Under the form segment, the continuous fiber segment accounted for the largest share in the global SiC fiber market. The cold bars/wire rods are basically the hot bars/wire rods that are further processed. The SiC continuous fiber are materials that are industrially available with a wide range of applications in the aerospace, weaponry and nuclear environments. The SiC continuous fiber has high corrosion and heat resistance and possesses high strength. The continuous SiC fibers are developed as reinforcement of ceramic matrix composites for the high-temperature structural applications. The continuous SiC fibers contain fine filaments of ultra-fine ß-SiC crystals that are responsible for the strong particle bonding of the fiber. The continuous SiC fiber is widely used in the nuclear environment due to its chemical stability, high toughness, relatively low neutron absorption and mature fabrication technology.
Silicon carbide fiber is popularly available in two forms: beta and alpha. The beta form of silicon carbide fiber was developed in 1990 and was made commercially available at high prices. However, they are increasingly replaced by the new alpha forms of SiC Fibers. They are known for their chemical, mechanical, and thermal properties along with attractive degradation-resistant and high-temperature reinforcing ceramic, which makes them an ideal material to be used in energy, transportation, aerospace, defense, industrial and nuclear applications. The demand for alpha-SiC fibers ceramic material is rising in comparison to βbeta-SiC fibers as they offer high tensile strength and durability, lightweight, higher thermal conductivity, better resistance to corrosion, and oxidation amongst others.
The market for global SiC fiber is concentrated with some very well-established players. Some of the key players in the global SiC fiber market include The demand for alpha-SiC Fibers ceramic material is rising in comparison to βbeta-SiC fibers as they offer high tensile strength and durability, lightweight, higher thermal conductivity, better resistance to corrosion, and oxidation among others.

Market Insights
Higher Temperature Stability in Comparison to Substitutes
The SiC fibers are considered as lightweight, high performing composite materials which have the properties of sustaining extreme pressure conditions and are, therefore, deployed in diversified industrial bases. With the advancement of technology and use of enhanced processes, the manufacturers have come up with enhanced form of polymer-derived SiC-polycrystalline fibers which offers resistance towards heat by up to 2000 ◦C. along with maintaining the maximum strength of the ~4 GPa. Moreover, such fibers have the capability to endure high-temperature conditions and are available in both alpha- and beta-SiC compositions. Owing to such properties, they are increasingly demanded in the aerospace and power generation industries. Unlike other metallic material or intermetallic materials, they are used in application dealing in extreme mechanical loads at high temperatures (up to 1900 K in the air).
