Executive Summary
This report studies the CMC and CAMC market in terms of value (in U.S. dollars). It includes an in-depth analysis of four regions of the CMC and CAMC market: North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific (APAC) and Rest of the World. The report also studies the market by applications, matrix and reinforcement. The application segment includes aerospace and defense, electronics, energy and environmental, mechanical and chemical, medical and dental, sensors and instrumentation, and transportation. The matrix segment includes carbon, silicon carbide, alumina, calcium phosphate and others. The reinforcement segment includes continuous fiber, short fibers and other fibers.Within this sector, CMCs and CAMCs are primarily used for friction products, engine components, thermal shields and armor products.
Despite the negative effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on industries, countries have increased defense budgets and military spending. Multiple nations are in the race to become super and nuclear powers due to the use of these materials that can tolerate temperature and impact, which are lightweight for vehicles and armor, creating huge demand in this industry.
Demand for ceramic and carbon matrix composites is projected to continue growing at a fairly rapid pace during the forecast period due to various factors, including:
- Sustained demand for CMCs and CAMCs in existing applications due to their unique properties.
- The migration of certain applications (e.g., jet turbine engines) from pilot production to mass production.
- Introduction of new composite materials with enhanced properties.
- Introduction of more efficient and cost-effective production technologies that will facilitate economies of scale.
- Growing penetration of nanocomposite materials with advanced performance characteristics.
- High levels of related research and development (R&D) activity.
