Carbon Nanotubes (CNT) Market in APAC is expected to witness high growth because of the increased end-use applications, for instance, lithium-ion batteries, used in mobile phones and laptops. The shift in the automotive industry toward clean and sustainable vehicles has led to the adoption of electric vehicles. These electric vehicles demand the use of composites and lithium-ion batteries, where CNTs find application. These factors are expected to drive the CNTs market in APAC during the forecast period. APAC has been a high-potential CNTs market against the backdrop of an overall slowdown in the global economic development. This region encompasses a diverse range of economies with different levels of economic development and a wide variety of industries including manufacturing, mining, semiconductors, electronics, oil & natural gas, textile, automobile, financial services, pharmaceutical, renewables, and telecommunication.
The spread of COVID-19 started in China in early January 2020. Within a small period, the virus spread to other Asian countries, such as Japan, India, South Korea, and Thailand, resulting in a rapidly increasing number of positive cases and deaths. The pandemic situation led national governments across APAC to announce lockdowns, leading to a decrease in traffic and temporary closure of construction & mining activities, manufacturing industries, and others. Since China is a global manufacturing hub, it was significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic; this in turn had an adverse effect on the CNTs market in APAC in 2020.
