전기 접점 및 접점재료 : 세계 시장 점유율과 순위, 총판매량 및 수요 예측(2025-2031년)

The global market for Electrical Contacts and Contacts Materials was estimated to be worth US$ 5359 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 7618 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 4.6% during the forecast period 2025-2031.

This report provides a comprehensive assessment of recent tariff adjustments and international strategic countermeasures on Electrical Contacts and Contacts Materials cross-border industrial footprints, capital allocation patterns, regional economic interdependencies, and supply chain reconfigurations.

Electrical contact materials are critical components used in electrical equipment (such as switches, relays, contactors, circuit breakers, etc.) to control the opening and closing of circuits. Their performance directly impacts the reliability, lifespan, and safety of the equipment. The materials must meet the following core requirements:

High electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity: Reduce heat loss during current flow to prevent contact overheating;

Arc resistance and wear resistance: Resist high-temperature arc erosion (arc temperatures can reach 10,000-20,000°C) during circuit disconnection and reduce mechanical wear;

Chemical stability: Prevent environmental corrosion such as oxidation and sulfidation from causing an increase in contact resistance;

Anti-welding capability: Prevent contact points from sticking together under high current impacts to ensure safe disconnection.

Material Technology Upgrades

Environmentally Friendly Alternative Materials: Silver cadmium oxide (AgCdO) is gradually being replaced by silver tin oxide (AgSnO2) and silver zinc oxide (AgZnO) due to its heavy metal content. The latter two materials offer superior resistance to fusion welding and comply with the EU RoHS Directive.

High-Temperature High-Performance Materials: CuW70 tungsten-copper alloy (70% W-30% Cu) boasts ultra-high arc resistance (10 times that of pure copper) and high thermal conductivity (180W/(m*K)), making it a core material for ultra-high-voltage circuit breakers and high-speed rail pantographs;

Nanotechnology applications: Ultra-fine silver powder and nano-silver wires enhance contact conductivity and wear resistance. For example, nano-silver contacts in power equipment can improve system efficiency by 10%.

China accounted for the largest sales share of the Electrical Contacts and Contacts market in 2023. The region is characterized by the presence of a large number of service providers.
