Bonded Magnets Market: Current Analysis and Forecast (2022-2030)
A bonding magnet comprises a magnetic powder, adhesive, and suitable additives, making for a complicated combination. Bonded magnets are highly valued in the area of rare earth permanent magnets due to their benefits such as consistent performance, accurate size, complex shape, and efficient material use. Their mechanical properties are favorable, and they exhibit greater electrical resistivity when compared to sintered magnets.
The Bonded Magnets Market is expected to grow at a steady rate of around 6.94% owing to the burgeoning adoption of electric vehicles over the world. The implementation of new technology and the global move towards the electrification of vehicles has a significant growth in the bonded magnets. Moreover, the persistent endeavor of various countries, including the U.S., China, and India, to adopt electric vehicles, are geared towards curbing pollution and minimizing carbon emissions in the environment. Magnets are a primary component in electric motors, powered by an electric motor rather than an internal combustion engine. These cars rely on a large traction battery pack for power. To ensure the battery's longevity, the electric motor must work in an exceptionally efficient manner. An electric vehicle’s motor operates when a coil of wire, encircled by strong magnets, spins. The electric current induced in the coil emits a magnetic field, which opposes the magnetic field emitted by the strong magnets that drive the wheel of the cars. For instance, In 2021, according to the international energy agency(IEA), Consumers spent USD 120 billion on electric car purchases in 2020, a 50% increase from 2019, which breaks down to a 41% increase in sales and a 6% rise in average prices. Moreover, in February 2023, according to a report published by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the consumer demand for EVs has risen significantly from 22000 EVs on the road in 2011 to a little over 2 million in a decade till 2021.
