根据Stratistics MRC预测,2024年全球气凝胶市场规模将达到9亿美元,预计在预测期内复合年增长率为14.8%,到2030年将达到20亿美元。
气凝胶是一种高度多孔、轻质的材料,衍生于以气体取代液体成分的凝胶。气凝胶通常被称为“冷冻烟雾”,因为它是半透明的且密度低。气凝胶是采用超临界干燥工艺製成的,该工艺可以在不崩坏凝胶结构的情况下去除凝胶中的液体。其结果是材料具有非常大的表面积、低导热性和优异的绝缘性能。
根据美国能源情报署数据,2023年全球原油产量增加1.76%至101,749,000桶/日。
凭藉卓越的绝缘性能降低能耗
气凝胶以其优异的隔热性能而闻名,通常优于传统材料。这种效率转化为减少供暖和製冷的能源使用,符合能源效率和永续建筑的全球趋势。在建设产业,随着建筑商和建筑师寻求能够提高能源效率并满足严格法规的材料,对气凝胶的需求不断增加。同样,在航太和工业应用中,气凝胶有助于降低能源成本并提高整体系统性能,从而推动市场成长。
复杂的製造工艺
气凝胶的生产需要先进的技术,例如超临界干燥和精确的化学配方,这可能会导致生产成本增加。这些复杂性限制了扩充性,并使气凝胶比传统隔热材料更难部署。此外,对专业设备和专业知识的需求给新製造商造成了进入壁垒,并增加了最终用户的气凝胶成本。这种复杂性也会导致生产时间延长,影响供应链效率并延迟产品可用性。
製造技术创新
改进的溶胶-凝胶製程、更好的超临界干燥方法和新的合成技术等进步使得以更低的成本生产更高品质的气凝胶成为可能。这些创新将使製造工艺更具可扩展性和成本效益,扩大气凝胶在各个行业的应用。例如,减少製造过程中能源消耗和废弃物的新方法可以减少气凝胶的环境足迹,并使其对具有永续性意识的市场更具吸引力。
气凝胶容易受损
气凝胶很脆弱,在机械应力下容易开裂、碎裂、断裂。这项弱点限制了其在耐久性和机械弹性很重要的环境中的应用。气凝胶的脆弱性给建筑和航太等需要坚固材料的行业带来了重大挑战。需要额外的保护和包装层来防止搬运和安装过程中的损坏,从而增加成本和复杂性。这可能会阻止潜在用户采用气凝胶,特别是在需要高耐用性和抗物理压力的应用中,从而阻碍市场成长。
COVID-19 大流行最初透过供应链中断和工业活动下降扰乱了气凝胶市场。但它也凸显了医疗保健和能源效率领域对先进材料的需求。这次疫情加剧了人们对气凝胶在个人防护设备(PPE) 和改善医疗机构隔热等方面的应用的兴趣。随着行业适应新的安全和效率标准,并更加重视永续性和创新,气凝胶市场正在復苏。
预计颗粒部分在预测期内将是最大的
这些颗粒预计在预测期内将是最大的,因为它们具有比毯状气凝胶更有效的化学和物理特性。这些产品用于多种应用,包括国防、电子基板、建筑和施工、交通内饰和天线。此外,对建构安全、可靠和节能係统的日益增长的需求正在推动市场的成长,因为由于热围护结构效率低下,用于加热和冷却的能源被浪费了。
预计隔热材料产业在预测期内复合年增长率最高
由于对节能建筑的需求以及航太和深海应用等恶劣环境中对有效隔热的需求正在刺激气凝胶的采用,隔热材料行业将在预测期内增长,预计复合年增长率最高。此外,气凝胶重量轻、表面积大,可减少传热,使其成为需要最小导热率的应用的理想选择。
由于航太、建筑、汽车、石油和天然气等最终用途行业的需求不断增加,预计北美在预测期内将占据最大的市场占有率。北美市场在气凝胶市场的应用开拓、品质和产品创新方面显示出巨大的成长潜力,而卓越的绝缘性和低导热性能正在推动需求。
由于欧盟的能源效率政策,要求德国、英国、西班牙和义大利等国家的所有建筑减少 20% 的能源消费量,预计欧洲在预测期内将保持最高的复合年增长率。此外,德国、义大利、英国和西班牙等国政府正在采取倡议来推动商业和住宅计划。
According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Aerogels Market is accounted for $0.9 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach $2.0 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 14.8% during the forecast period. Aerogels are highly porous, lightweight materials derived from gels in which the liquid component is replaced with a gas. They are often referred to as "frozen smoke" due to their translucent appearance and low density. Aerogels are created through a process called supercritical drying, which removes the liquid from the gel without collapsing its structure. This results in a material with an extremely high surface area, low thermal conductivity, and excellent insulating properties.
According to the United States Energy Information Administration, global crude oil production in 2023 increased by 1.76% and was valued at 101.749 million barrels per day.
Superior insulation, reducing energy consumption
Aerogels are renowned for their exceptional thermal insulating properties, often outperforming traditional materials. This efficiency translates into lower energy usage for heating and cooling, aligning with global trends toward energy conservation and sustainable building practices. In the construction industry, the demand for aerogels is rising as builders and architects seek materials that enhance energy efficiency and comply with stringent regulations. Similarly, in aerospace and industrial applications, aerogels help in reducing energy costs and improving overall system performance driving the growth of the market.
Intricate production processes
The production of aerogels involves sophisticated techniques such as supercritical drying and precise chemical formulations, which can lead to elevated production costs. These complexities can limit scalability and make aerogels less accessible for widespread use compared to more conventional insulation materials. Additionally, the need for specialized equipment and expertise can create barriers to entry for new manufacturers and increase the cost of aerogels for end-users. This complexity can also result in longer production times, which may impact supply chain efficiency and delay product availability.
Innovations in manufacturing techniques
Advances such as improved sol-gel processes, better supercritical drying methods, and novel synthesis techniques allow for higher quality aerogels at lower costs. These innovations make the production process more scalable and cost-effective, broadening the application of aerogels in various industries. For instance, new methods that reduce energy consumption and waste during production can lower the environmental footprint of aerogels, making them more appealing to sustainability-conscious markets.
Aerogels are susceptible to damage
Aerogels are fragile and can be prone to cracking, crumbling, or breaking under mechanical stress. This vulnerability limits their applicability in environments where durability and mechanical resilience are crucial. In industries such as construction and aerospace, where robust materials are essential, the fragile nature of aerogels can pose significant challenges. The need for additional protective layers or packaging to prevent damage during handling and installation increases costs and complexity. This can deter potential users from adopting aerogels, particularly in applications requiring high durability and resistance to physical stress hampering the growth of the market.
The COVID-19 pandemic initially disrupted the aerogels market through supply chain interruptions and reduced industrial activity. However, it also highlighted the need for advanced materials in healthcare and energy efficiency. The pandemic accelerated interest in aerogels for applications such as personal protective equipment (PPE) and improved thermal insulation in medical facilities. As industries adapt to new safety and efficiency standards, the market for aerogels is recovering, with increased focus on sustainability and innovation.

These products have a variety of applications in defense, electronic substrates, building and construction, transport interiors, and antennas. Furthermore Rising necessity toward building safe, reliable and energy-efficient system as the energy spent on heating or cooling is wasted owing to ineffective thermal envelopes is driving the market growth.
The thermal insulation segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period
The thermal insulation segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period owing to the demand for energy-efficient buildings and the need for effective insulation in extreme environments, such as in aerospace and deep-sea applications, have spurred the adoption of aerogels. Additionally, aerogels' lightweight nature and high surface area contribute to their effectiveness in reducing heat transfer, making them ideal for applications requiring minimal thermal conductivity.
North America is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period owing to increasing demand from end-use industries including aerospace, building & construction, automotive, and oil & gas. The market in North America exhibits a huge growth potential in terms of application development, quality, and product innovation for the aerogel market, whereas the demand is driven by its superior insulation and low thermal conductivity properties.
Europe is projected to hold the highest CAGR over the forecast period due to European Union's energy efficiency policy, which mandates all buildings across countries such as Germany, the UK, Spain, Italy, and others to reduce their energy consumption, by 20%.
