纳米复合材料市场Nanocomposites to 2010
Abstract
US nanocomposites market to reach 344 million pounds by 2010
Although the hype surrounding polymer nanocomposites has been in full-throttle for nearly a decade, so far the market for these new materials has not played out as well. However, as commercial interest has moved beyond pilot programs and taken hold in applications such as motor vehicle parts and packaging, it appears that
nanocomposites are finally ready for a market breakthrough. By 2010,
nanocomposites demand will approach 350 million pounds, rising to over seven billion pounds by the end of the next decade, with a value of $14.7 billion. Demand growth will be fueled by declining prices of nanomaterials and composites, as
production levels increase and technical issues in the dispersion of nano-additives in the compounds are overcome.
Thermoset types to grow the fastest
While nearly all current demand is in thermoplastic resins, nanocomposites based on thermosets will grow to over 20 percent of total demand by 2020. Over the near term, demand growth will be fastest in higher-priced resins such as engineered plastics and thermoplastic elastomers, as much of the initial demand for nanocomposites will be in higher-end applications. Eventually, however, nanocomposites based on commodity plastics, such as polypropylene, polyethylene, PVC and polyester will dominate the market。
Construction to emerge as key nanocomposites market
Packaging and motor vehicles, two early key markets for nanocomposites, will remain important through the end of the next decade, accounting for over 40 percent of demand in 2020. However, construction will emerge as a significant market, as
nanocomposites begin to replace fiber-reinforced plastics in a number of applications. Additionally, nanotube-based composites will penetrate a sizable portion of the electrical and electronics market as a substitute for other conductive materials. Clays, nanotubes to surpass carbon black as top material
In 2005, almost all nanomaterial demand in composites was carbon black for conductive applications. However, as material and production costs of clay-based nanocomposites fall, clays will rise to account for over half of all nanomaterials demand by in 2020. Similarly, a decline in price will enable the rapid
commercialization of carbon nanotubes, which will eventually gain a large share of the nanocomposite materials market in value terms.
Study coverage
This new Freedonia industry study, Nanocomposites, presents historical US demand data (2000, 2005) plus forecasts to 2010, 2015 and 2020 by nanocomposite product, market and nanomaterial. The study also considers market environment trends and indicators, profiles major companies active in the US nanocomposites industry and evaluates their market share.
