[198 Pages Report] The Ferroelectric Materials Market size was estimated at USD 3.10 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 3.35 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 8.64% to reach USD 5.54 billion by 2030.
Ferroelectric materials are a class of crystalline substances characterized by their automatic electric polarization, which can be reversed by involving an external electric field. This unique property is attributed to the asymmetric arrangement of atoms within the crystal lattice, directing to a non-centrosymmetric structure. Ferroelectric materials exhibit various properties, including the piezoelectric effect, pyroelectricity, and dielectric tunability, making them highly valuable in multiple applications. Increasing demand for consumer electronics globally, with the expanding adoption of ferroelectric sensors for aerospace and automotive applications, increases the market growth. However, the high cost associated with the production of ferroelectric materials may impede market growth. Nevertheless, incorporating ferroelectric materials with nanotechnology and increasing the application of ferroelectric materials in the healthcare sector is expected to create potential opportunities for the growth of the ferroelectric materials market.
