SiC fibers are manufactured with the help of pyrolysis of organosilicon polymers, such as polycarbosilane. Another method for the production of SiC fibers is the use of the CVD (chemical vapor deposition) method. High strength along with a lightweight, stability over high temperature, and resistance from oxidation and corrosion make it an ideal material to be across various ends use industries such as aerospace and defense, power and energy, chemical, automotive, and others. The rising focus towards the advancement of the performance of commercial and military aircraft is continuously driving the demand for high performance structural materials in the aerospace industry. Composite materials have gained acceptance for aviation and aerospace applications owing to exceptional strength coupled with superior physical properties and stiffness-to-density ratios. The aerospace industry is considered as the prime user of SiC fibers. The use of SiC fibers is important for application dealing in extreme mechanical loads at high temperatures (up to 1900 K in the air) and cannot be met out with any metallic material or intermetallic materials. Another most significant application field of silicon carbide composites relates to the manufacturing of such materials in spacecraft, which could possess lightweight and thermo-mechanical properties at the same time and could bear high temperatures. They are also used to manufacture thruster nozzles, reusable rocket nozzles, thermal protection systems, and turbo pump components for space vehicles. The growing application of silicon carbide fibers reinforced composites is motivating the manufacturers to replace the metal parts in aircraft with the fibers so as to boost the fuel efficiency of aircraft engines and used in the manufacturing of engines, thermal protection systems, and turbopumps. Companies are looking forward to expanding the application base of SiC fibers in the aerospace industry. For instance, in March 2017, it was reported that General Electric had adopted SiC fibers-based CMCs to produce its newgeneration jetliner engines so as to improve fuel efficiency. Furthermore, SiC fibers is also being demanded by the power generation industry. They are used to manufacture land-based gas turbine engines, radiation blankets, furnaces, and components, and other materials in the power and energy generation industry.

The existing stock for commercial buildings is responsible for over 24% of greenhouse gas emissions and account for over 41% of the total primary electricity use, with a share of around 57% getting dedicated to maintaining heat or cooling in the buildings. These numbers are increasing YoY, due to the rising aboriginal and migrated population and improving living standards. The region is likely to be confronted with an energy shortage in the future, and unfavorable climate changes are quite evident.

The growth of the barrier film market is augmented by the huge demand for high-performance films, owing to the rising barrier requirements in multiple end-user industries. Improvements, particularly in processing technologies, are expected to support the increasing use of barrier films for suitable applications and low-cost production. Packaging applications for food are expected to account for a major share of the barrier film market. This can be attributed to the rising trend of down-gauging, which has supported the shift from rigid to flexible packaging. Strong incentives from retailers, producers, and consumers to increase product shelf life and reduce wastage of packaging material, along with the rising preference for fresh foods, such as meat, fruits, vegetables, and seafood, have increased the demand for barrier films. Flexible packaging formats, such as retort pouches, bags, and trays with wraps, are helping consumers with busy lifestyles and single-households and meeting their need for convenient packaging. The above-stated trends for food packaging are driven by the increasing dominance of large retailers in developed and developing economies where processed and packaged food, with shelf life extension and cost control, is preferred.

Ceramic tiles are multipurpose products that have varied application across different geographies and end user industries. There are several driving factors for the growth in the market across the world. Most prominent is the increasing construction activities, supported by the growing need for housing. In the developing economies, like the countries in the Middle East and Asia-Pacific, rapid urbanization and rise in the disposable incomes also contribute significantly to the market dynamics. The key materials used to produce ceramic tiles include - feldspar, alumina, zircon sand, silica, and kaolin. These tiles find a major application in residential and commercial construction. Natural mineral, namely, feldspar, is used to lower the firing temperature while manufacturing these tiles. The final product is the flat and thin tiles that have wear resistance, thermal protection, and corrosion resistance properties. They are used for roofing of walls, floors, roofs, tabletops, and bathrooms among other applications.

本篇报告旨在对目前碳纤维的生产技术进行一个客观、整体研 究：主要对目前国内市场上的碳纤维、碳纤维相关生产术、国 内生产技术发展情况和行业存在的问题进行解析。

Antioxidants are additives used during plastic production. They are added to the plastic to eliminate degradation processes caused by thermo-mechanical as well as thermo-oxidative conditions. Antioxidants help in extending the life cycle of plastic, increase color deterioration, offer tensile strength and elongation, reduced impact resistance, cracking, and other surface deterioration. Primary antioxidants and secondary antioxidants are the two major categories of plastic antioxidants, and plastic made from primary type is often combined with secondary to produce thermally stable plastic products. In addition, a combination of primary and secondary antioxidants provides additional processing stability during plastic production.

Ceramic Fiber is a small-dimension filament or thread, which is composed of a ceramic material, primarily alumina and silica. It is used in lightweight units for electrical, sound, and thermal insulation. Most ceramic Fiber contain equal proportion of alumina and silica. Some nonoxide specialty Fibers such as silicon nitride, silicon carbide, and boron nitride have been also produced. The physical and chemical properties of the ceramic Fiber vary with the composition. Most ceramic Fibers are white to cream in color and are available in several product form. The high temperature resistance ceramic boards and blankets are used in the development of ship for general heat containment and to reduce the risk of spread of fires. Ceramic Fiber products are used in metal industry, commercial & domestic appliances, interior of furnaces, space vehicles, etc. Based on end use industry of ceramic Fiber, the market is segmented into iron & steel, refining & petrochemical, power generation, aluminum, and others. In 2018, refining & petrochemical held a larger share of 33.6% of the Asia Pacific ceramic Fiber market. In petroleum industry, the ceramic Fiber is used in fired heaters, fluid catalytic cracking units, and boilers. Ceramic Fiber is used as insulation material in various end-use industries.
