The polyoxymethylene market is expected to grow due to the increase in demand for high-performance engineering plastics in automotive, industrial, and electrical applications. The trends of increasing metal replacement and the expansion of electric cars favor the use of polyoxymethylene.

By grade, the low friction segment accounted for the second-largest market share in 2024.

The low friction segment recorded the second-highest market share in 2024. This grade is used in the movement and sliding of components in large numbers. Automobiles, industrial machinery, and consumer appliances are among the industries that use low friction polyoxymethylene gears, bearings, bushings, and sliders to minimize wear and noise. This grade enhances the efficiency and service life of the components without external lubrication.

By processing technique, the extrusion segment accounted for the second-largest market share in 2024.

The extrusion segment had the second-largest share of the overall polyoxymethylene market in 2024. Extrusion is widely used to manufacture rods or sheets, pipes, and profiles of similar sizes. Cost efficiency and the ability to work around-the-clock make it popular in industrial applications.

By type, the homopolymer segment accounted for the second-largest market share in 2024.

The homopolymer segment had the second-largest share of the polyoxymethylene market in 2024. Homopolymers are more rigid, stronger, and have greater fatigue tolerance than copolymers. These characteristics render them applicable in precision parts in which high mechanical performance is needed.

Europe accounted for the second-largest share of the polyoxymethylene market in 2024

Europe accounted for the second-highest market share in 2024. The market in the region is driven by its strong automotive and industrial manufacturing capabilities. There is significant incorporation of engineering plastics in precision components to meet high-quality requirements. Constant emphasis on lightweighting and sustainability also promotes polyoxymethylene consumption.

Wenige Monate vor der Landtagswahl in Sachsen-Anhalt hat der frühere Ministerpräsident Reiner Haseloff (CDU) in der ZDF-Sendung „Markus Lanz“ eindringlich vor den Folgen eines starken AfD-Ergebnisses gewarnt. Mit Blick auf die Abstimmung am 6. September sagte der 71-Jährige: „Es geht um alles. Es geht um dieses Land, unser Land, unsere Demokratie – oder ein anderes Land.“ Aktuelle Umfragen sehen die AfD in Sachsen-Anhalt bei bis zu 39 Prozent und damit als mögliche stärkste Kraft. Haseloff kandidiert nicht erneut; er hatte seine Amtsgeschäfte Ende Januar an den bisherigen Wirtschaftsminister Sven Schulze (CDU) übergeben.

Trotz der hohen Werte für die AfD zeigte sich Haseloff überzeugt, dass die Partei keine eigene Regierungsmehrheit erreichen werde. „Ich bin mir ziemlich sicher, dass in diesem Lande keine absolute Mehrheit für die AfD hinzubekommen ist“, sagte er. Die aktuellen Umfrageergebnisse führt der CDU-Politiker vor allem auf zwei Faktoren zurück: die wirtschaftliche Entwicklung sowie die Debatten rund um Migration. Diese beiden Themenfelder seien aus seiner Sicht entscheidend für die Stimmungslage im Land und trieben den Zuspruch zur AfD.

Im Gespräch mit Moderator Markus Lanz kritisierte Haseloff insbesondere den Einfluss, den die AfD bereits heute auf die Regierungsbildung in den Ländern habe. „Die AfD bestimmt – bis auf Schleswig-Holstein – in allen Parlamenten, wer regieren kann! Das kann doch nicht sein, dass diese Partei alle Konstellationen in dieser Bundesrepublik Deutschland auf Länder- und auf der Bundesebene bestimmt! Wo sind wir denn hingekommen?“, sagte er. Lanz entgegnete darauf trocken: „Herr Haseloff, man nennt das Demokratie.“ Haseloff beharrte gleichwohl auf seiner Sicht, wonach die etablierten Parteien stärker eigene Lösungsangebote machen müssten.

Als politische Konsequenz forderte der Ex-Ministerpräsident, die in der Bevölkerung besonders präsenten Themen nicht der AfD zu überlassen. „Deswegen müssen wir denen die Themen wegnehmen und die Themen lösen!“, sagte Haseloff. Eine explizite Aussage zu möglichen Koalitionen nach der Wahl in Magdeburg vermied er, machte aber deutlich, dass sein „erstes Ziel“ sei, eine Regierungsbeteiligung der AfD und eine absolute Mehrheit der Partei zu verhindern. In der Runde, zu der auch Journalistin Anne Hähnig („Zeit“) und Wirtschaftsexpertin Ulrike Herrmann gehörten, spannte Haseloff den Bogen bis zur Weimarer Republik und zeichnete die Lage in Sachsen-Anhalt als Testfall dafür, wie stabil das politische System mit einem anhaltend starken AfD-Einfluss umgehen kann.
