COVID-19 Impact on Advanced Functional Materials Market

·         On January 30, 2020, the International Health Regulations Emergency Committee of the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak a public health emergency of international concern. Originating in China, the virus has spread to at least 214 countries and territories around the world.

·         Several governments and private sector businesses are operating at a limited capacity or have ceased operations completely due to recent events surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic.

·         Manufacture of various consumer goods and other products across the globe came to a halt due to the unavailability of raw materials, shortage of labor, etc. This is expected to hamper the advanced functional materials market.

Asia Pacific to Hold Leading Share of Advanced Functional Materials Market

·         In terms of region, the advanced functional materials market can be divided into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa

·         Asia Pacific is expected to hold major share of the global advanced functional materials market, followed by North America and Europe, during the forecast period. This can be ascribed to the growth in applications such as electronics, health care, and aerospace & defense in the region. China and India are the key markets for advanced functional materials. Increase in demand for automotive products and presence of a large number of consumer electronic device manufacturers are likely to boost the advanced functional materials market in Asia Pacific during the forecast period. Rise in investments in the aerospace & defense industry has boosted the demand for advanced functional materials in the region.

Tunnel Boring Machine Market: Applications, Revenue, Growth and Trends

  Tunnel boring machines are gigantic special-purpose machines, particularly used in building tunnels for roads, railways, and pipelines. These machines are long with circular cross-sections and help in boring round holes through any rock. Tunnel boring machines are intricate assemblies of several systems working in conjunction with each other. Diameter of tunnel boring machines ranges from 1 meter to 20 meters. These machines can cut clean through rocks, sometimes along with creating concrete shields around the bored tunnels. The tunnel boring machine market is largely driven by the increase in spending on road and railway infrastructure. Countries such as China, Japan, Italy, South Korea, Norway, and Germany have vast tunnel networks. The key reason is to connect major cities within the country, sometimes even international, with minimum commute time. This largely optimizes the transportation costs and connects cities to boost commerce. The other method for building tunnels is...
