by Advanced ceramics are driving innovations across multiple industries due to their unique properties like high strength, corrosion and heat resistance, and electrical insulation. Advanced ceramics such as aluminum oxides, titanium carbides, and silicon nitrides find wide usage in medical implants, electronics, energy, and automotive owing to their superior performance over traditional materials. Ceramic parts allow miniaturization of devices while withstanding high temperatures and voltages. Ceramic insulators enable powering today’s cutting-edge electronic devices. Ceramic filters help purify water and air. Ceramic armor protects military assets and personnel.
The global Advanced Ceramics Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 91617.4 Mn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 10% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
Market key trends:
One of the major trends gaining traction in the advanced ceramics market is the development of ceramic matrix composites (CMCs). CMCs combine fibers such as silicon carbide or carbon with ceramic matrices like aluminum oxide or silicon carbide to provide enhanced properties over monolithic ceramics. The fiber reinforcement allows CMCs to tolerate higher stresses and withstand cracks better than conventional ceramics. CMCs open up new applications for ceramics in harsh, high-temperature environments encountered in industries such as aerospace, energy, transportation and metals processing. Continuous advancements in CMC fabrication techniques coupled with their improved strength-to-weight ratios compared to metals have boosted their adoption. This is expected to drive the demand for advanced ceramics during the forecast period.
