Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles Market - Value Chain and Forecast 2017-2025

For the last few years, research and development in the field of nanoparticles such as zinc oxide, TiO2, and graphite has gained momentum. Zinc oxide nanoparticles are referred to as semiconductor materials, due to their unique properties such as high binding energy and wide band gap. These materials possess antifungal, antibacterial, and UV-filtering properties. They are used in various fields such as material science, optics, bio-medicine, and electronics. They are widely employed in the building & construction industry as an additive to concrete and ceramics. They are used as catalysts in cosmetics such as calamine lotion and ointments to treat skin diseases; as coating agents in the paints & coatings industry, as additives in food products; and as filler materials in the manufacture of cigarettes. Zinc oxide nanoparticles are also employed in vulcanization of rubber for the manufacture of tires.

Based on processing technique, the global zinc oxide nanoparticles market has been categorized into spray pyrolysis method, precipitation method, hydrothermal method, micro-emulsion method, and sol gel method. Sol gel is one of the most popular processing techniques, followed by spray pyrolysis. Demand for these two techniques is expected to rise during the forecast period, due to cost-effectiveness and easy processability offered by them. Rising number of end-user industries such as automotive, pharmaceutical, and building & construction coupled with increased usage of zinc oxide nanoparticles as an additive or catalyst are factors expected to raise the demand for these nanoparticles during the forecast period.

Zinc oxide nanoparticles possess good conductivity, which aids in the removal of high amount of heat generated during churning motion of tires. In addition, these nanoparticles increase water-resistivity when employed during the cement manufacturing process. Owing to their antibacterial and antifungal properties, zinc oxide nanoparticles are increasingly used in the pharmaceutical industry for the manufacture of zinc pastes, zinc ointments, bandages, and adhesive tapes for wound and skin treatment.

Rising demand for various sensors such as bio-sensors, chemical sensors, gas sensors, and optoelectronic devices is expected to drive the global zinc oxide nanoparticles market in the near future. Furthermore, rising demand for UVA/B filters in sun protection and sunscreen cosmetics is leading to expansion of the market at a significant rate. However, toxicity associated with zinc oxide processability may hamper growth of the market in the near future. Progression of zinc oxide nanoparticles from the laboratory level to the industrial level is a major challenges for manufacturers. However, increasing investments in research & development, industrial collaborations, and government initiatives are some of the factors that would create ample opportunities for manufacturers in the next few years.

Geographically, the global zinc oxide nanoparticles market can be segmented into North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Middle East & Africa. North America leads the global market for zinc oxide nanoparticles, due to high investments in R&D activities in the region. Furthermore, rising demand for high-quality interior electronics, especially in the automotive industry, is likely to boost the market in the region during the forecast period. The markets in Asia Pacific and Europe are anticipated to expand significantly during the forecast period, due to rapid industrialization and urbanization in the two regions. Increasing disposable income in China, ASEAN, and India is expected to provide lucrative opportunities to zinc oxide manufacturers in Asia Pacific in the near future. Rising consumer awareness and increased purchasing power for high-quality cosmetics in Latin America and Middle East & Africa are factors driving the zinc oxide nanoparticles market in the two regions.

Key players operating in the global zinc oxide nanoparticles market are Advanced Nano Technologies Limited, Nanophase Technology Corporation, Hakusuitech Co., Ltd., Sakai Chemical, Showa Denko, and Weifang Longda Zinc Industry, Co., Ltd.

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

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

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
