TechNavio today launched its report Carbon Nanotubes in the Global Electronics Market 2012-2016based on an in-depth analysis covering the Americas, and the EMEA and APAC regions. The report aims to aid decision makers’ understanding of the present and future landscape of the market.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio’s Hardware team said: Increased investment in the Research and Development of CNTs is a significant trend observed in the CNTs in the Global Electronics market. For instance, Research and Development of Carbon Nanotubes S.A., also called Nanothinx-NTX, and Innovation Alliance Carbon Nanotubes (Inno.CNT) are engaged in R&D on CNTs. Inno.CNT has a network of more than 80 renowned partners from R&D as well as from industry that was formed to increase the economic potential of CNTs and to drive the development of CNTs. The company undertakes projects focusing on the application of CNTs in the fields of energy and environment, mobility, lightweight construction, and electronics. Such research initiatives help increase the awareness of the various applications of CNTs, and they will thus create a market demand for such products.
According to the report, the price of CNTs has declined in recent years. In 2008, the price of CNTs was in the range of US$80-100 per kg. In 2009, it reduced to US$45-70 per kg and in 2010, it decreased again to US$35-50 per kg. As a result of the increased production of CNTs by several vendors, the price is expected to decline further. This trend of the decline in the price of CNTs is expected to increase the use of these devices in various applications. This is one of the significant factors driving the growth of the CNTs in the Global Electronics market.
Further, the report discusses how the increased production cost of high-quality CNTs is one of the major challenges for the CNTs in the Global Electronics market.
The report also includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market. The key vendors dominating this market space are Arkema Inc., Bayer MaterialScience AG, CNano Technology Ltd., Nanocyl SA, and Showa Denko K.K.
The study was conducted using an objective combination of primary and secondary information including inputs from key participants in the industry. The report contains a comprehensive market and vendor landscape in addition to a SWOT analysis of the key vendors.
