Superconducting Materials Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2023-2028
The global superconducting materials market size reached US$ 1,068 Million in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 2,642 Million by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 16.3% during 2022-2028.
Superconducting materials refer to various metallic compounds or alloys that can conduct electricity/ electric charge with no resistance and without releasing heat, sound and energy. Some of the commonly used superconducting materials include gallium, cadmium, aluminum, vanadium, zinc, tungsten, thorium, lead, titanium and lanthanum. These materials are available in the form of powders or crystals, magnets, wires and cables. They are widely used in power storage devices, power grids, electric motors, magnetic levitation trains, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and electromagnetic generators. As a result, they find extensive applications across various industries, including electronics and medical.
Significant growth in the electronics and medical industries across the globe represents one of the key factors creating a positive outlook for the market. Superconducting materials are extensively used in the MRI equipment to diagnose various medical ailments, such as cardiovascular and musculoskeletal disorders, by producing accurate images of the internal organs. In line with this, electronics manufacturers use these materials for resistance-free conductivity in electric fans, elevators, pumps, industrial equipment, air conditioners, televisions and refrigerators. Additionally, various product innovations, such as the development of high-temperature superconducting fibers, are acting as other major growth-inducing factors. They are commonly used to manufacture high-endurance power cables, which can transmit energy at high speeds and can be efficiently utilized in various storage systems. Other factors, including the utilization of superconducting materials for improving the performance of smart grids, along with extensive research and development (R&D) activities, are anticipated to drive the market further.
