Aramid Fiber Market Demand Stimulated by Automotive and Protective Clothing Industries; Market to Hit US$ 5,099.1 million by 2023

Buoyed by growth in the automotive industry and an uptick in the demand for protective clothing, the global aramid fiber market is expected to report a high single-digit CAGR between 2015 and 2023, says a latest report by Transparency Market Research. 

The report, titled ‘Aramid Fiber Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast 2015 – 2023’ says that the valuation of the market was US$ 2,598.2 million as of 2014 and will rise to US$ 5,099.1 million by 2023.

This translates to a 7.8% CAGR from 2015 to 2023 for the global aramid fiber market.This synthetic polymer, which is obtained via a reaction between the amine group and arboxylic acid halide group, is widely applied in industrial products and operations. Automotive components, electrical components, protective clothing, and body armor are just a few examples of the applications of aramid fiber. 
The report segments the global aramid fiber market on the basis of product type, en-users, and geographic regions. Segmented thus, the aramid fiber market by products is classed into meta-aramid fiber and para-aramid fiber. The para-aramid fiber segment led the global aramid fiber market as it witnesses massive demand from industries such as automotive, defense, and aerospace. This factor plays a crucial role in making the para-aramid fiber segment the largest in the global aramid fiber market. With a market share of over 70%, the para-aramid fiber segment was not only the largest in 2014, but is also expected to remain the fastest-growing over the forecast period of this report.
Likewise, based on end-users, the following segments have been created: Automotive, aerospace and defense, electronics and telecommunications, electrical, and others. TMR analysts say that about 35% of all aramid fiber produced was consumed by the automotive segment in 2014, making this the largest end-user segment globally. The automotive segment will report a healthy growth rate over the report’s forecast period. However, in terms of rate of growth, the electrical end-use segment is expected to emerge as the fastest with an 8.3% CAGR from 2015 to 2023in revenue terms. The global aramid fiber market will continue to see a progressive increase in demand from the automotive and industrial protective clothing end-use industries. 
The global aramid fiber market is also studied from the geographical perspective by segmenting it into: North America, Europe, Latin America, Asia Pacific, and Middle East and Africa. Europe stood as the largest regional aramid fiber market in 2014 with a 35% share of the overall market. The prospects of the European aramid fiber market look promising as the demand for personal armor and protective clothing will keep the consumption of aramid fiber high. 
From the regional standpoint, the fastest growth in the global aramid fiber market will be reported by Asia Pacific through the report’s forecast period. In India and China, especially, aramid fiber is expected to be consumed in large volumes in automotive, construction, and electrical industries. Demand will also remain steady from ASEAN countries. The expansion of the aramid fiber market in North America is predicted to be striking over the next eight years as the U.S. moves a step closer to normalcy. Latin America will not disappoint, thanks to the rebounding automotive and construction industries – the two major end-users of aramid fiber. 
While Middle East and Africa will not demonstrate a marked improvement in the demand for aramid fiber, the market’s growth will be sustained largely by the oil and gas industry, which stirs up demand for protective clothing.Companies profiled in the aramid fiber market report are: E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company, Kolon Industries Inc., Teijin Aramid, Yantai Tayho Advanced Materials Co., Ltd, and HYOSUNG Corporation.

Superabrasives (Turning, Cutting, Buffing, Drilling, Boring, Grinding) Market Research Report 2025

An abrasive is a material which molds or provides finishing to a work piece through a process which includes buffing, grinding, cutting, as well as polishing. Abrasion typically depends on the difference in the hardness of the material and the abrasive (with the latter being the harder of the two). Unlike regular abrasion where any two solid materials that repeatedly rub against each other tend to wear away, superabrasives possess the kind of hardness that enables them to stay usable for a longer period of time. On the basis of hardness, the top two superabrasives include diamond and cubic boron nitride (CBN). Industrial diamonds used as superabrasives are exceptionally hard materials. However, they display several technological limitations. For instance, when a diamond comes in contact with a ferrous alloy such as steel or a nickel superalloy, the resulting formation of carbide leads to its abrasion. Also, a diamond-containing tool can only be used at moderate temperatures a...

Industrial Lubricants Market: Strong Demand Across Automotive Industry, Trends To 2025

Lubricants refer to the organic or inorganic material primarily being use to decrease friction between two surfaces in contact. Lubricants play a key role in several industries as well as in commercial and residential sectors. One of their most common uses is in the lubrication of bearings and gears, allowing for their easy movement at high speeds, without loss in energy, prevent excessive generation of heat, or most importantly, prevent damage that would be caused otherwise. Industrial lubricants are, therefore, essential in enhancing the overall efficiency of a machine that contains moving parts in contact with one another. The global industrial lubricants market is currently expanding at a solid growth rate, driven by several factors and spearheaded by the likes of BP, Total, Chevron Corporation, ExxonMobil, and Shell.

Rapid Prototyping Market - Rapidly Gaining Importance in Aerospace Sector, Research By 2024

Rapid prototyping is a technique in which the physical modeling of a design is done with the help of specialized machining technology. It was developed initially in the mid-1980s, the principle used in this technology is of solid modeling with the help of computer programs (i.e. CAD). Solid modeling makes use of computer aided-design (CAD) data to completely describe not just the external shape of parts or equipment, but its interior volume as well as the outside surfaces. The computer model is sliced into thin layers and the part of the product or commodity to be modelled or developed as per the requirement, is eventually fabricated by adding layers onto each other. Obtain Report Details @   http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/rapid-prototyping-market.html The primary benefit of the system is that almost any shape can be manufactured using computerized programs. Time and money savings vary from 50% to 90% compared to conventional systems. Types of rapid proto...
