North America Conductive Inks Market
- Report Code: CO 1002
- Publish Date: Upcoming
A conductive ink (CI) is a thermoplastic viscous paste that conducts electricity by inculcating conductive materials such as silver and copper. This ink comprises binder, conductor, solvent, and surfactants used during its manufacturing process. The North America conductive inks market was valued at $291.6 million in 2012, and is projected to reach $378.8 million by 2018, growing at a CAGR of 5.5 % from 2013. Photovoltaic is the major application of conductive inks in North America market, closely followed by membrane switches.
The binder helps to clutch together all conductive materials in the ink and provides a strong support to the product. It is particularly used in the applications which require high reliability and flexibility. The conductor is another important part of the ink which allows the passage of electricity. The different types of conductors used in conductive inks are silver, copper, nickel, aluminum, and so on. Similarly, the solvent is used for the formation of solution, whereas the surfactants help in uniform mixing of the ink. Conductive inks have various applications such as photovoltaic, membrane switches, automotive, RFID/smart packaging, bio-sensors, printed circuit boards, and other applications.
The North American chemical industry is a significant part of the country’s economy. U.S. is the largest chemical producer in North America, followed by Mexico, and Canada. In the past, most of North America’s chemical industry growth was driven by domestic sales, but these days, the country’s growth is shared dependent on both the domestic and the export market. Silver flakes conductive inks have huge demand in North America conductive inks market, on account of increasing usage in end-user industries.
The key countries covered in North America conductive inks market are U.S., Canada, and Others.
