The top three revenue contributing product segments are discussed below:
Global AMCs market: The properties of AMCs such as lightweight and high tensile strength is increasing the preference for using these materials in the aerospace industry. The two main components of these materials are a matrix phase made of aluminum or its alloy, and a non-metallic component made of SiC and Al2O3. The advantages of AMCs over other unreinforced materials is driving the growth of this market segment.
“AMCs materials improves stiffness, has low density, offers better heat management, and controlled thermal expansion coefficient, which is fueling the demand for these products in the global market. AMCs are used in braking systems of cars and trains and for manufacturing baseball shaft, golf club shaft and head, bicycle frames, horseshoes, and skating shoes. Such varied applications of this material will increase its popularity in the global market,” says Mahitha Mallishetty, a lead analyst at Technavio for research on metals and minerals.
Global refractory matrix composites market: The increasing use of refractory matrix composites in nuclear reaction control rods, solar panels, catalysts in chemical reactions, and spacecraft exteriors applications will fuel the market growth of this segment. These alloys have enhanced properties such as high tensile strength, ductility, and malleability, which increases their application in various end-user industries.
Global nickel matrix composites market: The growing demand for nickel matrix composites are attributed to its extensive use in engines that operate at high temperatures. The use of superalloys like NiCrAlY is used as matrices owing to their high-temperature oxidation resistance properties, which, in turn, will drive the growth of this market segment.
