Global Ultra-low Alpha Metal Market: Directives Banning Usage of Hazardous Metals Spike Demand, notes TMR

Transparency Market Research states that the global ultra-low alpha (ULA) metal market is facing moderate competition. The leading players operating in the global market are Honeywell International Inc., Indium Corporation, Pure Technologies, and DUKSAN Hi-Metal Co., Ltd. Wide product portfolio of these companies has helped them gain an edge over the others in the coming years. The booming aviation and automotive industries are expected to offer players in the global market ample opportunities to grow in the coming years. Thus, several players are steering the development of their products to suit the requirements of these industries.

According to the research report, the global ultra-low alpha metal market is expected to be worth US$4.72 mn by the end of 2024 from US$2.53 in 2015. Between the forecast years of 2016 and 2024, the global market is expected to surge at a CAGR of 7.30%.
Asia Pacific Leads the Pack with Flourishing Electrical and Electronics Industry
In terms of geography, the global ultra-low alpha metal market is segmented into North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Middle East and Africa. Of all these regions, Asia Pacific is expected to lead the global market as it is poised to acquire a share of 63.81% by 2024. The phenomenal contribution of Asia Pacific to the soaring revenue of the global ultra-low alpha metal market will be due to its flourishing electrical and electronics industry. The usage of lead-free alloys is expected to drive the demand for ultra-low alpha tin in Asia Pacific throughout the forecast period.
The products available in the global market are ULA tin, ULA tin alloys, ULA lead alloys, and ULA lead-free alloys. The report indicates that ULA lead-free alloys segment held a dominant share in the global market in 2015 due to its widening applications. By the end of 2024, this segment is expected to acquire a share of 41.8% in the overall market, which will be larger than the rest. The demand for ULA lead-free alloys is expected to grow against the backdrop of restrictions pertaining to the usage of heavy meals in electronic products.
Preference for Safer Alloys Augments Demand for ULA Metals
The stern rules such as Restriction on Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive that are dissuading the usage of hazardous substances in several electric and electronic equipment has augmented the demand for the ultra-low alpha metal in recent years. The European Union was the first region to accept this directive in 2003, while the world followed suit with a few changes in a few countries. Such directives have coaxed electronic equipment manufacturers to reduce the usage of hazardous materials and replace it with ultra-low alpha metals. Subsequently, it has augmented the demand for alternate alloys that contain lead for the purpose of soldering. Several alloys with silver are also being preferred for soldering despite their expensive pricing as they offer improved process results.
Fluctuating Prices of Raw Materials to Hamper Sales
The fluctuating prices of raw materials that eventually impact the cost of alloys is expected to hamper the growth of the market. Furthermore, the volatile situation of supply and demand is also expected to restrain the market from achieving its true potential. The demand for the ultra-low alpha metal is determined by exceptionally specific demands of consumers. Therefore, the changing patterns of consumer demands are expected to have a direct impact on the global market.
The global ultra-low alpha metal 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

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
