The global ceramic matrix composite market size is anticipated to reach USD 7.72 billion by 2025, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. It is projected to expand at a CAGR of 12.9% during the forecast period. Properties of Ceramic Matric Composites (CMC) including superior wear and corrosion resistance coupled with light weight and higher strength retention at elevated temperatures has generated demand from the defense, aerospace, and automotive sectors. Increasing fuel prices coupled with growing focus on energy conservation has generated the need for lightweight components to improve fuel efficiency.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) and the Department of Transportation-administered National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) have outlined standards to reduce the
vehicular emissions and to enhance fuel efficiency. Moreover, governments in
the European Union (EU), China, U.S., Japan, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, South
Korea, and India have greenhouse gas emission regulations in place for light
commercial and passenger vehicles. Such regulations are expected to fuel the
demand for CMC over the forecast years.

High strength coupled with reduced weight
and high thermal stability has increased the popularity of ceramic matrix
composites. CMC possess high thermal stability and electrical conductivity and
are very useful in several electronic and thermal management applications where
high efficiency is essential.
In terms of product, oxides ceramic matrix
composites was worth USD 0.97 billion in 2018 and is expected to reach USD 2.36
billion by 2025. Enhanced properties of oxides such as high fracturing
toughness and no oxidation in addition to the less expensive production process
is expected to propel the demand from aerospace, defense, and energy and power
applications. Silicon carbide ceramic matrix composites (SiC) emerged as the
largest product segment in terms of volume and accounted for 35.24% of market
share in 2018.
Aerospace segment of the ceramic matrix
composites market was worth USD 1.38 billion in 2018 and is likely to witness
robust growth over the forecast period. Excellent properties, including
high-temperature stability, light weight, and dynamic load resistance are
suitable for manufacturing aircraft components. Energy and power application is
anticipated to have the highest CAGR of 14.7% in terms of volume over the
forecast period. The defense application accounted for 18.40% market share by
volume in 2018 and is expected to grow significantly over the forecast period.
Superior abrasion resistance properties and lightweight are the major factors
expected to fuel the demand in defense applications.
