The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The market size of automotive airbag silicone is expected to grow to $724.06 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 17.92%. Airbags are made mandatory in front seats for vehicles and this factor is expected to drive the automotive airbag silicone market during the forecast period. Airbags are complex devices that work with a vehicle’s metal body and seatbelts to protect occupants and therefore it is made mandatory for vehicles to have airbags at least in front seats as occupants and driver seating in the first seats are at high risk of injury when there is any collision or accident. For instance, in India, vehicles manufactured on and after the 1st Day of April 2021, in the case of new models, and the 1st day of June 2021, in the case of existing models, shall be fitted with airbags for the person occupying the front seat, other than the driver. Thus, making airbags compulsory for front seats in vehicles is driving the market. Major players in the automotive airbag silicone market are Dow, Elkem Silicones, Shin-Etsu Chemical, Wacker Chemie AG, TORAY Industries, Toyobo, Zodiac, and Porcher Industries. The increasing development of active safety systems is expected to limit the growth of the automotive airbag silicone market. The active safety system in a car works to prevent an accident. These systems are always active while the car is in driving mode and works continuously to keep the occupants safe from getting into an accident. The active safety systems include automatic emergency braking (AEB), forward collision warning (FCW), active cruise control (ACC), lane departure warning (LDW), lane-keeping assist (LKA), blind-spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic alert (RCTA). According to Consumer Reports, in 2022, more than 47,000 Cr car owners were surveyed. 72% of the respondents were satisfied with Rear Cross Traffic Warning (RCTW), 64% were satisfied with Blind Spot Warning (BSW), 63% were satisfied with the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), and 59% were satisfied with the Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB). The increasing development of active safety systems has a negative impact on the automotive airbag silicone market. Innovative airbag design with silicone rubber fabric coatings and seam sealants is an emerging trend in the automotive airbag silicone market. Silicone rubber fabric coatings and seam sealants help airbag design integrity to enhance occupant impact protection and safety. For instance, Dow’s SILASTIC™ silicone engineered elastomers are proven, effective solutions for advanced airbag design. This innovative product meets industry and regulatory requirements for use on cut-and-sewn, seam-sealed (CSSS) airbags and one-piece-woven (OPW) airbags. It can be included in side curtain airbags, front-centre airbags, knee-bolster airbags, frontal airbags (driver and passenger) and side airbags.

The automotive lightweight material is engaged in the production of different lightweight materials for the manufacturing of automotive components such as carbon fiber, aluminum, and magnesium among others. Automotive lightweight materials are used in vehicles to decrease weight, increase speed, and improve fuel economy. The main types of materials in the automotive lightweight materials market are metal, composites, plastics, and elastomer. Metals such as high-strength steel, aluminum, magnesium, and titanium are used to make vehicles lighter and more efficient. Composites are made up of a high-performance fiber (such as carbon or glass) and a matrix material (epoxy polymer) that, when mixed, has superior properties to the individual materials. Plastics are used for added strength, flex, rigidity, fatigue resistance, shear strength, and heat resistance. Elastomers are polymers with high viscoelasticity which are used in the production of components that need to withstand extreme temperatures such as hoses, insulators, seals, bushes, engine mounts, and gaskets. The automotive lightweight materials are used for passenger vehicles, light commercial vehicles, and heavy commercial vehicles for manufacturing bodies in white, chassis and suspension, powertrain, closures, interiors, and other parts. The global automotive lightweight materials market is segmented - 1) By Material Type: Metals, Composites, Plastics, Elastomer 2) By Vehicle Type: Passenger Vehicle, Light Commercial Vehicle, Heavy Commercial Vehicle 3) By Application: Body In White, Chassis And Suspension, Powertrain, Closures, Interiors, Other Applications The global automotive lightweight materials market size will grow from $101.54 billion in 2022 to $116.44 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.7%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The market size of global automotive lightweight materials is expected to grow to $167.05 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 9.4%. The surge production of electric vehicles is expected to propel the growth of the automotive lightweight materials market over the coming years. Electric vehicles are automobiles that are powered entirely or partially by electricity. Electric vehicles have minimal operating expenses since they have fewer moving parts to maintain, and they are also very eco-friendly because they consume little or no fossil fuels (petrol or diesel). Lightweight materials such as carbon-fibre-reinforced plastic are used in modern electric vehicles, allowing them to run purely on electricity and avoid being classified as hybrids. For instance, according to the Economist Intelligence Unit (The EIU), electric vehicle sales are expected to increase from 2.5 million in 2020 to 3.4 million in 2021 According to a CNBC report published in May 2020, electric vehicle production is expected to rise to at least 1.3 million this year, with the possibility of reaching 1.5 million based on market conditions. Therefore, the increasing production of electric vehicles drives the growth of the automotive lightweight materials market. Major players in the automotive lightweight materials market are BASF SE, Covestro AG, LyondellBasell Industries Holdings B.V., Toray Industries Inc., ArcelorMittal, ThyssenKrupp AG, Novelis Inc., Alcoa Corporation, Stratasys Ltd., Owens Corning, Tata Steel, and POSCO. New product developments and compositions are gaining significant popularity in the automotive lightweight materials market. Key players in the automotive lightweight materials market are focusing on developing new and innovative products for the market using lightweight materials such as carbon fibre, and aluminium and replacing generic materials.
