The global porous ceramic market size is expected to reach USD 21.66 billion by 2032, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report "Porous Ceramic Market Share, Size, Trends, Industry Analysis Report, By Raw Material (Alumina, Titanate, Zirconate, Ferrite, Aluminum Nitride, Others); By Product; By Application; By Region; And Segment Forecasts, 2024 - 2032" gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.
The growing demand for medical equipment in healthcare and the increasing need for filtration products are set to drive market growth in the foreseeable future. Porous ceramics, characterized by tiny pores in their structure, are lightweight and have low heat capacities. They find applications in filtration, insulation, high-purity materials, and structural components.
Filtration is essential for various residential and industrial applications, spanning heating, ventilation, coffee machines, and air conditioning systems. Porous ceramic filtration products play a crucial role in purifying process liquids and separating materials in industries like chemicals, pharmaceuticals, & food production. Additionally, these products find utility in gas separation membranes due to their exceptional attributes, including high-pressure resistance, excellent permeability, durability, and reliability. These properties make porous ceramics highly effective in ensuring the quality and purity of gases and liquids in diverse industrial processes.
Porous ceramics have gained significant prominence in various industries due to their multifaceted applications. They serve as filters, absorbers, dust collectors, thermal insulators, and components in diverse fields like automobile engines and bioreactors. These ceramics exhibit favorable qualities such as robust mechanical strength, resistance to abrasion, and stability against chemicals and high temperatures. Their porous structures offer advantages like low density, lightweight properties, and minimal thermal conductivity. Moreover, their permeability, a crucial feature for applications like membranes and filtration, directly influences pressure drop, making it a vital characteristic in different industrial contexts.
Fibrous porous ceramics (FPCs), characterized by their low density, high porosity, strong shape stability, and exceptional fire resistance and thermal insulation properties, play essential roles in various sectors such as metallurgy, energy, chemicals, and aerospace. Their versatile qualities position them as promising materials for thermal protection applications due to their well-rounded properties. A newly developed EFPC (Enhanced Fibrous Porous Ceramic) with low density, high compressive stress, and low thermal conductivity was created using straightforward press filtration and subsequent heat treatment methods. In contrast to other FPCs, EFPCs exhibited impressive compression capabilities, enduring strains of up to 20% with ultimate stress as high as 0.356 MPa. Additionally, they demonstrated excellent resistance to compression fatigue, enduring 200 cycles at a strain of 15%.
