Ceramic Matrix Composites Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Type ( Silicon Carbide Reinforced Silicon Carbide (SIC/SIC), Carbon Reinforced Carbon (C/C), Oxide-Oxide (OX/OX), Silicon Carbide and Carbon (SIC/C) ), By End-use ( Defense & Aerospace, Automotive, Energy & Power, Industrial, Other ) and regional Forecast, 2024-2032

Ceramic Matrix Composites also called as CMC, is a group of composite materials which consist of ceramic fibers, suspended in ceramic matrix of any ceramic material. Carbon fibers and carbon is also considered as ceramic material. It exhibits properties like crack resistance, corrosion stability, elongation, thermal shock resistance, dynamical load properties, and anisotropic properties.it has wide range of applications in the aerospace & defense, automotive, energy & power, and industrial applications.

Rise in demand for components of heat shield system, combustion chamber, turbine blades, of space vehicles aerospace and defense sector is driving the market. CMC overcome some of the major shortcomings of conventional ceramics like limited shock resistance, brittle failure, and low fracture durability. CMCs in gas turbines allow higher turbine inlet temperatures, which increases turbine efficiency. Additionally, the lifetime of CMCs is longer than the metals which frequently deform after a definite period. Availability of new technologies and increasing exposure to benefits of CMC among the consumer is propelling the CMC market.

However, manufacturing of CMC involves use of high-end machines & equipment. High production cost as compared to other alternatives like metals and alloys is likely to hamper the growth of market.
