Polyetheretherketone Market: Rising Trend of Miniaturizing Electrical Components Creating Lucrative Opportunities : TMR

In 2015, Victrex plc held the dominant share of 66.3% in the global polyetheretherketone (PEEK) market. This defined the highly consolidated vendor landscape of the market. Solvay S.A., which emerged as the second lead in the same here was far behind occupying a little over 14% of the overall market. Among other companies making their presence felt in the overall polyetheretherketone market, Evonik Industries and Panjin Zhongrun High Performance Engineering Plastic Co., Ltd have a stronger foothold, finds Transparency Market Research (TMR) in a new report.

“On account of being technologically sensitive, the PEEK market caters to niche applications,” observed the TMR report’s author. This is one of the key reasons why the prime focus of producers is on constantly upgrading their product portfolios. Besides this, increasing production capacities and the development of novel products are a few strategies sought by the market players. 
According to TMR, the global polyetheretherketone market, which was valued at US$451.5 mn in 2015, is expected to reach US$832.6 mn by the end of 2024. If the figures hold true, the global PEEK market will exhibit a CAGR of 7.1% between 2016 and 2024. Regionally, North America and Europe led the overall market in 2015 with a cumulative share of 60.5%. By application, the electrical and electronics segment held the dominant share of 27.6% in the market in 2015. The trend of miniaturizing electronic devices necessitates the use of plastic at a very high temperature. This is likely to drive PEEK usage in the sector
Excellent Mechanical Properties of PEEK to Fuel its Demand 
“In the last few years, the usage of PEEK has increased at a tremendous pace primarily due its exceptional mechanical properties,” said a lead TMR analyst. PEEK has a much lower density than metals. Design engineers are thus increasingly using PEEK as a popular substitute for metals in diverse applications. For instance, compelled by stringent emission control norms automobile manufacturers are compelled to shift towards using lightweight materials. Spurred by this, the global polyetheretherketone market is forecast to exhibit strong growth during the course of the forecast period. 
In addition, with the trend of miniaturizing electrical items gaining pace, the market is likely to witness lucrative growth opportunities. PEEK maintains its electrical performances even at high frequencies and possesses high strength at elevated temperatures. These mechanical properties make it ideal for use in the miniaturization of electrical components. Besides this, PEEK manufacturers are hoping to gain significantly from the rising use of PEEK in the medical industry. PEEK implants are bone-friendly and offer greater biocompatibility, which make them more convenient than metal implants.

High Cost of PEEK Grades Considered Major Restraint to Growth 
On the downside, a large number of companies refrain from using a few grades of PEEK, which are priced higher than other high performance plastics. PEEK is often expensive due to the high cost of monomer and advanced technological requirements. This factor is restraining the market’s trajectory to an extent. In addition, technological challenges in molding PEEK pose threat to the market. Stringent regulatory barriers on the use of PEEK across various application will also create bottlenecks for the global PEEK market, thereby adversely affecting its prospects for growth. 
Nevertheless, with development of new applications and rising opportunities in the emerging nations, PEEK manufacturers can expect to witness strong growth in the forthcoming years. 
The report segments the global polyetheretherketone market as:

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...
