Market by Product Type, Application, and Regional Outlook | Forecast 2023-2030
Thermal interface materials (TIMs)
are essential substances used in electronics and industrial applications to
enhance the transfer of heat between surfaces. They come in various forms, such
as thermal greases, pads, tapes, phase change materials, and liquid metals
suited to specific applications. Moreover, TIMs facilitate the efficient
dissipation of heat generated by electronic components, preventing overheating
and ensuring device reliability.
According to Triton Market Research’s report, the Global Thermal Interface Materials Market is likely to grow with a CAGR of 10.17% over the forecast period 2023-2030. The market was valued at $2642.49 million in 2022 and is expected to reach a revenue of $5717.24 million by 2030.
MARKET PERFORMANCE – DRIVERS,
CHALLENGES, AND OPPORTUNITIES
The
market is driven by several factors, such as the increasing need for advanced
electronics, the growing LED market, advancing electrification in the
automotive sector, and the growing demand for seamless connectivity. The demand for thermal interface materials
(TIM) is driven by their role in effectively dissipating heat from GPUs and
power electronics. TIM allows for smaller package sizes and reduces the need
for larger cooling components. It is essential in power electronics due to
longer lifespans. Additionally, the growing global demand for GPUs, driven by
gaming, AR/VR, and AI development, is increasing the need for TIM. Furthermore,
the automotive sector’s expansion in key markets like China, Brazil, and others
is propelling demand for TIM, driven by increased urbanization and demand for
vehicles.
On
the other hand, determining optimal operational costs for end-users and
physical properties constraining performance have become a barrier to the
market’s growth. Thermally
conductive interface materials use ceramic fillers with superior thermal
conductivity compared to polymer or grease binders. Achieving higher thermal
conductivity requires more expensive fillers, leading to increased costs and
reduced physical properties. Choosing a thermal interface material involves
balancing thermal performance, cost, and specific application needs, but
physical limitations can restrict market growth.
Furthermore, surging commercial adoption of MMC and CMC materials and technological advancements create opportunities for the thermal interface materials market. The increased adoption of MMC and CMC in thermal management across various industries, driven by their strength, lightness, and superior thermal properties, is a notable development in the TIM market. Electronic equipment manufacturers are increasingly considering CMC as a TIM due to its enhanced thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance, and durability, which is expected to continue in the foreseeable future.
