(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) Global Aerogel demand is anticipated to be valued at USD 2.4 billion by the end of 2025, forecast to grow at a CAGR of 17% to be valued at USD 11.5 billion from 2025 to 2035. Due to technical advancements in the area, North America led the worldwide market, followed by Asia Pacific.

NEWARK, Del, Feb. 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The global aerogel market is expected to reach USD 2.4 billion by the end of 2025. With growing demand for lightweight and high-performance insulation materials, the market is projected to expand at a CAGR of 17% from 2025 to 2035, reaching USD 11.5 billion by 2035. Factors driving this growth include increasing applications in construction, automotive, aerospace, and oil & gas industries due to aerogels' superior thermal resistance, lightweight properties, and sustainability benefits. Rising investments in energy-efficient solutions and advancements in aerogel technology are further fueling market expansion.

The market is likely to be driven by the fast development of aerogel for high-temperature insulation, mainly in the oil and gas industry, due to its low thermal conductivity. The global pandemic in 2020 had a significant influence on the market. The mandated lockdowns in several places caused a delay in new insulation construction in the oil and gas industry, resulting in market growth that was constrained

Which are Some Prominent Drivers Spearheading Aerogel Market Growth?

Polyurethane foam , mineral wool, rock wool, and stone wool are examples of traditional insulating materials with downsides. To obtain the requisite R-value, for example, extensive layers of these materials are required, resulting in the loss of valuable floor space in new construction. It's considerably more difficult to add significant levels of insulation to historic structures since the extra layers alter the house's aesthetic look.

As a result, aerogels are expected to be an appropriate substitute for existing insulating materials in new structures to meet energy criteria established by various regulatory authorities and to prevent structural compromises. Aerogel materials can save a significant amount of energy that would otherwise be required for heating and cooling because of their poor thermal conductivity and thinness. Because of its qualities, such as low weight and poor heat conductivity, aerogels are utilized for outerwear in cold climates. They're also commonly employed in industrial applications.

What are the Challenges Faced by the Aerogel Industry?

One of the primary factors limiting the growth of the aerogel market is the high cost of manufacture. The high cost of raw materials (particularly alkoxide-based precursor materials), complex process methods (solvent exchange stages, long reaction periods restricted by diffusion), and the installation of relatively modest production capacity of enterprises all contribute to the high cost of silica aerogels. Aerogel materials require a lot of research and development, which makes the whole process expensive.

Aerogel materials are made via synthetic processes, which are less adaptable. Aerogel manufacture needs a complex facility due to the extremely specialized production procedures. Supercritical drying is the most costly phase in the aerogel production process.
