The report projects healthy growth prospects for the market and states that the market will expand at a 12.0% CAGR between 2015 and 2023. At this pace, the market, which had a valuation of US$1.22 bn in 2014, will rise to US$3.37 bn by 2023.The report is titled “Nanoclay Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast 2015 - 2023” and is available on the company’s website for sale.

Nanoclays, which are mineral silicate nanoparticles, find application in a number of industries such as packaging, automotive, flame retardants, marine, and aerospace across a large number of application areas.The report states that the rising demand for nanoclay-based reinforced polymers, which lead to reduction in the weight of vehicles, in the automotive industry is the key factor that will drive the global nanoclay market over the report’s forecast period. Rising demand for nanoclay in a variety of industries in emerging markets in Asia Pacific and Eastern Europe is also expected to propel the global nanoclay market over the report’s forecast period.


However, the capital-intensive nature of the market is restricting the entry of new market players and is thus hindering the overall growth of the market to a certain extent. Nonetheless, the market features a rise in investment for research and development activities owing to the vast potential for the use of nanoclays in medical, agricultural, and other novel industrial applications. This is expected to lead to numerous growth avenues for the market over the report’s forecast period.The report segments the global nanoclay market on the basis of three criteria: product type, end use, and geography.

On the basis of product type, the market is segmented into kaolinite, smectite, and other types such as illite, vermiculite, etc. On the basis of end use, the market is segmented into packaging, paints and coatings, flame retardants, automotive, and other fields such as personal care, marine, and aerospace. On the basis of geography, the market is segmented into North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Middle East and Africa.

Of the key product types analyzed in the report, the segment of smectite held the largest share in the global market in terms of volume, an estimated 60%, in 2014, followed by kaolinite.Of the key end user segments analyzed in the report, the segment of packaging led the global nanoclay market and accounted for a 25% share in 2014. The segment is also expected to be the fastest growing segment over the report’s forecast period.

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...
