Driving factor
Increasing Utilization in Satellites to Drive Growth
Xenon is extensively used for propulsion in satellites due to its light weight compared to other alternatives. The high demand for satellites backed by an increasing number of space programs is anticipated to drive the xenon market growth. For instance, SpaceX has planned to initiate its SpaceX Axiom Space-1 under which the company will carry a private crew to the International Space Station (ISS). Such programs are predicted to strengthen the demand for the gas. In addition, the increasing application in manufacturing semiconductors is estimated to further enhance the market growth. However, xenon is labeled as an asphyxiant, which means it can be injurious to health if inhaled excessively. This may hinder growth during the forecast period.
Regional Insights
Flourishing Consumer Electronics Industry to Help Asia Pacific Gain Prominence
Asia Pacific is estimated to dominate the market backed by the flourishing consumer electronics industry in the region. The high volume production of semiconductors in China and India is predicted to expand the xenon market share in the region. In addition, various upcoming satellite programs by space agencies from China, Japan, India, and other nations are estimated to further strengthen regional growth. For instance, the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) launched its GSAT 20 communication satellite in 2020. The region earned revenue of USD 73.38 Million in 2020.
The market in Europe is projected to exhibit considerable growth during the forthcoming years. One of the leading factors driving the market growth in the region is the ongoing research study on dark matter, which is being conducted in Italy. The gas is utilized in catching the passing weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) during the experiment. Hence the market will witness significant demand in the region.
Competitive Landscape
Finding New Applications to Help Key Players Expand their Businesses
The market is primarily driven by high applications of this gas in two main industries: space and electronics. Industry leaders in these fields are supporting the market growth by coming up with new opportunities. For instance, in October 2018, Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. launched 7LPP, a 7-nanometer node that is integrated with EUV lithography technology. The company has leveraged the properties of xenon for the production of the new chip.
