Phase Change Materials Market Share: By Type
Based on the type, the market is segmented as Inorganic PCM, Organic PCM, and Bio-based PCM. The inorganic PCM is expected to lead the market during the forecast period, owing to its good thermal conductivity, high latent heat of fusion, non-flammability, and low cost. Inorganic PCMs are extensively used in thermal energy storage, HVAC, cold chain & packaging, and refrigeration & equipment.
Phase Change Materials Market Share: By Application Type
Based on the application type, the PCM market is segmented as building & construction, HVAC, cold chain & packaging, thermal energy storage, refrigeration & equipment, electronics, textiles, and others. The building & construction segment is expected to remain the largest segment during the forecast period, owing to stringent regulations towards greenhouse gas emission and increasing investment for low carbon buildings, especially in North America and Europe.
Phase Change Materials Market Share: By Region
In terms of regions, Europe is expected to remain the largest market for phase change materials during the forecast period. Stringent regulation regarding usage and handling of temperature-sensitive goods, implementation of strict building codes, and the European Union directives to improve efficiency in buildings are the major factors that have led to the dominance of Europe in the global PCM market.
Some of the major players in the phase change materials market are Honeywell Electronic Materials, Inc., Laird PLC., Sasol Limited, Croda International PLC., Entropy Solutions LLC, Microtek Laboratories Inc., Pluss Advanced Technologies Pvt. Ltd., Phase Change Energy Solutions Inc., Rubitherm Technologies GmbH, Phase Change Materials Products Ltd., Outlast Technologies LLC, Henkel AG & Company, KGaA, and Cold Chain Technologies, Inc.
Market Scope & Segmentation
Phase Change Materials are materials that are capable of changing their phase or form from solid to liquid and vice versa. These are useful in storing heat so that it can be used later on when needed. When they absorb, they melt and they again solidify when they release heat. These can be stored in different insulated buffers so that they can be used for upcoming needs.
Phase Change Materials can be of several types with their own advantages and disadvantages. These materials can be used in a wide number of areas such as construction, textiles, refrigeration, and many others.
