London, UK -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/24/2015 -- Silver powder and flakes are used by converting it to conductive pastes and adhesives. The high conductivity of silver in the ink form maximize its performance. Silver powder and flakes is largely used in the electronics industry. These powders are also used in adhesives and sealants. The rise in these markets is expected to increase the demand for silver powder and flakes, thus helping the global silver powder and flakes market to grow. In the global silver powder and flakes market, rise in demand for the hybrid silver coated materials will be seen in the near future. Also, the use of silver nanoparticles for antibacterial use will increase the demand for silver powder and flakes. This increase in the demand is anticipated to project a positive growth on the global silver powder and flakes market. Having said that, the global silver powder and flakes market is expected to witness double digit growth in the forecast period.

Drivers and restraints

The growing electronics industry is projected to be a major driving factor for the global silver powder and flakes market. Also, the demand for silver powder and flakes is expected to increase due to the rise in the adhesives and sealants industry. It is anticipated that, during the forecast period there will be a shift of trend towards use of hybrid materials that will integrate the use of less conductive and less expensive silver powder and flakes. The growing automotive industry is also anticipated to be a major driving factor for the global silver powder and flakes market. Though the silver powder and flakes market had been buffeted by rise in silver prices, there are opportunities for the key players who are able to provide customized high quality silver powder and flakes. Also, the shift of trend towards the use of silver nano powders and flakes is expected to be a major restraining factor for the global silver powder and flakes market.
