Silicon Carbide Market To Gain From Enhanced Demand For Automobile Industry In Asia-Pacific Till 2020: Grand View Research, Inc.
According to the report published by Grand View Research, global silicon carbide market will reach $4.49 bn, demand was 1,060.2 kilotons. it is now projected to reach 2,769 kilotons, growing at a CAG rate of 15.3% From 2014 to 2020.
San Francisco, California, United States – August 29, 2016 /MarketersMedia/ —
Positive outlook for steel manufacturing, for which silicon carbide (SiC) is used as a deoxidizer, is expected to drive the SiC demand. Moreover, SiC is a key element in the production of semiconductors. This is expected to witness a huge growth in the near future. Growing automobile industry, particularly in Asia-Pacific, is also projected to drive the global SiC demand.
Energy and steel were the biggest end-use application sectors, accounting for over 303 kilotons of the overall demand in 2013. Growing energy & steel demands in emerging markets of China & India, driven by infrastructural developments, is said to be a major cause for SiC demand growth in the near future. Due to its superior properties, SiC is also widely used in semiconductors & electronics applications. It accounted for 254 kilotons of the total demand in 2013.

Asia-Pacific was the major market for SiC, with revenue exceeding $870.0 million in 2013. The presence of major end-user industries, such as automotive & steel, is projected to boost the SiC demand in this region. Moreover, this region is also said to witness rapid growth, at an approximate CAG rate of 16.7% over the forecast period.
Healthcare & medical end-use applications are expected to witness a rapid growth at an estimated CAG rate of 16.4% over the forecast period. Growing demand for advanced medical & healthcare products in countries, such as Japan, India, and China, is projected to drive the SiC demand in this application.
AGSCO Corporation, Saint-Gobain Ceramics Materials GmbH, and Grindwell Norton Ltd. are some of the key companies in the global SiC market.
