Product Code: AD 1073
Carbon nanotubes are minuscule allotropes of carbon having sizes to the scale
of nanometers. The physical, electrical, and thermal properties make these a
special material for number of applications. CNTs have very high tensile
strength, excellent electrical conductivity, and the ability to bear high
working temperatures. However, not withstanding some challenges like high cost
of production and integration issues, the CNTS application markets have made
great breakthroughs.
CNTs enabled nanotechnology to become one of the most sought-after
technologies and have made a huge impact on a wide range of applications such
as electronics, medicine, aerospace, defense, automotives, energy,
construction, etc. With some of the big producers stepping up their production
capacities, the prices of CNTs are bound to come down and this will induce a
spiraling effect on the application areas; thereby pushing up the demand for
CNTs. With extensive research regarding CNTs being carried out by almost all
the leading companies in the above mentioned application areas, the challenges
of integration of CNTs will eventually loosen out and in a nutshell, it would
be said that CNTs are the hottest nanomaterial in the time to come.
The global market for CNTs has grown during the past few years, driven by
superior properties and adaptability of CNTs in major end-user industry
applications. The CNTs market is expected to register a healthy growth on
account of growth in the key end-user industries. The Asia-Pacific market is a
major consumer of CNTs with highest usage in electronics & semiconductors and
advanced materials industries. In 2012, the production and revenue generation
of CNTs was witnessed to be high in the Asia-Pacific region, followed by the
North America region.
