Global Research Inc. has released three market research reports on the Nanomaterials industry. Nanomaterials are novel molecules employed in numerous products.
Despite the potential harm these particles could cause in the form of respiratory health and adverse effect on the food chain, the market for the Nanomaterials has grown ten times to a staggering production level of 270,000 tons in the period 2002 to 2011. Nanotechnology has pervaded numerous industries, particularly the electronics and plastics and polymer segment.
The first report is titled “The Global Market for Nanomaterials 2002-2016: Production volumes, revenues and end user market demand.” The production volume of Nanomaterials is envisaged to increase to 350,000 tons by 2016. The growth is expected to be fuelled by demand from energy, electronics, chemicals, medicine and coatings industries. The report offers both quantitative and qualitative data and forecasts of global market for Nanomaterials from 2002 to 2016. The nano-based products in the scope of the report are carbon nanotubes, graphene, fullerenes, nanofibers, nanocellulose, quantum dots, nanoclays and metal oxide nanopowders. The second report is titled “Nanomaterials in Plastics and Advanced Polymers” and covers the diverse range of sectors that are affected by incorporation of Nanomaterials in plastics and polymers. The markets impacted include aviation, food, aerospace, electronics packaging, sporting good, electrical and electronic goods and pharmaceuticals. The third report focuses exclusively on the penetration of nanotechnology in the electronics sector. Titled “Nanotechnology and Nanomaterials in the Electronics Sector”, the report lists the applications and products facilitated by nanotechnology and nanomaterials in the electronics field.
