Antioxidants are very important for immune defense and health of animals. In order to improve the oxidative stability, and thus, increase the shelf-life of meat, antioxidants are being added to animal feeds. Vitamin E is an essential component of livestock diets. Vitamin E cannot be synthesized by animals, which is why the use of tocopherol is increasing in animal diets. An adequate amount of tocopherol is essential in animal nutrition to protect them from malnutrition and the pathogen. It helps to improve the quality of meat and eggs. In addition, it controls the oxidative stability in the animal's body, and therefore, reduces the unpleasant smell and taste, especially in beef and pork. Moreover, vitamin E is fat-soluble and is incorporated into the lipid fraction of cell membranes as an effective antioxidant defense mechanism. There is also an increase in demand for tocopherols in livestock, more so in the developing regions of Asia, Africa, and Latin America.

Automation is the major trend that is driving the software development in the freight and logistics space, and transportation management systems are rapidly adopting this approach. Automation, coupled with artificial intelligence, has made it easy to build a routing guide that ensures the freight moves with the best, and not just the cheapest, carrier for the job. TMS adoption rate is comparatively on the higher side with the large enterprises, owing to the sheer volume of product variety and services offered. However, the increasing adoption of cloud (SaaS) across various industries is reducing the high initial cost, in turn, providing an opportunity for adoption of TMS by small enterprises as well.

Specialty chemicals are the materials used on the basis of their performance or function. They are sometimes referred as performance chemicals or formulation chemicals.

Synthetic diamonds are widely used in superabrasive tools, such as grinding wheels, and cutting, drilling, and dressing tools, for manufacturing products in the automotive, medical, aerospace, and electronics industries. Sharp edge retention and higher strength of superabrasive tools provide higher productivity and better performance, when compared to other manufacturing tools. • In the aerospace industry, super abrasives are widely used, owing to the characteristics, such as hardness, longevity, resistance to abnormal temperatures, and chemical inertness. The application of super abrasive include tooling and grinding solutions for turbine engines and grinding tools for aero structural compounds and air frame. • The aerospace industry is experiencing a stagnant growth, owing to the strengthening of passenger travel demand and rising global military expenditure for the air force industry. Backlog of new aircraft orders and the constant resurgence of business aircraft may further add to the growth of the aerospace industry.

Rising awareness toward predictive maintenance is driving the market, owing to the emergence of Industry 4.0 and sophisticated ‘smarter’ technologies. According to Accenture, predictive maintenance of assets is one matching area of focus, which saves up to 12% over scheduled repairs, reducing overall maintenance costs up to 30% and eliminating breakdowns up to 70%. A breakdown in critical equipment is costly to manufacturers in terms of repairs, as well as the loss of productivity and downtime. Approximately 98% of organizations stated that a single hour of downtime costs over USD 100,000. Ensuring that all equipment function optimally, remains an essential priority for manufacturers, many of whom are turning to predictive maintenance-enabling technology and solutions on their production floor. For pneumatics systems, it means a whole new level of condition and remote monitoring, to the extent that maintenance personnel can determine whether some obstacles have occurred or not.
