Company Names
Magnetic materials are used all over the world for a variety of purposes. Some materials have the property to retain different shapes when they are exposed to an alternating magnetic field. These materials can be used in mechanical and electrical engineering to create anisotropic, non-permanent magnetic structures which are very important in the aerospace industry. The materials also perform well in resisting impact, heat, and even heat damage. The materials also provide an efficient energy source through their ability to store electrical energy and convert it directly into mechanical energy.
Market Dynamics:
Rapid growth in the automotive industry is driving growth of the magnetic materials market. Increasing penetration of electric vehicles is also fostering growth of the market. Growing usage of electrical &electronics is further projected to augment growth of the magnetic materials market. According to European Union, in 2019, electric car registrations were close to 550 000 units, having reached 300 000 units in 2018. This represents an increase from 2 to 3.5 % of total car registrations. The uptake of electric vans also increased, from 0.8 % of total registrations in 2018 to 1.3 % in 2019.
On the other hand, the high investment required for R&D is expected to hinder growth of the magnetic materials market.
