Global 5G Substrate Materials Market

One of the main hardware required for 5G end-user applications is an active antenna system. These active antenna systems enable the concept of remote radio head by integrating the antenna and meet 5G challenges of enhanced capacities using space diversity and localized beams via massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology. These MIMOs are used in 5G base stations and smartphones. These antennas are made of printed circuit boards PCB that use various substrate materials such as polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), polyimide (PI), liquid crystal polymer (LCP), ceramics, and glass. These materials are used as they have a low dielectric constant (Dk), low dissipation factor (Df), high moisture absorption, and low manufacturing costs.

Global 5G Substrate Materials Industry Overview

The global 5G substrate materials market is expected to reach $1,624.3 million by 2031, with a CAGR of 24.1% during the forecast period 2021-2031. The growth in the market is expected to be driven mainly by growing investments toward the adoption and deployment of 5G communication across the globe.
