Market Overview:
The global spherical alumina market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market growth is attributed to the increasing demand for thermal interface materials, thermally conductive plastics, and alumina ceramic substrate surface spraying applications across the globe. In terms of type, the 1-30 μm segment is expected to hold a major share of the global spherical alumina market during the forecast period owing to its high thermal conductivity and low price as compared to other types. In terms of application, Thermal Interface Materials (TIM) held a dominant share in 2017 and is projected to grow at a higher CAGR during 2018-2030 owing to increase in adoption for LED lighting and semiconductor packaging applications.
Product Definition:
A spherical alumina is a type of alumina that is shaped like a sphere. It is important because it has a high surface area to volume ratio, which makes it good for use in catalysts and other applications.
1-30 μm:
1-30 μm is the shortest fiber that can be used in a fishing line. It has high strength and durability, which makes it suitable for deep-sea angling. 1-30 μm fibers are made from silica and have a higher melting point compared to other fishing lines; this property allows them to be used as an alternative to heavier monofilament or nylon lines.
30-80 μm:
30-80 μm is the range of spherically-shaped alumina products. It includes both, solid and liquid forms. 30-80% of the commercially available alumina consists of 30-70% ground spherical aluminous material by weight. The remaining part consists either of fully or partially spheres that are not used in commercial applications due to their lower grade than required for manufacturing aluminum alloys.
Application Insights:
The thermal interface materials application segment led the global spherical alumina market in 2017 and is projected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. The product is used as a heat spreader for electronic devices, which require low thermal conductivity. It has excellent thermal shock resistance, high strength, and good adhesion that make it suitable for this application.
Thermally conductive plastics are expected to be one of the fast-growing segments during the forecast period owing to increasing demand from end-use industries such as automotive and medical equipment manufacturing. The products are used in insulation foams, electrical tapes & cables and other industrial applications requiring high temperature resistance over a wide range of temperatures.
Alumina ceramic substrate spraying was another prominent segment accounted for a share of 15% in 2017 owing to its rising use as an alternative stone material for interior decoration purposes including countertops.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2017 and is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. The presence of a large number of manufacturers coupled with cheap labor costs in this region has attracted numerous industry participants to set up their production facilities in Asia Pacific. This, in turn, is likely to boost regional product demand over the forecast period.
The growing automotive sector across Europe and North America are projected to fuel product demand further owing to its increasing use as thermal interface material (TIM) between engine components such as turbines, heat exchangers and fans. In addition, rising consumer disposable income levels are anticipated to drive spending on technologically advanced products for household applications such as flooring tiles made from ceramic composite materials or spray-on sub-base coatings made from alumina spherical aluminas which would propel market growth over the next eight years or so.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from the electronics and semiconductor industry for spherical alumina as a substrate material.
- Growing demand for alumina nanoparticles in various applications such as cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and coatings.
- Rising adoption of alumina nanoparticles in water treatment and purification systems owing to their superior properties such as high surface area, low cost, and environmental friendliness.
- Increasing use of spherical alumina particles in optical applications due to their excellent light transmission properties across a wide range of wavelengths 5) Growing demand for spherical alumina particles from the aerospace industry for manufacturing advanced composites
