Aerogel is a mesoporous solid foam, which is derived by replacement of the liquid component of the gel with a gas, and is composed of an interconnected nanostructure network with minimum 50% porosity. Though solid, it is extremely porous, lightweight, and possesses low thermal conductivity, making it an ideal insulation material. Aerogel sponge can be recycled after use, thereby signifying its eco-friendly nature and cost-effectiveness. Thus, owing to such features, aerogel finds its application across various industries such as oil & gas, aerospace, healthcare, electronics, and building insulation. However, high production cost and poor mechanical strength are likely to hinder the growth of the aerogel market. On the contrary, with advancements in materials, the adoption of aerogel is anticipated to increase considerably in applications such as apparel, agriculture, and power generation, thereby augmenting market growth.
The report segments the market by raw material into silica, carbon, alumina, and others. In 2019, the silica aerogel segment garnered 69% share in the global aerogel market, owing to the fact that silica aerogel is used in almost all major applications such as oil & gas, building insulation, automotive, aerospace, and electronics. However, the consumption of carbon aerogel is expected to be the highest during the forecast period, owing to increase in application of carbon aerogel in electronics, semiconductor, and super capacitors applications. Moreover, graphene (carbon-based) aerogel serves as an ideal raw material for oil absorption application, owing to its low density and hydrophilic attribute.
The global aerogel market is segmented by form into blanket, particle/powder, blocks, and panel. In 2019, the blanket aerogel segment accounted for more than 69% share, owing to its wide usage in oil & gas, pharmaceuticals, and other industries. The applications covered in the study include building insulation, oil & gas, aerospace, automotive, health care, chemical, electronics, apparel, and others. In 2019, the oil & gas application garnered the highest revenue of $395.8 million, and is expected to experience a substantial growth in the near future.
However, the building insulation segment is anticipated to grow at the fastest CAGR of 11.4% during the forecast period. This is attributed to the fact that surge in awareness of global warming leads to increase in usage of aerogel panel in newly constructed buildings of developed regions such as Europe and North America.
Region wise, the market is analyzed across North America, Europe Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA. In 2019, the consumption of aerogel in North America was the highest, owing to increase in demand for aerogel for oil & gas and construction applications. However, Europe is projected to exhibit highest growth, registering a CAGR of 10.6% during the forecast period
Competitive intelligence on prominent manufacturers of aerogel provides key insights on the strategies implemented to gain a significant share in the global aerogel market. Top market players in global aerogel market are adopting product launch, partnership, and expansion as their key business strategies to sustain in the competitive market. Some of the leading manufacturers profiled in this report include Armacell International S.A, Active Aerogels, Aerogel Technologies LLC, Aspen Aerogel Inc., BASF SE, Cabot Corporation, Dow Inc., JIOS Aerogel, Svenska Aerogel AB, and Thermablok Aerogels Limited.
