Alumina-based Ceramics Market: Overview
Aluminum
oxide, or alumina (Al2O3), is a commonly used
and well-known ceramic material that can be engineered based on end-use
requirement. It provides a blend of electrical and mechanical characteristics
owing to which it can be used in a wide-range of applications. Alumina-based
ceramics have been employed in electrical components for several years due to
their high electrical insulation properties. Their use in mechanical parts can
be ascribed to their high strength and resistance to wear and corrosion.
Alumina-based
ceramics are manufactured in a series of purities, along with the use of
additives, which are specifically designed for certain end-uses. These ceramics
can be produced in ranges of shapes and sizes depending on the requirement by
different processing methods such as slip casting, extrusion, and injection
molding. Additionally, brazing and metallizing techniques can be used to
readily attach them with metals and other ceramics.
Alumina-based Ceramics Market: Drivers & Restraints
Major
applications of alumina-based ceramics are in the electronics industry
(substrates, resistor cores, and heavy-duty forming tools), textile
engineering, the chemical industry (heat sinks and protection tubes required in
catalyst carriers and thermal processes), tiles for wear protection and
ballistics, and seal and regulator discs for water taps and valves.
Alumina-based ceramics are also used to manufacture capacitors, insulators,
resistors, sealing refractory parts, furnace and thermocouple protection tubes,
wear pads, laboratory equipment, foundry shapes, cutting tools and abrasive
powders, ballistic armors, and bio-ceramic parts for dental and orthopedic
surgeries.

Alumina-based Ceramics Market Trends & Segmentation
Alumina-based
ceramics are available in different ranges of purity from 85% to 99.9%. Wide
range of purities can be produced due to superior resistance to abrasion,
chemical, and high temperature and electrical insulating properties offered by
alumina. Prominent features of these ceramics are their high hardness and
dielectric constant, which makes these optimal for applications such as high
wear and low electric loss.
Each year,
around 100 million tons of alumina is produced; therefore, it is one of the
most abundant ceramic materials. The versatility in terms of purity and design
flexibility, and the abundance of alumina leads to alumina-based ceramics being
one of the most cost saving material as compared to others.
In terms
of end-user, the global alumina-based
ceramics market can be segmented into electrical and electronics,
medical, chemicals, metallurgical processes, mechanical engineering, and
military equipment.
Alumina-based Ceramics Market: Region-wise Outlook
Based on
region, the global alumina-based ceramics market can be segmented into North
America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa.
Asia Pacific accounted for a dominant share of the global market in 2017.
The region was followed by Europe and North America.
Asia
Pacific accounted for a large share of the global alumina-based ceramics market
due to high demand for alumina-based ceramics from metal fabrication and
electrical & electronics industries. Rapidly expanding electrical &
electronics sector in the region is expected to further boost the demand during
the forecast period. Countries, such as China, Japan, South Korea, and India,
are anticipated to add substantially to the regional demand in Asia Pacific
market.
