my country’s advanced ceramics market is gradually growing in size with a larger number of companies

Advanced ceramics mainly refer to ceramics with excellent performance that are different from traditional ceramics in terms of technology and raw materials. They use ultra-fine, high-purity and other raw materials, are designed through composition and structure, adopt precise measurement, and use new preparation technologies. Compared with traditional ceramics, advanced ceramics have the advantages of high temperature resistance, wear resistance, corrosion resistance and excellent mechanical properties.

With the gradual advancement of production technology, the types of advanced ceramics have gradually become richer, with various classification methods based on different classification standards. According to different chemical compositions, advanced ceramics can be divided into silicide ceramics, carbide ceramics, sulfide ceramics, sulfide ceramics, fluoride ceramics, nitride ceramics, boride ceramics, etc.; according to different product properties, advanced ceramics can be divided into advanced Structural ceramics, advanced functional ceramics, etc. Among them, advanced structural ceramics can be subdivided into high-strength ceramics, corrosion-resistant ceramics, superhard ceramics, high-temperature ceramics, etc.; advanced functional ceramics can be subdivided into magnetic ceramics, electronic ceramics, bioceramics, superconducting ceramics, etc. From the perspective of market segments, advanced functional ceramics have become the largest segment of advanced ceramics, accounting for the largest share of the overall market, accounting for 71.9%; followed by advanced structural ceramics, accounting for 28.1% of the market.

The application fields of advanced ceramics in my country are very wide, and they are mostly used in military industry, communications, semiconductors, industrial structural parts, consumer electronics, automobiles, new energy and other fields. In recent years, my country’s automobile industry production technology has gradually improved, production costs have gradually dropped, and its prices have gradually been accepted by consumers. Coupled with the gradual upgrading of the consumption power of our country’s residents, the penetration rate of automobiles has gradually increased, and production and sales have gradually increased. According to data released by the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, in 2022, my country’s automobile production and sales will complete 27.021 million units and 26.864 million units respectively, a year-on-year increase of 3.4% and 2.1% respectively. As an important material for automotive parts, the market for advanced ceramics has also fluctuated.

According to the “my country Advanced Ceramic Materials Industry Market Monitoring and Future Development Prospects Research Report 2023-2028” released by the Industrial Research Center , with the continuous advancement of information technologies such as the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, 5G, and cloud computing in our country, they are increasingly integrated with all walks of life in society. Smart home appliances, consumer electronics and other industries are developing rapidly, and the demand for advanced ceramics is gradually growing. Against this background, the scale of my country’s advanced ceramics market is gradually expanding. In 2022, the size of my country’s advanced ceramics market will be 97.03 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 12.4%.

Industry analysts said that there are a large number of companies in my country’s advanced ceramics market and the market competition is fierce. Because foreign advanced ceramic companies started earlier, have more advanced production technology and higher product quality, they occupy most of the market in my country. Domestic advanced ceramics Advanced ceramics started late, and most enterprises’ production technology is relatively backward. The core technology is mainly imported from foreign cash and enterprises, and the product added value is low and the market competitiveness is weak. However, with the gradual rise of my country’s advanced ceramic companies, they continue to increase investment in research and development, product quality gradually improves, and corporate competitiveness gradually increases. Domestic substitution is expected to be achieved in the future.
