The worldwide market for笑气is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 6.2% between 2018 and 2026. Increasing demand for nitrous oxide from a wide range of industries especially from the medical sector is expected to drive its market.It’s a colorless gas with a sweet odor, also named as laughing gas and is non-flammable. It is a highly gas material that is produced from the thermal decomposition of ammonium nitrate.Considerable pervasiveness of several types of chronic diseases and increasing number of geriatric population especially in Europe and North America are anticipated to be some potential implications for the product to experience higher demand in the next five to six years. Few of the non-medical applications of the product include semiconductors, food processing & packaging and premium automobiles among the major end-uses.
Nitrous oxide is mainly used as an inhalation anesthetic product in medicines. Administration of this product is primarily accompanied by simultaneous administration of a volatile agent such as ethrane, halothane, etc.This product is also used in high end super cars which also plays a major contributor to its demand. It is an excellent oxidizer that can support combustion to its maximum potential which no other gas can and hence has no substitute in this regard.Nitrous oxide itself is inflammable but is an excellent oxidizer that provides additional oxygen for the extra fuel to burn hence producing more power. It is used in combustion engines as the oxygen present in nitrous oxide causes combustion of fuels more rapidly. Nitrous oxide is also used in high tech thin film industries of LCD and semiconductor manufacturing.
其主要应用构成与硅前体或硅烷的反应,用于生产高质量的氧化膜,该氧化膜在微电子晶体管中作为电绝缘体施加。此外,该产品已越来越多地使用,以制造薄填充氧化物,其中几种其他元素包括铝,钛,铟,镁和锆。它还用于半导体薄膜的选择性蚀刻。
Theglobal nitrous oxide industry基于其应用类型和区域段进行分段。应用部门进一步分叉进入医疗,半导体,汽车和食品和饮料。医疗是2015年至2017年最大的申请部门。它被用作多种治疗适应症的麻醉剂。剧烈疼痛的情况,它是第一种氧气氧气含量的应用药物之一。此外,在短期手术的条件下,如焚烧敷料或伤口缝合和清除,这是广泛使用的。在牙齿提取或其他简短程序期间的牙科手术中,氧化亚氮是一种不可替代剂。它偶尔也用作腹腔镜检查和冷冻剂作为制冷剂的吹入剂。
半导体行业让另一个有前途的部门留意越来越多的产品需求。它的反应较小,因此比氧气更介绍。由于这些功能的优点,它用于控制薄膜中的氧气量,以减少侧氧化反应,并选择性地蚀刻一个薄膜,同时允许其他薄膜保持。在目前的行业场景中,氧化亚氧化物对电子设备的需求平均每年约为10,000公吨,预计将增加预测期。
Asia Pacific was the largest regional market in 2017. Increasing demand from the medical industry which has been growing in proportional to the region’s rising economy is anticipated to be the primary source for it. Even the electronics manufacturing industry of China, Japan, South Korea and even India has been a major contributor to Asia Pacific’s demand for this gas.
Moreover, presence of or increasing availability of cheap but qualified and highly skilled labor in the region has attracted many of the premium car manufacturers to set up their manufacturing facilities for economies of scale. The rapidly developing and expanding automobile manufacturing industry in this region also has and will further augment demand for nitrous oxide over the forecast period.
