Nanotechnology in Automotive and Transportation industry - Trends and Forecasts 2015-2020
Nanotechnology will impact in all areas of automotive and transportation industry, providing a variety of tools to build the system for the twenty-first century. For example, advances in nanotechnology may make possible carbon-based fibres which are 100x stronger than steel, at only one-sixth the weight. Automobile manufacturers are eager on using such technologies that provide cost effective improvements in vehicle performance. Among the key applications are nanocoatings of metallic surfaces to achieve super-hardening, low friction, and enhanced corrosion protection for vehicles; and “smart” materials that monitor and assess their own status and repair any defects resulting from fatigue, fire, etc. New materials designed to have superior properties (stronger, lighter) using materials with nanoscale dimensions will lead to faster, cheaper, and safer transportation. Further, new photonic nanodevices could replace the heavy and costly radio frequency transmission equipment on board aircraft, ships, or satellites or be exploited for inexpensive remote control of vehicles.
This report provides information about the various challenges and opportunities in nanotechnology for automotive and transportation industry. It covers the size of current market as well as forecasts the market for the period from 2015 – 2020. Major players in the market have been identified and profiled.
