Ceramic Substrates - Global Market Outlook (2021-2028)

Ceramic Substrates - Global Market Outlook (2021-2028)

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Ceramic Substrates Market is accounted for $7.02 billion in 2021 and is expected to reach $12.03 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 8.0% during the forecast period. A ceramic substrate is a wetted surface, which is microscopically rough. Ceramic substrates are materials that consist of metal, non-metal, metalloid atoms, and inorganic compounds, and are generally categorized into crystalline ceramic substrates and noncrystalline ceramics. Ceramic substrates are known for their high thermal conductivity, electrical insulation, resistance, and stability in high temperature.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Growing Need for Innovative Architecture and Reduction Of Electronic Devices

Prompt R&D and technological advancements have created a demand for reliable and compact electronic devices. This has led to the growing demand for miniaturized electronic devices. Many electronic products have become more advanced with the development of semiconductor technology that required the use of hybrid circuits, which are embedded in ceramic substrates. Miniaturization is one of the three benefits provided by ceramic substrates: the other two being hermetic sealing and heat conduction. The incorporation of thin-film ceramic substrates has led to the miniaturization of many electronic devices such as smartphones, tablet personal computers, e-book readers, and video cameras, which are composed of a wide variety of hybrid circuits. Initially, glass epoxy resin substrates were used as hybrid circuit substrates. Ceramic substrates technology helped in reducing the size of electronic devices by scaling down the electrical hybrid circuits. The growing demand for these electronic devices is expected to play a major role in driving the market.

Restraint:

Instability in Raw Material Prices

As aluminum is the raw material for various electronic materials including ceramic substrates such as aluminum nitride and alumina the prices of these can vary owing to the variation in raw material prices. The global aluminum demand seemed affected with the automotive and aerospace sectors, in particular, feeling the full force of the downturn.

Opportunity:

Rising Demand for Nanotechnology and High-End Computing System

As it is used in have an extensive range of applications in the electrical & electronics sector. Increasing usage of semiconductors, microfabrication, and surface science has created new growth opportunities for the market. Nanomaterials, nanopillars, nanoparticles, nanorods, and others are used in the field of medicine, space, and energy & power. All these applications require ceramic substrates because of their properties such as high wear, temperature, and corrosion resistance. All these factors provide growth opportunities to the ceramic substrates market.

Threat:

Availability of Substitute

One of the major threats for the ceramic substitutes market is the easy availability of substitutes for ceramic inks. The alternatives to ceramic inks include ultraviolet (UV) curing inks, organic inks, and electron beam inks.

Automotive segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The components used in automobiles such as electronic substrates and displays; converters and filters; heat sinks and resistors cores; and valve components contain several ceramic parts. The excellent mechanical strength and durability of ceramic substrates make it a suitable product for automotive and other end-user industries. The growth of the automotive sector indicates the growing demand for ceramic products.

The Alumina Substrates segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

Alumina is the most widely used advanced oxide ceramic material, which has a wide range of applications. The parts for alumina substrates are manufactured using the technologies: uniaxial (die) pressing, isostatic pressing, injection molding, extrusion, and slip casting. It is characterized by high strength and hardness, high wear and corrosion resistance, and temperature stability. Alumina substrates meet all the requirements of insulating materials for applications in electrical & electronics engineering. Alumina substrates are widely used in thick and thin-film applications as they are an inexpensive option as compared to other ceramic substrates.

Region with highest share:

The Asia Pacific is projected to hold the highest market share due to the major region of the ceramic substrate market. The Asia Pacific is anticipated to be a rapidly growing province of the ceramic substrate market, due to the high demand for electronic products in developing countries in the area. China is expected to become the largest market for electronics and semiconductor products over the coming years. According to the Industry, Science, and Technology International Strategy Center (ISTI), the production value of Taiwan’s semiconductor industry is anticipated to grow substantially, owing to the increasing demand for integrated circuit (IC) devices for artificial intelligence applications. Together, China and Japan account for a prominent share of the market in the province.

Region with highest CAGR:

Europe is projected to have the highest CAGR, primarily, due to the gradual shift of the manufacturing industry to countries with higher demand and lower production costs. The financial crisis also had a significant impact on the European manufacturing industries which are still recovering, leading to relatively stagnant demand for ceramic substrates. The market players are emphasizing increasing the production of oxide ceramics in Europe, which is driving the market for ceramic substrates.
