Why are Worldwide Sales of Nanoporous Materials Booming?

Nanoporous materials are basically materials that comprise a regular organic or inorganic framework which reinforced a regular porous structure. These pores generally have a size of around 100 nanometers or sometimes even smaller. Most of these materials are classified as membranes or bulk materials. As nanoporous materials have large surfaces, they exhibit excellent catalytic and absorbent properties, which make them highly suitable for use as absorbents and catalysts. Moreover, some organic nanoporous materials can be made artificially.

According to the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC), nanoporous materials are segregated into three segments namely microporous materials with a pore size in the 0.2–2nm range, mesoporous materials with pore size in the 2–50nm range, and microporous materials with pore size more than 50nm. Nanoporous materials are also used in ion-exchange applications. Moreover, they are needed in nano reactors, guest-host interaction, and low dielectric constant mediation. In addition, they are extensively used in biomedical applications for preventing bacteria and decontamination, slowing down drug release, and filtration in hemodialysis. 

Because of the large-scale use of nanoporous materials in the above-mentioned applications, the global nanoporous materials market is predicted to exhibit huge expansion in the coming years. The market generated a revenue of $6,411.7 million in 2015 and it will progress at a CAGR of 8.3% from 2016 to 2022, as per the estimates of P&S Intelligence, a market research company based in India. Petroleum refining, water treatment, pet litter, chemical processing, food and beverages, and detergents are the major end-users of these materials.

Hence, it can be said without hesitation that the sales of nanoporous materials will soar all over the world in the coming years, mainly because of their mushrooming usage in various end-use industries, such as chemicals, petroleum, and food and beverages.

Why Oxygen-Free Copper Market Opportunities Galore in APAC?

Image
 The major factors in the global oxygen-free copper market are skyrocketing demand for oxygen-free copper wires in the electronics & electrical industry and electric vehicles (EVs). This surging demand is owing to their ease of welding, renowned creep resistance, high impact strength, high thermal and electrical conductivity, and high ductility. The market is predicted to grow significantly in the coming years. The outbreak of COVID-19 had disrupted the entire circular economy, significantly reducing this market’s sales because of the ruptured logistical network, shutdown of electronic & electrical product factories, and reduced EV production. Within the grade system, the oxygen-free copper market can be bifurcated into oxygen-free electronic and oxygen-free categories. The latter bifurcation generated higher revenue in the market in the past, not only in terms of value but also in terms of volume. The category will continue to exhibit this trend in the coming years as well. T

Why Is OLED Material Consumption Highest in Asia-Pacific?

Image
The technology of TV displays has evolved significantly from the cathode ray tubes of the mid-20th century to the liquid crystal displays (LCDs) and light-emitting diodes (LEDs) of the first decade of the 21st century. With efforts on to make the displays even better, organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) have been invented, which are rapidly becoming popular in TVs, smartphones, laptops, tablets, and automotive displays. This is because of the several advantages OLED screens offer, including brighter pictures, larger viewing angles, ability to work in a wider temperature range, and lower power consumption. Moreover, OLEDs are so thin that they can be used for curved and folded screens, which are becoming rapidly popular, especially in wearable devices and other consumer electronics. Similarly, transparent displays, which are helping revolutionize advertising activities, have become possible due to OLEDs. P&S Intelligence cites these advantages and the constant research being put i

How Will Rapid Industrialization Drive Hydraulic Equipment Demand?

Image
The Government of India completed the construction of 2,734 projects under the Smart City Mission till 2021. The government is currently working on the construction of 100 smart cities, 6 new ports and 14 coastal economic zones (CEZs). Likewise, Infrastructure Australia (IA) approved the construction of 44 new infrastructure projects in February 2021. The rising construction activities, on account of the booming population and mounting investments being made in the construction sector, will propel the need for hydraulic equipment in the coming years. Additionally, the rapid industrialization in developing countries will drive the hydraulic equipment market growth during 2021–2030. According to P&S Intelligence, the market generated a revenue of $37 billion in 2020. For instance, the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) aims to offer institutional support to special economic zones (SEZs) and industrial and technology parks in Brazil. The UNIDO will help Brazil
