Global Nanocomposites Market Analysis By Product (Carbon Nanotubes, Nanoclay, Metal/Metal Oxides, Ceramics, Others), By Application (Packaging, Automotive, Electronics & Electrical, Aviation, Energy, Construction, Military, Others) And Segment Forecasts To 2022
The global nanocomposites market size is expected to reach USD 7.48 billion by 2022, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Growing demand for nanocomposites in the automobile industry, increased application of nanocomposites in building and construction, high volume consumption in electronics and semiconductors are some of the major factors that have been driving the market. However, the high cost of materials and technology to manufacture them along with the environmental impact of certain materials used in nanocomposites manufacturing are holding back the market.
Nanocomposites usually comprise of a strengthening layer/layers of various materials such as clay, plastics, glass, carbon nanotubes, graphene and others. The binder material used is usually a polymeric resin (eg: epoxy) and this binding matrix holds the materials together to impart strength and higher toughness once the composite system has cured.
The nanocomposites market uses materials such as metals and metallic nanoparticles, polymers, nano-sized clay particles, carbon derivatives such as carbon nanotubes and graphene and other nanoparticles. These materials can be sourced from raw material manufacturers in all the regions globally. Major raw material manufacturers have their manufacturing bases in Europe and North America and usually distribute their materials through local suppliers in various regions around the world.
Further key findings from the report suggest:
Metal/Metal oxides demand was 17.6 kilo tons in 2014. Metal/metal oxides are extensively used in manufacturing electronic parts and semiconductors.
