Thermal Interface Materials with efficient heat transferring function and enhance heat conductivity: Tremendous Growth in the IT sector: Asia Pacific Market Forecast 2015 - 2023

Thermal interface materials (TIM) are materials with high thermal conductivity, which act as an interface between the heat sink and the heat source. The heat sink removes heat from heat source with the help of thermal interface materials. The process involves removal of heat and release into the ambient environment by replacing the thermally insulating air between two surfaces. Thermal interface materials possess some key properties, such as high thermal conductivity, minimum thickness, and no leakage from the interface, which help them to deliver high thermal performance. Moreover, they add mechanical strength to the interface between the heat sink and heat source.

Thermal interface materials remove the interstitial air or gap from the junction which acts as an insulator. They increase the conduction of heat between the surfaces in various electronic equipments. In order to eliminate overheating in electronic equipment, they increase the conductivity of heat between a hot component and heat spreader, thus efficiently releasing the heat to a large surface area. Thermal interface materials (TIM) can be found in the form of: thermal grease, phase change materials, soft metal foils, elastomeric pads, adhesives, thermal gels, pastes and liquids, graphite, solder, liquid metals, etc.
Thermal interface materials have potential application in the electronics industry due to their efficient heat transferring function. In telecommunication and information technology applications, thermal interface materials have extensive use for cooling purposes. They are widely used to enhance heat conductivity in computer components such as CPU, graphic cards, hard disks, and chipsets. From such heat sensitive computer components, heat is dispersed by thermal interface materials in the heat sink coolers. Thermal interface materials are also used in LED lights used in the automotive industry to get brighter light with energy efficiency.
Thermal interface materials have significant application in the transportation industry. Use of electronic vehicles in transportation requires an efficient thermal management system, which promotes wide use of thermal interface materials. Advanced medical instruments and medical lasers also use the heat management solution provided by thermal interface materials. In addition to this, industrial computing, defense and aerospace devices, consumer electronics, and wireless networking are the major application segments for thermal interface materials.
The global market for thermal interface materials is dominated by North America, followed by Asia Pacific. The huge growth of telecommunication and information technology in North America has generated a healthy market for thermal interface materials. In the next few years, a growing trend is anticipated to continue. Asia Pacific has witnessed tremendous growth in the information technology and communication industry over the past few years, leading to a rising demand for thermal interface materials.
As a result of that a mature market has emerged in the developing countries such as China, Japan, South Korea, and India in recent years. With the enhancement of end-user industries, this region is expected to show excellent market growth over the forecast period. Europe is also a growing market for thermal interface materials with the third largest share in the global market. A rising market trend is predicted to continue over the next few years. The Middle East and Africa, and Latin America are emerging markets in TIM with substantial industrial growth in recent years in these regions.
Demand for thermal interface materials is being driven largely by the requirement for faster computing. Increasing global awareness about energy efficient lighting systems is increasing the use of LED lights over conventional lights, which in turn is driving the use of thermal interface materials in market. Furthermore, advancement in the medical industry is supporting the rapid growth of the thermal interface materials market.
Some of the major players that manufacture thermal interface materials include Parker Chomerics, Indium Corporation, Dow Corning, Laird Technologies, Henkel AG & Co. KGaA, Honeywell International Inc., and Zalman Tech Co.

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 prototypi
