Superconducting Materials Market size worth over $18 billion by 2030

  • Published Date: July 27, 2022

According to a new research report by Global Market Insights Inc., the Superconducting Materials Market size is forecast to exceed USD 18 billion by 2030.
 

The superconducting material conducts electric current smoothly and shows negligible resistance when cooled below a critical temperature. These materials have specific electric and magnetic properties, allowing them to offer zero electrical resistance when cooled below threshold or critical temperature. The threshold temperature varies in different materials according to their properties. The materials have their applications in various fields such as medical, electronics, research & development, and others.
 

One pitfall for the superconducting materials industry is the volatility in raw material prices. The earth metals are the major raw materials used in the market. The raw materials include yttrium, niobium, strontium, barium, magnesium, and boron. The extraction and the sourcing of some of these raw materials are impacted by various factors, such as regional regulation, trade wars, supply chain disruption, etc., which have led to volatility in raw material prices. Rare-earth materials have major applications in permanent magnets used in wind energy turbines, computer equipment, electric & hybrid cars, etc. The price volatility is largely affected by rare-earth material users as they are highly dependent on the product due to the non-availability of the substitute product.
