Albany, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/07/2019 -- Automotive ceramics are advanced structural ceramic materials that are used for manufacturing components for automobiles. Components made by using automotive ceramics include spark plug insulators, sensors of various kinds, and supports for catalytic converters. Ceramics possess excellent properties; therefore, they are favored by most manufacturers of automobile components. Major properties include high melting point, low electrical and thermal conductivity, high durability, and hardness and strength. In the field of automotive, ceramic materials support various important tasks to meet the new challenges faced by the automotive industry. These materials can perform effectively under extreme high temperature and pressure. Additionally, the usage of ceramic materials in automobile components leads to enhanced driving comfort, low wear, less fuel consumption, and higher driving safety. Rise in usage of automotive across the globe is the major factor driving the demand for automotive ceramics. High cost of these ceramics compared to alternatives such as metal and plastics is the key factor hampering the demand for automotive ceramics.

Ceramic materials are classified based on composition such as oxide ceramics, silicate ceramics, carbide ceramics, and nitride ceramics. Oxide ceramics are primarily used in automotive application. Thus, automotive ceramics can be segmented based on material type into zirconia oxide, aluminum oxide, aluminum titanate oxide, and others. Of these, zirconia oxide accounts for major share of the automotive ceramics market. The segment is likely to remain dominant between 2018 and 2026. Of all the material types of ceramics, the properties of zirconia oxides are the closest to those of metals. Furthermore, zirconia oxides possess high impact resistance, high flexural strength, and high chemical resistance properties. These properties associated with zirconia oxides are expected to propel the demand for zirconia oxides in the automotive ceramics market during the forecast period.
