Summary:
Ion-conducting ceramics (ICCs) are a group of materials characterized by distinct properties related to their capability of conducting positive and negative ions.They are suitable for applications requiring the extraction and transfer of ions from a fluid or a solid to a second material, according to a particular chemical reaction, with or without generation of an electrical current.
The most common Ion-conducting ceramics are based on fluorite-type oxides, phosphates, perovskites, and garnet-type oxides. Some of these materials have been engineered to have ionic conductivity close to those of liquids.
The analyst has identified three main sectors in which Ion-conducting ceramics find current and potential applications: chemical/petrochemical/environmental, energy, and sensors and instrumentation.
This study provides an updated review of ICC technology, including materials, properties, configurations, fabrication processes, and applications. It also offers a detailed market analysis for these materials by segment (material category, material chemistry, composition, configuration, application, and region), describing technical aspects and trends that will affect future growth of this market.
As shown in the Summary Table, the global market for Ion-conducting ceramics increased from REDACTED in 2018 to REDACTED in 2019, and is estimated to reach REDACTED in 2020, corresponding to a CAGR of REDACTED during the two-year period.
Applications within the energy sector currently account for the largest share of the market, at an estimated REDACTED of the total in 2020, corresponding to REDACTED.Within this segment, Ion-conducting ceramics are being used primarily for fabrication of fuel cell and battery components.
Sales of ICCs for the energy sector are projected to rise at a CAGR of REDACTED during the 2018-2020 period.
By comparison, Ion-conducting ceramics for sensors and instrumentation represent a smaller share at REDACTED of the total, corresponding to estimated 2020 revenues of REDACTED. This segment has been expanding at a REDACTED CAGR since 2018, mainly driven by the use of ICCs for production of gas sensors.
All the remaining applications currently account for an estimated REDACTED of the total market in 2020, with revenues of REDACTED.
