Global Carbon Nanotubes Market is valued at approximately USD 0.96 billion in 2022 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 14.6% during the forecast period 2023-2030. A carbon nanotube (CNT) is a cylindrical carbon-based structure with a typically nanometer-scale diameter, representing one of carbon's allotropes. Their remarkable characteristics stem from their nanoarchitecture and the robust bonds between carbon atoms. CNTs are known for their exceptional tensile strength and thermal conductivity. Additionally, specific configurations of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes (SWCNTs) display heightened electrical conductivity, while others exhibit semiconductor properties. CNTs possess high electrical, mechanical, and thermal properties, making them valuable components in electronics for efficient signal transmission and high-speed data processing. Therefore, the high demand for electronic products in various sectors is driving the growth of this market. Carbon Nanotubes can efficiently capture and convert sunlight into electricity through photovoltaic processes, offering potential applications in solar cells and panels with potential in energy storage applications, such as high-capacity batteries and supercapacitors, contributing to the advancement of renewable energy technologies.
The rising adoption of Renewable energy sources due to the awareness of protecting the earth from pollution is driving the growth of the Carbon Nanotubes Market. According to Center for Climate and Energy Solutions, in 2020, renewable energy sources accounted for 29% of electricity generation globally, with a significant portion derived from hydropower, constituting 16.8 %. The continuous Research and Development process in the Scope of Application for Carbon Nanotubes is expected to be an opportunity where the component can be used in many other industries. The utilization of CNT in drug delivery systems to encapsulate and transport therapeutic agents to specific targets in the body, offering precise and controlled release. The potential applications of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in imaging techniques and various biomedical fields have expanded, broadening their capabilities within the industry. However, Inorganic and boron nitride nanotubes are often preferred over carbon nanotubes due to their high electrical insulation properties, making them advantageous in applications requiring resistance to harsh environments and high temperatures. Scaling up the production of Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) encounters notable hurdles, predominantly stemming from the intricacy of achieving consistent quality and large quantities during synthesis.
