Market Dynamics
Driver: Increasing R&D activities
A large number of universities, research institutes, and companies are focusing on the R&D of graphene sheet to make it commercialize and create cost-effective manufacturing technology for graphene sheet. Continuous R&D for graphene sheet more efficient and flexible is going on for new applications. China is making good progress in the commercial use of graphene sheet as well as R&D. Further, several government organizations are taking initiatives to push the commercial and technological potential of graphene sheet at a high level. The European Union launched the Graphene Flagship program and invested more than USD 1.2 billion, and the South Korean government launched a six-year graphene development program worth USD 300 Thousand.
Restraints: Difficulty in bulk production of graphene sheet
The bulk production of good quality graphene sheet is still a hindering factor for all graphene sheet manufacturers. The manufacturing process of graphene sheet is time-consuming as well as cost intensive. Hence, up scaling the graphene sheet production and maintaining the quality at the same time is challenging for the manufacturers. In case of any defects on the graphene monolayer carbon network during the manufacturing process, the properties of graphene sheet such as thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity, transparency, and impermeability are altered, which hamper the quality of graphene sheet. These factors impact the bulk production of graphene sheet, which resulted in higher cost of production.
Opportunities: Increasing demand for graphene sheet from energy storage applications in China
China is the world’s largest producer of batteries for automotive vehicles and commercial use. It held a significant share in Lithium-ion battery production in 2021. Electric vehicle production is expected to increase rapidly in the next five years, as the government of China is focusing on reducing pollution and providing subsidies and incentives to electric vehicles. The increasing demand for batteries for electric vehicles is providing huge opportunities for graphene sheet manufacturers in China.
Challenges: High production cost
The production of graphene sheet is associated with the number of carbon layers and quality of graphene. The monolayer is the most expensive type of graphene sheet and rated highest on quality parameters. The monolayer graphene is produced with the CVD manufacturing process, which enables small-scale manufacturing, which further increases the cost. The high cost of graphene sheet is a concern in price-sensitive applications despite better properties than conventional materials.
“Automotive & transportation was the largest end-use industry for graphene sheet market in 2021”
The automotive & transportation segment accounted for the largest share of the global graphene sheet market, in 2021. The demand for graphene sheet in the automotive & transportation application is expected to increase mainly because of the rise in electric vehicle production across the world.
“Asia Pacific was the largest market for graphene sheet”
Asia Pacific is the largest graphene sheet market and is projected to register the highest CAGR, both in terms of value and volume, between 2022 and 2030. Economic growth in the region has led to high internal trade and domestic transportation of commodities and supplies. China and Japan are some of the largest automobile producers globally. These countries are competing to manufacture technologically advanced vehicles and are investing heavily in their research and development to develop high-precision parts. Furthermore, the boom of the electric vehicles market is further fueling the demand for automotive parts. This has increased the number of on-road commercial vehicles, thus driving the graphene sheet market.
