The characteristics of aluminum alloys to offer high weight to strength ratios, corrosion resistance, and formability, among others, is expected to drive the market growth in the forecast period. Few advantages of aluminum alloys include high performance under cryogenic temperatures, less dense than steel but with similar strength, and does not rust.
Aluminum is an essential component for modern aircraft. The growing trend towards manufacturing lightweight aircraft would be causative of an increase in the market demand during the forecast period. Aluminum alloys are extensively deployed in aircraft fuselages and other engineering structures and compounds where lightweight and corrosion resistance are necessary.
A rapid increase in global passenger and cargo aircraft fleet, along with an increase in the number of passengers, is likely to propel market demand in the future. The passenger and freight traffic is estimated to increase at a modest rate in the upcoming years, and as a result would fuel the demand for aircraft. Increase in consumer preference for flight transportation in developing regions due to growing living standards, mainly in countries like China and India, the Middle East, and other Asia-Pacific region countries, is anticipated to boost the demand for aluminum alloys for production of aircraft.
Aerospace materials such as steel alloys, super alloys, titanium alloys, and composites may create hindrance in the growth of the market in the forecast period.
Further key findings from the report suggest
- The 2xxx series is held the largest market share in 2018 and is forecasted to maintain its market leadership with a growth rate of 3.4% in the forecast period.
- Aluminum alloy AA2024, is the most widely used alloy for aircraft, is a high-grade aluminum alloy and has excellent resistance to fatigue. It is used mostly in sheet forms such as for the wings and fuselage attributed to its high tensile strength of around 470 MPa.
