5. Description
Invention of Aerogel is a result of combined research and development in material science and
technology. Aerogel is derived by replacement of the liquid component of the gel with a gas. It is
mesoporous solid foam; composed of an interconnected nanostructure network that exhibits
minimum 50% porosity. Though being solid, it is an extremely porous material and is lightweight.
Its low thermal conductivity feature makes it a perfect material to be used as building insulator.
Moreover, aerogel sponge can be recycled after being used in oil spills application, which signifies
its eco-friendly and cost effectiveness.
These features create options for its usage in many verticals such as oil & gas, aerospace,
healthcare, electronics, building insulation, and such others. The global aerogel market was valued
at $221.8 million in 2013 and it is estimated to reach $1,896.6 million by 2020, growing at a CAGR
of 36.4% during the forecast period (from 2014 – 2020). With ongoing advancements in innovation
of the materials and discovery of new application areas, market is expected to build more strength
with time.High production cost is the primary restraining factor for this market, as the burden
eventually slides towards the consumers.
Moreover, the industries such as petroleum, construction, power generation, etc. are vulnerable to
cross-boundary economic conditions and hence, the dependent markets such as aerogel face
sales side pressure in adverse economic conditions. On the other hand, the global aerogel market
has numerous opportunities in future. Due to its thermal protective performance, aerogel could be
embedded in firefighter’s protective gears.

7. Aerogel Market Analysis Types
Aerogel Raw Material Market Analysis
Based on raw materials, the market is segmented into silicon, carbon, aluminum and other aerogel.
In 2013, silica aerogel was the largest revenue-generating segment and this segment would
experience substantial market growth in the coming years. Silica aerogel has a wide range of
application that contributes to its market growth and they are building insulation, acoustic insulation,
oil & gas, automotive thermal insulation, chemical, cryogenics, health care, and so on. Other
aerogel is the fastest growing segment with a CAGR of 52.0% during the forecast period, largely
due to smaller base
Aerogel Form Market Analysis
Blankets, particles, blocks and panels are the major forms in which aerogel is currently being used.
In 2013, blanket constituted the largest segment in the aerogel market and is expected to
experience substantial growth in coming years. Panels segment is the fastest growing with a CAGR
of 41.0% during the forecast period. Due to its lower thermal conductivity, aerogel panels are used
in a wide range of applications such as skylights, sloped sunrooms, conservatories, greenhouses,
curtain and interior walls, walkways and canopies. In addition to that, the recently launched
polyurethane aerogel insulating panel is very thin and has an easy production process. This factor
is triggering the growth of aerogel panels segment.

8. Aerogel Market Analysis Types
Aerogel Application Market Analysis
Aerogel have a number of applications such as building insulation, oil & gas, aerospace,
automotive thermal management, health care, chemical, electronics, thermal & acoustic
insulation, and such others. In 2013, building insulation application generated the largest revenue
and this market would experience substantial market growth in coming years. Acoustic insulation
application is the fastest growing application segment at a CAGR of 46.3% during the forecast
period. The high porosity of aerogel dampens the sound velocity within it, resulting in high sound
absorption capacity. This characteristic of aerogel promotes its use as an acoustic solution.
Geography Market Analysis
Within geography markets, segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Latin
America, Middle East and Africa (LAMEA), North America was the largest revenue-generating
region market. European region is the fastest growing geographical segment with a CAGR of
38.4% during the forecast period. European governments’ green initiatives are pushing the
market growth by catalyzing the need of building and industrial insulators.

9. Aerogel Market Competitive Analysis &
High Level Analysis
Competitive Analysis
The strategies followed by key players in this market present a clear understanding about their
intensity and concentration in specific business segment. Strategic analysis of the companies
reveals that most of them are concentrating on product launch followed by collaboration and
agreement for their business expansion, to diversify their products, and to explore new areas of
applications. The agreements among the companies are focused to enhance their operations
and services. Most of the agreements are related to market expansion and development of
product for insulation application. Collaboration and joint venture were among other strategies
adopted by market payers for the expansion of their business. These strategies resulted in the
advancement of the technology and diversification of the products in the untapped areas.
High-Level Analysis
The Porter’s five-force analysis measures the competitive scenario of the aerogel market. The
bargaining power of supplier is evaluated to be moderate to high as there are few suppliers
present in the market. Though aerogel is turned out to be a better-insulation solution compared
to conventional material, manufacturers have to increase the product price to meet their
production cost, which is still at the higher side. Therefore, the high cost results high threat of
substitutes. Top investment pocket analysis evaluated building insulation as the most promising
sector for investments in future. This market possesses huge growth potential; however, cash
flow in this sector at present is comparatively low.
