Isostatic Graphite Market – Latest Trends, Forecast, and Opportunity Analysis
The Global Isostatic Graphite Market: Highlights
Isostatic graphite, also called as Cold Isostatic Pressing (CIP), is a
carbon material owning unique physical properties. The name Isostatic Graphite
is derived from the method of production. During the forming process the
material is isostatically pressed with equal pressure from every side,
therefore, the material shows typically an isotropic property behavior. It
is an ultra-fine grain graphite best suited for those applications which
require high mechanical properties. This differs from extruded graphite process
which pushes through a die and has varying properties in different grain
directions. It can be manufactured as blocks and rounds in various sizes as per
your needs.
Isostatic graphite’s features include good machinability, strong thermal
stability, low, and excellent electrical conductivity. It is used in many
industries, such as Photovoltaic, semiconductor, nuclear, metal, and many more.
Japanese companies own majority of the global isostatic graphite market
and are expected to remain the leading companies in the near future as well.
Most of the leading isostatic graphite manufacturers are continuously expanding
their geographical footprint to tap the regional potential.
Asia-Pacific region is the major consumer of the isostatic
graphites worldwide wherein China is the leading consumer and has been growing
at a double digit CAGR during the last ten years. SGL, Mersen, and Toyo Tanso
have set up manufacturing plants in China to serve the local market. Despite
capacity expansion in China by local as well as international players, some
portion of the demand is still met through import.
The global isostatic graphite market offers a healthy growth opportunity
during the forecast period of 2016 to 2021. Solar Photovoltaic, Semiconductor,
and EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining) are expected to drive the growth of
the isostatic graphite market during the forecast period.
Asia-Pacific is expected to remain the dominant region in the global
isostatic graphite market during the forecast period. Emerging Asian countries,
such as China and India are fueling the growth in the Asia-Pacific region and
are likely to do so over the next five years.
The key isostatic graphite manufactures are Baofeng Five-star Graphite,
Datong Xincheng New Material, IBIDEN Co, GrafTech International Holdings Inc,
Mersen Group, Nippon Graphite Industries, Co, SGL Carbon SE, Tokai Carbon Co,
and Toyo Tanso. New product development, capacity expansion, and regional
expansion are the key strategies adopted by the key players to gain competitive
edge in the market.
