Global Advanced Materials Market: Industrial Progress Offers Lucrative Opportunities, Observes TMR

Transparency Market Research states that the degree of competition in the global advanced materials market is relatively insubstantial. However, the global market is on the cusp of a revolution as several players are making big investments in developing state-of-art advanced materials to suit the modern needs of industries across the globe. 3M Advanced Materials held a leading share in the global market in 2015 of about 70%. The company’s dominance was a result of its wide product offerings and proprietary technologies it has been using for product development.

According to the research report, the global advanced materials market is expected to be worth US$102.48 bn by 2024 as compared to US$42.76 bn in 2015. During the forecast years of 2016 and 2024, the global advanced materials market is expected to progress at a CAGR of 10.4%.
North America Paces Ahead with CAGR of 9.1% during Forecast Period
Advanced materials are extensively being used in areas such as medical devices, automotive, electrical and electronics, power, and industrial amongst others. Out of these, the automotive segment is expected to dominate the global market in the coming years. This demand will be due to the increasing requirement for high-strength and lightweight components in the aerospace industry. The analysts state that the aerospace segment will surge at a CAGR of 10.8% during the forecast period in terms of revenue. Geographically, the market is segmented into North America, Latin America, the Middle East and Africa, Europe, and Asia Pacific. The report suggests that North America show a remarkable CAGR of 9.1% during the forecast period. However, this regional market is expected to mature in the coming years, giving emerging economies such as Asia Pacific and the Middle East and Africa a chance to flourish in the global market.
Need for Improved Aerospace Components Shifts Preference toward Advanced Materials
The booming development of sectors such as electrical and electronics and aerospace have been the driving factors behind the growth of the global advanced materials market. These materials have been in a great demand in these segments as they deliver better performance, strength, and durability. Improvement in the development and design of these materials has also improved their uptake in the past few years. Over the years, the extensive and exhaustive research and development have rendered these materials with high endurance to handle the amount of fatigue, abrasion, and stiffness. For the same reasons, composite materials are being adopted in manufacturing aerospace structures.
The market is also expected to be driven by the growing demand for electrical and electronics, which is slated to be characterized by miniaturization in the coming years. The adoption of ceramics will be significantly high in this segment as well as in medical equipment manufacturing. The automobile industry is also expected to be another leading end user of advanced materials due to the benefits these materials offer in improving the performance of vehicles. The growing prices of fuel and the increasing demand for efficient vehicles are expected to drive manufacturers to make vehicles that will be lighter in weight.
Price Difference between Advanced and Conventional Materials to Hinder Market Growth
The massive price difference between conventional materials and advanced materials is one of the key restraints in the global advanced materials market. Currently, carbon fiber reinforced polymers are used in industries such as aerospace, wind energy, and sports due to their excellent mechanical and thermal properties at high temperatures. Despite these advantages, the demand for carbon fiber is likely to suffer as its production is seven times more expensive than its conventional counterpart aluminum. The market could also be stifled by the high costs involved in manufacturing advanced ceramics, which demand controlled environment at a high temperature for achieving the desired result.

Oil and Gas Pipeline Leak Detection Equipment Market Driven by Stringent Government Regulations

Although renewable resources of energy have gained substantial popularity in the recent past, there is no foreseeable limitation to the escalating demand for oil and gas, with the growing population and rapid urbanization. Consequently, the demand in the global market for oil and gas pipeline leak detection equipment is projected for a robust CAGR of 6.8% during the forecast period of 2016 to 2024, according to a recent report by Transparency Market Research (TMR). As per the estimations of the TMR report, the global oil and gas pipeline leak detection equipment market will be worth US$3.65 bn by the end of 2024, significantly up from its evaluated valuation of US$2.02 bn in 2015. Some of the key factors augmenting the demand in the oil and gas pipeline leak detection equipment market are: development and expansion of existing pipelines and construction of new pipelines, increasing incidents of oil and gas leakages in pipeline and storage tanks at production facilities, and

Welding Products Market Growth in Wind Power Sector to Create Opportunities, TMR

The global welding products market is moderately fragmented with the key players such as Lincoln Electric, ESAB, and ITW leading in the market. These three players accounted for a collective share of 30% in 2013, states a new report by Transparency Market Research (TMR). This market is capital intensive and thus, local vendors find it difficult to compete with the larger players. Local players are unable to compete with large players on the basis of quality, services, functionalities, and features. Thus, these small players are entering into the market by introducing products that are low in price. Some of the players operating in the welding products market are: Voestalpine AG, Sonics & Materials Inc., Fronius International GmbH, Rofin-Sinar Technologies Inc., Arcon Welding, Bohler, Panasonic, Daihen Corp, and OBARA Co. In order to increase their production capacities and focus on innovations, companies are adopting the strategy of merging or acquiring other players. Acco

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
