The Polyetherimide (PEI) Market is projected to grow from USD 522 million in 2019 to USD 714 million by 2024, at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period. PEI is a high-performance polymer with both ether links and imide groups in its polymer chain. It is used in high-temperature applications where fast dissipation of heat is essential. Due to its creep resistance, low smoke emission, and flame resistance, the demand for PEI as a thermally conductive plastic has increased significantly. PEI, along with thermally conductive fillers, is a cost-effective solution to metals due to lesser manufacturing steps and joints. PEI is widely used as an alternative to metals in compact electronic gadgets, as it increases the performance of compact electronics by heat dissipation. In addition to the electronics industry, PEI is used in transportation, medical, consumer good, and industrial end-use industries.
