Polyphenylene Sulfide Market Summary
The global polyphenylene sulfide market size was estimated at USD 1.67 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 3.56 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 8.7% from 2025 to 2033. The market is driven by growing use of PPS in high-voltage electrical components, where its reliability under thermal stress helps manufacturers improve product safety and extend component life.
Its compatibility with precision molding also allows producers to simplify assembly and reduce defect rates, supporting wider industrial adoption. Demand for polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) is shifting from niche industrial uses to high-volume applications in automotive electrification and advanced electronics. PPS is replacing metal and lower-performance plastics where thermal stability and chemical resistance are critical. This transition is driving higher-volume compound grades and film formats. Regional demand is strongest in Asia Pacific, led by China and India.
