The growing demand for electronics is expected to drive the expansion of the nanotechnology products market in the coming years. Electronics refers to the branch of science and technology dedicated to designing and utilizing devices that control the flow of electrons to process, transmit, and store information or energy. This growth is fueled by technological advancements that enhance device efficiency and increase consumer demand. Nanotechnology products play a pivotal role in advancing electronics by enabling the development of smaller, faster, and more energy-efficient devices. They improve performance through superior conductivity, compact component design, and increased data storage capacity, fostering innovation in fields such as semiconductors and sensors. For example, in May 2023, according to the Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association, consumer electronics production equipment reached 32.09 billion yen ($279.01 million). In comparison, in May 2022, it stood at 25.26 billion yen ($219.64 million). As a result, the rising demand for electronics is contributing to the growth of the nanotechnology products market.

Leading companies in the nanotechnology products market are developing advanced innovations, such as nanotechnology-based injectable hydrogels, to improve durability and versatility in medical applications. These injectable hydrogels, enhanced with nanoscale technology, are designed for targeted therapies within the body. They support precise drug delivery, promote tissue regeneration, and ensure high biocompatibility. For instance, in October 2024, UPM Biomedicals, a Finland-based material solutions provider, introduced FibGel, the world’s first injectable nanocellulose hydrogel for medical devices. Made entirely from birch wood cellulose and water, it offers a safe, sustainable, and biocompatible alternative to synthetic and animal-derived hydrogels. Developed in Finland under ISO 13485 standards, FibGel is intended for applications such as soft tissue repair, orthopedics, regenerative medicine, and advanced drug delivery. It is notable for its customizable physical properties, long-term stability for permanent implants, and low risk of adverse immune reactions, addressing major limitations of existing hydrogel materials.

In October 2023, Birla Carbon, a US-based manufacturer and supplier of carbon black additives, acquired Nanocyl SA for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition strengthens Birla Carbon’s position in the energy systems market by broadening its product range for lithium-ion battery materials and other conductive applications. It supports the company’s strategy to lead in materials essential to battery performance, contributing to the electrification and sustainability goals in sectors such as transportation. Nanocyl SA is a Belgium-based producer of multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs).

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s recommendations and conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

The intensifying U.S. tariffs and escalating trade tensions in spring 2025 are expected to have a significant impact on the chemicals sector, which is bearing a disproportionate burden, particularly from tariffs on petrochemicals and intermediates, where affordable domestic substitutes are often unavailable. Producers of specialty chemicals, heavily dependent on Chinese raw materials, are experiencing production disruptions. At the same time, fertilizer manufacturers are seeing profit margins eroded due to tariffs on phosphate imports. In response, companies are ramping up R&D into bio-based alternatives, forming procurement alliances to consolidate buying power, and shifting production to tariff-neutral nations such as Saudi Arabia.

Nanotechnology products are materials or devices engineered at the nanoscale, typically within the 1-100 nanometer range, to provide superior characteristics such as increased strength, reduced weight, improved conductivity, and precise functionality. They leverage nanoscale properties to create more advanced, efficient, and durable solutions across a wide range of industries.

The primary categories of nanotechnology products include nanomaterials, nanodevices, and nanotools. Nanomaterials are extremely small materials measuring under 100 nanometers that offer enhanced strength, reactivity, or conductivity, making them suitable for applications in coatings, electronics, textiles, and medicine. These products are distributed through various channels, including direct sales, distributors and wholesalers, online platforms, and third-party retailers, and are used in industries such as healthcare, electronics, energy and power, aerospace and defense, among others.
