Technical Ceramic Market Trends:
Technical ceramics are increasingly replacing metals, polymers, and refractory materials on account of their hardness, chemical stability, and high-temperature capability. This represents one of the key factors impelling the growth of the market. Moreover, they are utilized in the manufacturing of pump plungers, liners, shafts, mechanical seals, valve seats, spray nozzles, milling media, knives, lift pins, blades, bushings, and semiconductor rings. Besides this, advanced technical ceramics, such as zirconium dioxide (ZrO2), aluminum oxide (Al2O3), silicon carbide (SiC), and silicon nitride (Si3N4), are used in industrial applications, including metal forming and machining of parts. This, coupled with the rising utilization of technical ceramics as construction materials in mechanical components, is strengthening the growth of the market. Apart from this, these ceramics find extensive applications in the production of hip and knee implants as they offer chemical inertness and high wear resistance. Additionally, there is an increase in the use of technical ceramics in dentistry for fillings, implants, the replacement of crowns, and bonding materials in root canal procedures. This, along with the burgeoning healthcare industry, rising geriatric population and the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, is anticipated to stimulate the growth of the market in the coming years.Market Segmentation:
