Global Nanoclay Reinforcement Market is valued at approximately USD 4.0 billion in 2021 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 23.3% over the forecast period 2022-2029. Nanoclay reinforcements are widely employed in many applications to improve electrical, mechanical, and thermal properties. This comprises liquid silicone, rubber, nonwovens, fibres, polymer films, hybrid phenolic friction composites, medium density fiberboard, and other composite materials. MDF is a composite material made of wood that is widely utilised in the furniture sector. Industry growth is anticipated to be fueled by an increase in goods because of their superior qualities, including toughness, stiffness, dimensional stability, thermal resistance, chemical resistance, improved barrier properties, and flexibility at high temperatures. Because these materials are so easily accessible and have such cheap manufacturing costs, plastic manufacturers have increased their use of them, which has led to continued growth over the predicted period. The most popular commercially used nanomaterial is nanoclays, which generate about 70% of sales. Intriguing uses for nanotechnology, which involves manipulating matter at the nanoscale, are constantly emerging as a result of ongoing research and development. According to Statista, Global market value for nanotechnology was close to 88.0 billion dollars in 2021, growing at a rate of 15.75% each year.
In addition, the market is primarily driven by rising demand from the electronics and construction industries. The market for nanoclay reinforcement is also being driven by the superior dispersion and exfoliation, lower weight, and other qualities that nanoclay offers. The lightning-fast rate of improvements in electronic technology is fueling the ongoing desire for better and faster electronic gadgets and applications. For consumers and business users to update or replace outdated products with newer models, technology advancement is crucial. By 2023, internet sales in the Consumer Electronics sector will account for 45.9% of all revenue. The global economy has a significant impact on the construction industry. New construction initiatives frequently increase demand for products. The expansion of the construction equipment market will be fueled by governmental and private sector expenditures in infrastructure projects as urbanization accelerates. East Asia, Western Europe, and North America are significant geographical areas for this business. Some well-known producers of construction equipment call these areas home, and they face fierce competition. The market for construction equipment worldwide is anticipated to reach a value of USD 140 billion in 2020. Government initiatives to encourage various investments in nanotechnology research and development are expected to accelerate the market growth for nanoclay reinforcing materials. However, Strict rules governing the usage of nanoclay could severely restrict the market over the forecast period of 2022-2029.
The key regions considered for the Global Nanoclay Reinforcement Market study include Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America, and Rest of the World. North America dominated the market in terms of revenue, owing to the growing adoption of government measures to encourage various investments in nanotechnology research and development are expected to accelerate the market growth of nanoclay reinforcing materials. Whereas, Asia Pacific is expected to grow at the highest growth rate over the forecasting period. Factors such as emerging economies’ rapid urbanization fueling demand from the building sector, which helps these areas to expand. Another important industry in this area is the electronic industry, which has seen a rise in the demand for nanoclay-reinforced materials due to their superior barrier and mechanical qualities are burgeoning the market growth in the forecasting years.
