US DEMAND FOR HIGH-TEMPERATURE PLASTICS TO BE WORTH $3.1 BILLION BY 2017

摘要

US demand for high-temperature plastics will expand by 5.8% a year to be worth $3.1 billion by 2017, according to the latest report from Freedonia Inc. The market research company of Cleveland, Ohio, USA, says that this increase will be driven by the ongoing adoption of high-temperature plastics in place of more conventional materials such as metal, glass and other polymers in an expanding array of applications. Gains will be further supported by an improving economic outlook and rising consumer confidence, which will boost the output of durable goods such as electrical equipment, electronic products, machinery and transportation equipment.
