Increasing Demand from the Electronic Industry to Augment Growth of the Graphene Nanocomposites Market
Graphene is a form of carbon and known as the thinnest and
strongest material that exists in the world. Graphene has a lot of promising
applications such as anti-corrosion coatings and paints, faster and efficient
electronics, efficient and precise sensors, efficient solar panels, flexible
displays, drug delivery, faster DNA sequencing, and more. Graphene find
applications in various fields such as nanocomposites, energy storage devices,
solar cells, electrodes, sensors, and. field effect devices. Moreover, graphene
nanocomposites have demonstrated a great potential to serve as next-gen
functional or structural materials.
Market Dynamics:
Increasing demand for graphene nanocomposites from the
electronic industry owing to their exceptional electrical properties, such as
ballistic transport at room temperature, high mobility, and electrical
conductivity, is expected to propel the growth of the graphene nanocomposites
market. For instance, according to the India Brand Equity Foundation,
electronics hardware production in the country increased from US$ 65.53 billion
in 2019 to US$ 73.78 billion in 2020. Demand for electronics hardware in India
is expected to reach US$ 400 billion by 2024.
Moreover, favorable government initiatives and increasing
research and development activities are also expected to augment the growth of
the graphene
nanocomposites market. For instance, in November 2020, a new project was
launched under the name of GraphCAT, an initiative to create an ecosystem of
research centers focused in the study of graphene. The project received funding
from the Government of Catalonia and the European Union. GraphCAT aims to
establish the autonomous Spanish region as an international hub for graphene
research and development.
Competitive Analysis:
Major players operating in the graphene nanocomposites
market are 2-D Tech, Gramor, Graphenea and Graphene Tech, Applied Graphene
Materials, William Blythe Limited, ACS Material DFJ Nanotechnologies Co Ltd,
Abalonyx AS, Angstron Materials, Graphene Laboratories Inc., and others.
Major players in the market are adopting various strategies
to gain competitive edge in the market. For instance, in October 2020, Nanotech
Energy launched Nanotech EMI Armor Paint & Sheets, graphene powered
coatings and films for electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency
interference (RFI) shielding, as well as heat management.
In June 2020, Zen Graphene Solutions and the Nanomaterials
and Polymer Nanocomposites Laboratory at the University of British Columbia‐Okanagan
Campus received a C$200,000-award from Canada’s Department of National Defence
to develop electrically conductive, moulded and 3D printed graphene/polymer
nanocomposites as more versatile replacements for metallic electromagnetic
shields that are currently in use.
