic Systems (GA-EMS, San Diego, Calif., U.S.) was awarded a 3-year contract from the US DOE Office of Science to develop a scalable, cost-competitive path to manufacture SiC and SiC composite foam materials for advanced fusion power plants. GA-EMS' engineered Accident-Tolerant Fuel (ATF) rod cladding is a multilayered composite design comprising SiC fiber in a SiC matrix.
