Production Innovations and Expanding Applications
Drive Demand for Advanced Ceramics, According to a New Report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.
GIA launches comprehensive
analysis of industry segments, trends, growth drivers, market share, size and demand
forecasts on the global Advanced Ceramics market. The global market for Advanced Ceramics is projected
to reach US$ 79.7 billion by 2022, driven
by technological advancements and expanding application markets.
Advanced
ceramics, also known as technical ceramics, high-tech ceramics, and
high-performance ceramics represent one of present day’s most alluring
materials. These ceramics, characterized by superior biological, chemical,
electrical and physical properties mainly find use in applications where
improved performance, ballistic protection, environmental protection, energy
efficiency and lower operating costs are desired. Demand continues to be
dictated by the manufacturing sector as the materials are widely used in the production
of industrial machinery, motor vehicles,
electrical equipment, aircrafts and electronic components, among others.
The market is also set to benefit from the emergence of new end-use applications
supported by growing awareness of wide ranging benefits such as corrosion
resistance, thermal resistance, and high mechanical strength, among others. New
opportunities in the market will be guided by technological advancements and
innovations enabling the materials to compete efficiently with conventional alternatives
in the market.
Monolithic ceramics form the largest market segment with electronic and electric products
representing the major end-use markets. The growing trend of miniaturization of
electronic components continues to fuel new opportunities in the market. Use of
monolithic ceramics as catalyst supports is expected to be driven by the growth
in motor vehicle production. Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMCs) will witness strong demand,
given their capability to retain temperature stability, and offer superior
stiffness and fracture toughness. The market segment will continue to benefit
from the growing use of CMCs in high temperature and corrosion applications. Given
the growing focus on fuel efficiency and lighter components, CMCs are being
developed for aircraft jet engines. Strong demand for piezoelectric
devices due to trends such as industry automation, consumer demand for advanced
electronic devices is expected to drive the market for piezoceramics. Other
growth avenues for piezoceramics include medical electronics, and sensors. Smart
ceramics and bioceramics are especially expected to witness ample opportunities
for growth in the medical technology field.
As stated by the new
market research report on Advanced Ceramics, Japan represents the
largest market worldwide. Asia-Pacific is forecast to emerge as the fastest
growing market with a CAGR of 7.4% over the analysis period, led by rapid
industrialization and the ensuing expansion of the manufacturing sector, steady
automobile production trends, and improved consumer spending in countries such
as India and China.
