mHealth is an abbreviation for mobile health, a term used for the practice of medicine and public health supported by mobile devices. The term is most commonly used in reference to using mobile communication devices such as mobile phones, tablets, computers and PDAs for health services and information. mHealth helps to reduce healthcare expenditure by limiting the number of hospital visits and also reduces re-admissions. In developing countries, mobile connectivity with healthcare professionals helps in decreasing the bridge between healthcare professionals and patients. Increasing geriatric population coupled with rising prevalence of chronic diseases are the key factors supporting the growth of the mHealth monitoring and diagnostic devices market globally.

The welding industry comprises welding equipment, welding consumables and welding services. Welding consumables account for a significant share of the welding industry compared to welding equipment and welding services. The welding consumables industry has been experiencing a shift from electrodes towards solid wires and flux-cored wires, due to higher production efficiency of the latter. Advantages such as high deposition rates are likely to boost demand for flux-cored wires, especially in Europe.

Membrane separation is a technology used to separate materials via pores or minute gaps in the molecular arrangement without adding any chemicals. Major membrane processes used for water treatment are microfiltration, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration and reverse osmosis. The increasing demand for clean processed water and mandatory government regulation to provide clean drinking water is propelling the water processing industry at present. Membrane separation is one of the most popular methods used for cleaning water. Shifting from chemical to physical treatments of water is a major driver as chemical treatments are perceived as an environmentally unclean technology with associated disposal costs. Additional awareness of water scarcity has influenced the demand for water reuse in water stressed areas.

The Asia-Pacific facial care market continues to grow owing to the widening horizon of distribution network and channels. Men's grooming products are in high demand in recent years with increasing number of men globally having incorporated grooming into their routine. In addition, the growing popularity of multi-functional products and the increasing demand for fairness products are the other factors driving the growth of the facial care products in the Asia-Pacific region.

Personal care packaging refers to packaging of a wide range of products such as shampoos, conditioners, cosmetics, soaps, shower gels, body lotions, body creams, oils and toiletries among others. These products can be packaged in a wide range of materials such as plastics, paper, metals and cloth among others in the shape of boxes, bottles, pumps, sprays and other enclosures. Growing demand for skin care and hair care products is anticipated to be one of the key factors driving the personal care packaging market during the forecast period owing to increasing awareness regarding healthy skin and hair among consumers. Consumption of skin and hair care products has increased on account of factors such as hectic lifestyle and pollution damage human health and skin. This in turn, has boosted the personal care packaging market.

With technological advancements in several developing countries across the globe, home automation solutions are evolving continuously. Modern day home automation solutions utilize high end digital technology for providing better performance and efficiency. Home automation systems refer to all such systems, whether used as a single application or as integrated solutions that are used to automate processes. They are electricity powered and are manually controlled (such as turning on the AC, dimming lights, managing entrance gate and cameras, operating smart appliances in a house, and so on.

Photoresists are light-sensitive materials that are primarily used in fabrication and packaging of semiconductors, integrated circuits, flat panel displays and printed circuit boards. Photoresists play an important role in photolithography and photo-patterning process. Photoresists consist of resin or polymer, solvent and photo-sensitizer. These are segmented into positive and negative photoresists based on developing option. Photoresists are applied on the surface of a wafer and further exposed to light of pre-determined wavelength. Photoresist ancillaries are supporting materials that are used to improve the efficiency and resolution of the photolithography process. These are used right from the start of the process such as adhesion promotion of photoresists to wafer substrate in order to develop photoresists to remove excessive photoresists after the developer treatment.
