Glaucoma surgery devices are used in the glaucoma treating procedure. These procedures include both surgical and laser therapies performed on a patient. The cases of blindness due to glaucoma is on rise across the several countries. Furthermore, the demand for both technologically as well as advanced surgical equipment has resulted in the popularity of glaucoma surgery devices industry, worldwide.

Transport plays a key role in today's world.The indispensible nature of transport creates theneed to mitigate the various problems associated with it, such as the increase in the levels of congestion and traffic, noise and emissions of different gases into the environment.Pollutants released from vehicles into the environment can be controlled by setting up emission standards. Emission standards dictate the limits of pollutants such as CO2, Sulphur Oxides (NOX and SOX), and oxides of nitrogen. These gases are emitted by automobiles and powered vehicles, industries, power plants, diesel generators etc.

The worldwide demand for CNG and LPG vehicles is skyrocketing owing to their economical nature and high efficiency as compared to traditional fuels, such as gasoline and diesel. Due to the availability of the dual fuel option, these vehicles present an attractive option vis-a-vis reduction in running costs and elimination of range-related concerns. The State and federal governments of the U.S.A are enacting laws and providing incentives to help build and sustain a market for natural gas fuel and vehicles.

Protein engineering can be defined as the modification of protein structure with recombinant DNA technology or chemical treatment to serve a desirable function and better use in medicine, industry and agriculture. Preference for protein-based drugs to non-protein-based ones along with reduced overall timeline and lower cost for drug discovery are the factors that are likely to drive the protein engineering market. High prevalence rate of lifestyle diseases along growth in funding for protein engineering. High cost of tools and instruments used in protein engineering techniques are the factors that drive the growth of the market. The demand of protein engineering developing countries coupled with preference of protein therapy over gene therapy along with the expiry of blockbuster biologics drugs in the near future. Lack of qualified researchers are the factors that offer abundant growth opportunities in the market.

Neurovascular disease is a condition caused to nervous tissues vascular structure, neurons and blood vessels that leads to serious brain damages such as stroke, and cerebral hemorrhage. The global market for central nervous system disease was accounted to approximately $78 billion in 2010. Neurovascular disease market is mainly driven by the increase in number of patients suffering from neurological diseases. According to University of California, San Francisco (USCF), there are approximately 600,000 people suffering from stroke, out of which 10% are recovered. Almost 30% patients die due to stroke, and 60% of the patients remain disabled. The cost of care for these 60% patients accounted to approximately $8 billion. Cost of neurological disease treatment is lowering the growth for neurological disease. Companies are conducting clinical trials to commercialized cost effective therapies through mergers and acquisitions.

Organic compound with formulae CH3C6H3(NCO)2 is known as Toluene Diisocyanate. Furthermore, isocyanate functional groups in Toluene Diisocyanate form urethane, when it reacts with hydroxyl. Besides this TDI or Toluene Diisocyanate is also used to boost octane in gasoline. On the other hand, some of the minor chemical applications includes the production of benzoic acid, phenol and nitrobenzene.

Tantalum is a transition metal that has high melting point and capable of resisting high corrosion. It is a lustrous and blue gray chemical element that is very rare to find. Tantalum is generally derived from hard rock mines; it can also be found in artisanak mines, tin slag and in minerals such as tantalite, columbite and coltan. Due to chemical inertness, tantalum is used as a substitute for platinum and has a wide range of application in laboratory equipment, electronic equipment, medical devices, manufacturing of super alloys, etc. Tantalum has many applications in electronics industry as it can manufacture high power resistors and high end capacitors. Tantalum oxide is also used in X-ray equipment and camera lenses. In addition, tantalum chloride is used in the production of cutting tools.

Wearable medical devices are handheld monitoring tools used in identification and monitoring of disease. Due to the Increase in chronic diseases, patients are opting home healthcare as a cost effective and efficient way of treatment, rather than hospital services. Medical device market accounted for $240 billion in 2013. However, increase in incidence of chronic diseases restricts the growth of wearable medical device market. Neurological diseases in people have increased to 7.2% in urban areas, causing hurdles for monitoring through wearable medical devices.

Lubrication of the engine parts is the vital function of an engine oil. The engine oil lubricates the engine parts for its efficient movement, thereby reducing the extent of metal contact, friction, and heat generation within the engine. In addition, cleaning & cooling the engine parts, sealing the gaps, and rust prevention are the other functions carried out by the engine oil. Engine oils are prepared by addition of substances, such as viscosity index improvers, antioxidants, metal detergents, and others to the base oil. The kind of oil used in vehicles varies depending upon the engine type.

Polymer produced from renewable feedstock such as sugarcane are termed as bio-based polyethylene. Furthermore, bio -based polyethylene is mainly used in packaging application such as bottles, carry bags etc. Besides this, its renewable characteristic makes it an environment friendly to various chemical counterparts, that are likely to witness market demand in the next five to six years.
