Microspheres Market to Account for US$7.77 bn by 2023, Composites and Medical Technology Represent Key Applications

Transparency Market Research has published a new report titled “Microspheres Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast 2015 - 2023”. According to the report, the global microspheres market was valued at US$ 2.72 Bn in 2014 and is anticipated to reach US$ 7.77 Bn in 2023, expanding at a CAGR of 12.4% between 2015 and 2023.
Microspheres are small spherical particles having size (diameter) from 1 to 1000 µm. These microstructures particles have white powdery form. Microspheres are manufactured using different natural and synthetic materials such as glass, polymer, ceramic, fly ash, metals. Owing to the superior structural and mechanical properties, microspheres are majorly used as additives or fillers to reduce the density of a material.

On the basis of product type, microspheres market can be categorized into hollow microspheres and solid microspheres. Both the product types have comparable growth rate in the global market. On the basis of raw material, microspheres market can be segmented into glass microspheres, polymer microspheres, ceramic microspheres, fly ash microspheres, metallic microspheres, and others.
Glass microspheres accounted for the largest market by material in 2014. It held over 50% of the global microsphere market. In terms of application, microspheres market can be classified into composites, medical technology, life science & biotechnology, paints & coatings, cosmetics & personal care, oil & gas, automotive, aerospace, and others. Composites and medical technology are the largest applications for microspheres cumulatively accounting for over 50% of the market in 2014.
In terms of demand, North America held the largest share of the microspheres market in 2014 out of which U.S. accounted for the majority share. Huge investments in R&D by the key players in North America has led to increasing number of applications for microspheres, hence contributing to overall market growth. Asia Pacific is the fastest growing market for microspheres over the forecast period. Rapid growth in infrastructure, aerospace, and automotive industries in Asia Pacific is the major driver for growth of microspheres market. In terms of demand, microspheres market in Europe followed that of North America in 2014.
However, the Europe market is estimated to grow at a slower rate compared to North America and Asia Pacific. The upcoming construction projects in the developing economies of Asia Pacific is expected to drive the demand for microspheres in composites, paints & coatings, and aerospace industry.  Microspheres market in Latin America and Middle East & Africa is expected to rise at a moderate rate during the forecast period.
Few of the key players of the global microspheres market are 3M, Akzo Nobel N.V., Chase Corporation, Matsumoto Yushi-Seiyaku Co., Ltd, Luminex Corporation, Sigmund Lindner GmbH, MO-SCI, Cospheric LLC, Nanjing Jianzun Glass Microsphere Plant Co., Ltd., Dennert Poraver GmbH, Potters Industries LLC, and Momentive Performance Materials Inc.
The microspheres market has been segmented as follows:

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...

Virtual pipeline system market - Demand of cleaner energy alternatives, Trends 2025

Powered by the advancing concerns over renewability of energy sources has affected the natural gas industry positively. The transportation of oil and natural gas in a brisk, albeit safe manner has never been such an urgent requirement. With pipelines being the most common approach, they are the primary choice of supply of energy sources. Physical pipelines, being confined to specific geography, are not found to be effective in terms of unfeasible terrains or technically inaccessible areas. As a result, the virtual pipeline industry has been gaining recognition, and is slated to be one of the fastest growing markets in the upcoming years. According to a report published by Transparency Market Research (TMR), the global virtual pipeline industry is anticipated to witness a steady growth during the forecast period of 2017-2025. The industry opportunity is expected to be supported by the brisk acceleration of the demand of transportation of liquid energy resources. Industrial space...
