Automotive Ceramic Matrix Composites Market- Covid-19 Impact, Applications, Driving Opportunities and Forecast 2017 – 2025
A composite is
defined as a multiphase material that exhibits significant proportion of
properties of the constituent phases. It usually consists of a continuous phase
called matrix and a dispersed phase called reinforcement. Ceramic matrix
composite (CMC) is ceramic-based reinforced material that is used in various
end-use industries such as construction, oil & gas, energy, aerospace,
consumer goods, and electrical & electronics. Automotive is a major end-use
industry for ceramic matrix composites. CMC materials overcome the major
disadvantages of conventional technical ceramics such as brittle failure, low fracture
toughness, and limited thermal shock resistance. Therefore, CMC materials are
used in fields that require reliability at high-temperatures and resistance to
corrosion and wear. Ceramic composite brake systems is one of the key
applications of ceramic matrix composite in automotive applications. Ceramic
matrix composites are also employed in automotive clutches. They can operate
with little or no cooling, providing a significant efficiency boost to the
cycle.

Composites
offer many structural and weight advantages over traditional steel and
injection molded automotive parts. These include cost and weight reduction and
recyclability. Ceramic matrix composites account for one-third of the weight of
previously used nickel (Ni) super-alloys. Ceramic matrix composites are
generally employed in the manufacture of brake disks and brake system
components, which experience extreme thermal shock, in the automotive industry.
Advantages offered by carbon reinforced ceramic matric composite include little
wear, resulting in lifetime use for a car with a normal driving load of 300,000
km, better corrosion resistance, and reduced weight as compared to the
previously used metal disk.

The
passenger cars sector is anticipated to drive the global automotive industry
due to the rise in disposable income of consumers. Increase in disposable
income is also estimated to boost the demand for luxury cards across the globe.
However, growth in environmental concerns is projected to hamper the market
during the forecast period. Automotive manufacturers are focusing on reducing
the weight of vehicles to provide highly efficient cars and low fuel
consumption. Therefore, OEMs are substituting traditional materials with
advanced engineered composites such as ceramic matrix composites. Weight
reduction improves shock absorber response, road-holding comfort, agility, fuel
economy, and thus driving comfort. This is estimated to boost the demand for
automotive ceramic matrix composites during the forecast period. However, high
cost is the prominent barrier for further penetration in cost-sensitive areas.
Nonetheless, manufacturers of ceramic matrix composites have been developing
technologies to reduce the cost of composites.

In terms
of geography, the global automotive
ceramic matrix composites market can be segmented into North America,
Asia Pacific, Europe, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. The
automotive ceramic matrix composites market in Asia Pacific is anticipated to
expand rapidly during the forecast period due to the expansion in the
automotive industry in countries such as China, India, Malaysia, and Japan.
Thus, Asia Pacific is anticipated to dominate the global market during the
forecast period. North America and Europe follow Asia Pacific in the automotive
ceramic matrix composites market in terms of share. Latin America is
anticipated to offer high growth opportunities for the reinforced automotive
ceramic matrix composites market, due to the expansion in the automotive
industry in the region. The automotive ceramic matrix composites market in
Middle East & Africa is also likely to expand in the near future.
The global
automotive ceramic matrix composites market is slightly consolidated, with the
U.S. and China being prominent manufacturers of composites. However, several
manufacturers operate around the world. Key players in the automotive ceramic
matrix composites market include SGL Group, Ceramtec, Composites Horizons,
ATK/COI Ceramics, United Technologies Aerospace Systems, and COI Ceramics Inc.
