KEY INDUSTRY INSIGHTS

The global transparent ceramics market is seeing remarkable growth, with a significant CAGR forecasted throughout the period, 2024-2032.


Transparent ceramics belong to the advanced class of ceramics, which has a combination of mechanical & transmission properties. They can be used in a wide range of optically transparent materials. They are used in laser amplifiers, laser cutting tools, optical & optoelectronic components, scintillators, optical switches, optical domes, optical fiber for guided light wave transmission, IR heat seeking devices for missile guidance systems, and night vision. They exhibit many physical and mechanical properties such as lightweight nature, thermal stability, resistance to thermal shock, low heat storage, and anti-corrosion.

High strength, durability, lightweight nature, and resistance to heat and chemicals make transparent ceramics suitable for aerospace & defense applications. Increasing need from the military sector for high strength material, which can transmit light around the visible and mid infrared region of the spectrum for transparent armor is driving the market. Moreover, increasing expenditure of several countries on their defense systems is likely to create a positive impact on the transparent ceramics industry.

With rising demand for advanced ammunition and defense equipment, transparent ceramics are in high demand. For instance, single-crystal sapphire is the current material of choice for high-speed infrared-guided missile domes.


  • At ambient temperature, sapphire's optical transmission does not extend throughout the entire mid-infrared region (3–5 m), but it begins to drop down at wavelengths larger than about 4.5 m. While sapphire is stronger than other existing mid-range infrared dome materials at room temperature, it begins to deteriorate above 600°C.

  • Researchers at the International Advanced Research Center for Powder Metallurgy and New Materials (ARCI) created magnesium aluminate spinel ceramics using colloidal processing and the HIP technique, which involves applying temperature and pressure simultaneously. Spinel is gaining popularity as a transparent ceramic due to its exceptional optical qualities of transmission – more than 75% in the visible region and more than 80% in the infrared. It also has 200 megapascal strength and hardness of more than 13 gigapascal.


Impact of COVID-19 on the Transparent Ceramics Market


Due to halt in production activities owing to COVID-19 restrictions imposed by governments, the transparent ceramics market growth experienced a downturn. Due to restrictions on production and trade activities as well as irregularity in supply chain for raw materials, the market was heavily impacted.
