DUBLIN, May 16, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --
The "Shape Memory Alloys Market by Type (Nitinol, Copper-Based, Iron-Manganese Silicon), End-Use Industry (Biomedical, Aerospace & Defense, Automotive, Consumer Electronics & Home Appliances), and Region - Global Forecast to 2022" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The shape memory alloys market is estimated at USD 10.62 Billion in 2017 and is projected to reach USD 18.97 Billion by 2022, at a CAGR of 12.3% from 2017 to 2022.
Shape memory alloys find applications in various end-use industries because of their unique properties, such as pseudo elasticity, kink resistance, biocompatibility, high fatigue strength, and high damping capability.
The shape memory alloys market has been classified on the basis of type into nitinol alloys, copper-based alloys, iron-manganese-silicon alloys, and others.
The North American region is expected to be the largest market for shape memory alloys across the globe, and the APAC shape memory alloys market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR between 2017 and 2022. The growth of the market in the region can be attributed to the increasing demand from consumer electronics & home appliances industries from countries in the APAC region, such as China, South Korea, Japan, and India.
Moreover, the availability of cheap labor in the APAC region and favorable government policies have attracted several global companies and investors to establish their production facilities in the region, thereby fueling the demand for shape memory alloys from various end-use industries, such as automotive, aerospace & defense, biomedical, and consumer, electronics & home appliances.
The major factors restraining the growth of the shape memory alloys market across the globe are the rising cost of raw materials of these alloys. Raw materials of shape memory alloys include metals, such as nickel, copper, titanium, aluminum, and other materials. The prices of nickel, chromium, molybdenum, cobalt, and other raw materials are on the rise. Moreover, the rising demand for these alloys from emerging economies in the APAC has led to a significant demand and supply imbalance.
