Advanced
functional materials are a class of energy-efficient materials that contribute
to sustainability. They are known to consume less energy during manufacture,
use, and recycling, and therefore provide the benefit of a lower carbon
footprint. There are five major types of advanced functional materials, which
are used in low carbon applications: advanced functional composites, advanced
functional ceramics, advanced energy materials, nanomaterials, and conductive
polymers. The major end-user categories of these materials include industries
such as Electrical and Electronics, Chemicals, Transportation, Aerospace, and
Healthcare. Analysts forecast the Global Advanced
Functional Materials market will grow at a CAGR of 6.39 percent over the
period 2013-2018.
