Oxide/Oxide Composites: Fastest-Growing Segment of Ceramic Matrix Composites Market
Oxide/oxide composite is currently the fastest-growing segment of ceramic matrix composites. These composites are low-cost alternative for silicon carbide/silicon carbide composites. The oxide/oxide composites allow OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers) to customize light-weight and high-temperature resisting composites for their applications. The consumption of these composites is projected to reach $0.78 billion by 2019. North America is currently the largest consumer for oxide/oxide composites. The market size, in terms of value, of these composites in North America is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 13.50% between 2014 and 2019. India is the fastest-growing market for oxide/oxide composites, registering a CAGR of 18.33% between 2014 and 2019.
Aerospace: Largest Application Segment of Ceramic Matrix Composites Market
Aerospace is currently the largest application of ceramic matrix composites. The market for aerospace segment is projected to grow at a CAGR of 14.06% between 2014 and 2019. Ceramic matrix composites are used in the aerospace industry due to their properties, such as damage tolerance, fracture toughness, and high temperature, wear & corrosion resistance. The light-weight and high temperature resisting properties of CMCs help the manufacturers in maximizing efficiency.
