Sapphire Material to Offer Attractive Opportunities
- The sapphire segment accounted for a major share of the global transparent ceramics market in It is estimated to be a highly attractive segment during the forecast period. Sapphire-based transparent ceramics are used in a broad range of end-use industries such as optoelectronics, aerospace & defense, and security.
- Sapphire is a single-crystal aluminum oxide (Al2O3), which is primarily used when standard glass and technical ceramics cannot meet the demand of certain applications in terms of high transparency. It possesses exceptional optical properties such as high ultraviolet and infrared optical characteristics, high resistance to wear and scratches, high thermal conductivity, and high co-efficiency of linear expansion.
- Single-crystal aluminum oxide is an excellent ceramic oxide with a wide range of applications, including adsorbents, catalysts, microelectronics, chemicals, etc. It is applied in aerospace and other high-technology fields also.
High Cost of Transparent Ceramics Likely to Hamper Market
- Transparent ceramics require machining to obtain components with a specific shape and size, before they are employed in end-use industries, which entails high capital costs. This factor is hampering the global transparent ceramics market. Transparent ceramics are generally used in all major applications such as optics, aerospace, spacecraft, chemical, mechanical, and consumer products.
- The high cost of transparent ceramics is likely to restrain the market in the near future. Furthermore, the high prices of raw materials raise the cost of these ceramics, thereby increasing the prices of end products. Thus, end-use industries are compelled to seek low-cost substitutes for these raw materials.
Asia Pacific a Prominent Transparent Ceramics Market
- Asia Pacific accounted for a prominent share of the global transparent ceramics market. The region is expected to offer immense growth opportunities to the transparent ceramics market during the forecast period. Strong industrial growth is projected to fuel the demand for transparent ceramics in different applications in electrical & electronics (E&E) and healthcare industries during the forecast period. Additionally, growth of the military & defense sector in Asia Pacific led by the rise in government investments in the sector fuels the transparent ceramics market in the region.
- China accounts for a substantial share of the transparent ceramics market in Asia Pacific, owing to the increased demand for defense equipment in the country over the last few years. The Government in China supports advances in the country’s technological production capabilities. China’s National Development and Reform Commission is in process of supervising a multi-trillion-dollar nationwide project to industrialize the underdeveloped Western provinces of the country. This project would support the continuation of high growth rates of automotive and electronics industries in the country. This, in turn, is projected to drive the transparent ceramics market in China during the forecast period.
- Countries of ASEAN are investing highly and making significant advances in research on and commercialization of ceramic products. According to the U.S.–ASEAN Business Council, the sub-region is expected to become the fourth-largest economy in the world after China, India, and the U.S. by 2050,surpassing the European Union and Japan.
