Kings Research today announced the release of its latest market intelligence study, “Global Spin on Carbon Market: Size, Share, Trends & Forecast 2024–2031.” The report provides a comprehensive analysis of the market’s trajectory, including forecasts, drivers, opportunities, and competitive dynamics.
According to Kings Research, the global Spin on Carbon Market was valued at USD 210.3 million in 2023 and is projected to grow to USD 1,796.8 million by 2031, at a CAGR of 30.83% during 2024–2031. Increasing demand for advanced semiconductor manufacturing processes, rising electronics production, and innovations in material performance are fueling the rapid growth of the spin on carbon market.
A specialized dielectric material called spin on carbon (SOC) is used as a liquid coating in the production of semiconductors, mostly for interlayer dielectric and gap filling applications. Benefits of SOC include improved mechanical qualities, cost effectiveness, and less complicated manufacture. SOC is turning into a vital enabling material for advanced electronics and packaging techniques as semiconductor nodes get smaller and the need for high-performance microchips increases.
Furthermore, the range of SOC applications is growing due to increased demand in sectors including data storage, automotive electronics, and consumer electronics. Manufacturers are adopting spin-on carbon to increase performance and reliability while lowering manufacturing costs due to the growing trend of integrated circuit downsizing and sophisticated packaging techniques.
Kings Research highlights the following growth drivers:
- Semiconductor Industry Expansion
The push toward smaller chip architectures and high-density packaging is increasing SOC adoption. The Semiconductor Industry Association projects global semiconductor sales to exceed $1 trillion by 2030, underscoring strong demand (Source: https://www.semiconductors.org/). This growth is fueled by rapid advancements in artificial intelligence, 5G connectivity, and the Internet of Things (IoT), which require smaller, faster, and more efficient chips.
- Advanced Material Innovation
Companies are developing SOC materials with improved mechanical strength, thermal stability, and lower dielectric constants. These enhancements improve microchip efficiency, reliability, and longevity, enabling semiconductors to perform under increasingly demanding operational conditions.
- Automotive Electronics Growth
Increasing adoption of electric vehicles (EVs), autonomous driving technologies, and advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) is driving demand for SOC in semiconductor packaging. SOC coatings improve thermal management, signal integrity, and durability of electronic components in EV powertrains, sensors, and control modules. Global sales of electric cars increased by more than 25% to reach 17 million in 2024 (Source: https://www.iea.org/reports/global-ev-outlook-2025/trends-in-electric-car-markets-2), further boosting SOC demand in the automotive sector
- Manufacturing Scalability
SOC is gaining preference due to its ability to simplify fabrication processes, improve yield rates, and reduce production costs for semiconductor manufacturers. The process eliminates multiple deposition steps, reduces chemical waste, and supports high-throughput manufacturing, making SOC a cost-effective solution for high-volume semiconductor production.
- Regional Demand Dynamics
North America currently dominates SOC consumption, supported by a robust semiconductor manufacturing infrastructure, advanced R&D capabilities, and strong investment in next-generation fabrication facilities. Meanwhile, Asia-Pacific is the fastest-growing region, driven by large-scale electronics production, the expansion of semiconductor foundries, and supportive government policies in countries such as China, Taiwan, and South Korea. The region’s growth is further accelerated by the rising demand for consumer electronics, mobile devices, and industrial automation solutions.
