Porous material is an organic solid phase composite material, where the pore gaps are usually filled with a liquid or gas fluid. Porous materials are found in vibration suppression, energy management, heat insulation, fluid filtration, and sound absorption. The high porous solid composites offer high structural rigidity and low-density mass. Porous solids are structural bodies in nature, including in wood and bone. Pumice stone, cork, and sponges are some examples of porous materials.
The porous material market has witnessed significant growth over the past few years. The major factor that drives the growth of this market includes rise in demand for medical structural instrument and electronics devices. Moreover, increase in demand for other applications such as filtration, material science, mechanics, and others is projected to boost the market growth in the coming years. However, high cost of materials and implementation of stringent regulations for the production of porous material due to its toxicity hamper the growth of the market. Moreover, technological advancements that reduce toxicity while production of these materials are anticipated to provide lucrative growth opportunities for the market.
The porous material market is segmented on the basis of type, application, and region. Based on type, the market is divided into porous fibers, porous plastic, porous ceramics, and other. On the basis of application, it is classified into medical, chemical & material, electronics, biomaterials, and other. Based on region, the market is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.
Some of the main market players operating in the porous material market are Porous Materials Inc., Filtration Group Corporation, SINTEF, de Cavis AG, Elpa, Porvair Filtration Group, 3M, ADMA Products, Inc., NanoPore Incorporated, and Mitsui Chemicals.
