Global Market For Nanotechnology In Paper Manufacturing To Be Worth $3.7 Billion In 2015

Wellesley, MA | Posted on December 1st, 2010

The largest segment of the market, made up of nanoparticles: clay, is expected to increase at a 5-year CAGR of 1.5%, from nearly $1.9 billion in 2010 to more than $2 billion in 2015.

The second-largest segment, nanostarch, is expected to reach a value of nearly $780 million in 2015. The market in 2010 is estimated at $671 million. Thus, the 5-year CAGR is projected to be 3.1%.

The smallest segment of the market, nanosensors, will have the highest 5-year CAGR, at 432.9%. It is projected to increase from virtually nothing in 2010 to $4.3 million in 2015.

Larger segments of the market include coatings (functional and barrier) which will rise from $611 million in 2010 to $675 million in 2010, for a 5-year CAGR of 2%; and nanoparticles: powder, which will increase from $67 million in 2010 to $187 million in 2015, for a CAGR of 22.7%

This report summarizes current technology platforms, research initiatives, and possible applications of nanotechnology in various types and grades of paper.
