The global technical ceramics market accounted for $7,379.0 million in 2020 and is predicted to grow with a CAGR of 6.8%, by generating a revenue of $12,300.1 million by 2028.
Technical ceramics market is gaining huge popularity owing to its excellent physical, thermal, chemical, and electrical properties. The physical properties of technical ceramics can be attributed to its hardness, rigidity, fracture toughness, and density. For instance, technical ceramics such as alumina ceramics are 3 times harder than steel. Also, technical ceramics have low density. This indicates that considering same volume, the technical ceramic materials weigh only half the metal. Hence, technical ceramics are regarded as “super materials” of modern technology.
However, poor shear & tensile strength as well as high brittleness are estimated to restrain the technical ceramics market share during the forecast period. For instance, technical ceramics are brittle due to low ductility and presence of unique atomic bonds. The highly organized bonding structure of technical ceramics that consists of only ionic and covalent bonds makes them brittle.
The growing applications of technical ceramics in electrical components such as insulators, resistors, mounting brackets, and backing materials are estimated to drive the technical ceramics market size. In addition, the technical ceramics are also used for laser positioning mirrors & packaging, protection unit, furnace radiant heaters, fuel cell membranes, hot gas filtration, diesel engine filters, fuel injector parts, and others. Some of the widely used technical ceramics are alumina ceramics and zirconia ceramics.
According to regional analysis, the Asia-Pacific technical ceramics market accounted for $2,684.5 million in 2020 and is predicted to grow with a CAGR of 7.4% in the projected timeframe.
Technical ceramics also known as advanced ceramics or engineered ceramics are defined as inorganic solids that are main classes of materials such as metals, polymers, and composites. Technical ceramics exhibit high performance owing to extremely high purities as metal compounds are combined with carbides, oxides, and nitrides. Hence, technical ceramics boost the performance, increase the product lifespan & efficiency as well as reduce overall maintenance cost. Technical ceramics have high thermal conductivity due to which they transfer heat efficiently compared to metals.
The global crisis caused by COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant challenges for functioning of various businesses. The growing health and safety concerns among public led to shutdown of various industries. The technical ceramics market also experienced negative impact owing to shutdown of manufacturing and production units. Also, drastic decline in demand for technical ceramics from electronics and automotive sectors has led to significant revenue losses. The supply-chain disruptions due to restriction on the movement of goods and disruptions in the transportation have further widened the demand and supply gap. Also, the import-export was greatly affected due to unprecedented lockdown imposed across various countries and closed borders. All these factors have resulted in significant revenue losses and decline in technical ceramics market demand during the pandemic.
Various initiatives implemented by the technical ceramics manufacturers to ensure safety, heath, and well-being of employees and community is helping the society to recover from the chaotic situation. For instance, Morgan Advanced Materials, the well-known technical ceramics manufacturer has implemented various measures at their facilities such as physical changes to the layout, social distancing norms, cleaning, and sanitization protocols to contain the spread of COVID-19 virus.
Technical ceramics have superior properties such as high hardness, excellent compressive strength, low density, good wear resistance, and superior electrical properties. Also, these materials are thermally conductive, insulative, chemically inert, and have high corrosion resistance. For instance, excellent wear resistance of technical ceramics helps them to withstand extreme high temperatures while retaining the mechanical and electrical properties. The technical ceramics offer consistent performance and reliability compared to metals & polymers that compromise their properties over time. Also, technical ceramics are excellent electric insulators due to which they have high dielectric permittivity which is important for capacitors and resonators. Also, these materials have ultra-high temperature ability due to which they can operate in extreme temperatures in excess of 1750°C. Also, technical ceramics are chemically very stable which means they have low chemical solubility that makes them highly resistant to corrosion which is anticipated to drive the market demand.

Technical ceramics hold application across various industries such as electronics, automotive, transportation, and others. However, high customization requirements increase the cost of technical ceramics and can make them brittle. This is because the conventional machining techniques such as milling, turning, and drilling are difficult to perform on these materials owing to their brittle nature, high strength, hardness, and resistance to creep. These factors are estimated to restrain technical ceramics market growth in the upcoming years.
The emerging applications of technical ceramics in deep sea exploration, space development, supercomputers, new energy sources, and others are anticipated to propel the technical ceramics market demand in the upcoming years. For instance, silicon nitride, the popular technical ceramic material, is used in deep sea earthquake observation owing to its corrosion resistance, compressive strength, and low specific density that make it ideal for pressure-resistant containers used in submarines. Technical ceramics play a vital role in space exploration owing to their superior insulating properties, strength, corrosion resistance, and high heat resistance. Also, technical ceramics are used in supercomputers since the coefficient of thermal expansion is close to the coefficient of mounting units.
