This study covers the global non-halogenated flame retardant market for polymers. Flame retardants are used as additives in polymers to increase fire resistance in case of ignition or fire accidents. Owing to the high risk of fire accidents related with high usage of polymers in end-use industries such as construction, electrical and transportation, non-halogenated flame retardants are expected to have high demand in the near future. The non-halogenated flame retardant market is segmented based on product types aluminum hydroxide (ATH), phosphorus based non-halogenated flame retardants and others (including nitrogen based flame retardants, magnesium hydroxide and others).

The liquefied natural gas market report by Transparency Market Research provides an in-depth analysis of the global liquefied natural gas industry. The report segments the market on the basis of end-users and regions, and also provide forecasts and estimates for each end-user. The report analyzes demand and supply characteristics of the market by providing a detailed forecast and analysis of volume and revenue for the period from 2013 to 2019.

The growth of the global smart grid market is mainly driven by the increased global demand for power supplemented by higher transmission and distribution losses. Increased policy and regulatory support by governments are likely to play a key role in the rise in demand for smart grid market over the forecast period. The growing need for increased reliability, quality, and the secure power and the increased energy efficiency achieved through grid optimization are expected to augment the global demand for the smart grid market. Lack of interoperability and open standard are likely to restrain the growth in the global smart grid market. However, prepayment of electricity is anticipated to create a promising global market for the smart grid technologies.

Rise in population and industrialization in BRICS nation will drive the major growth of the industrial gases market. Growth in associated industries such as transportation, food and beverages, metal fabrication and chemical manufacturing are some of the other drivers for the global industrial gases market. However, high costs of transportation and storage of industrial gases is expected to be a key challenge for market participants.

Innovations and product development, enhanced product properties such as strength and durability, growth and advancement of the global automotive industry are the major factors that have been driving the market for technical textiles. The major drawbacks faced by the market are higher cost of finished products affecting end user industry pricing characteristics and huge fragmentation of the existing market.

Pigments are compounds that impart colors by transmitting or reflecting absorbed light of selected wavelengths. Besides coloration properties, pigments help to improve several functional features such as hiding power, opacity, transparency, light fastness, and durability. Pigments are widely employed in various end-users industries such as paints & coatings, printing inks, plastics, construction materials, personal care, and paper. Synthetic pigments are broadly classified into three major product segments: inorganic, organic, and specialty pigments. Inorganic pigments dominated the pigments market in the recent past. In terms of volume. Asia Pacific accounted for the largest share of the pigments market in 2014, followed by North America and Europe. Asia Pacific is expected to be the largest consumer of pigments during the forecast period.

Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) films are manufactured from PVA resins along with vinyl acetate monomer (VAM) which is increasingly finding use in various water soluble applications such as detergents and agrochemical packaging. PVA films are also used for polarizer applications in LCD panels, sunglasses and optical filters. Increasing governmental initiatives to support green packaging owing to biodegradable nature of PVA films is one of the major factors driving the market growth. However, the volatility in vinyl acetate monomer (VAM) prices is acting as one of the major factors inhibiting the market growth. Companies are conducting extensive research in order to explore novel applications for PVA films especially, for food applications. Thus, is it expected to create new avenues to the players in the market.

Geothermal energy is used for two primary purposes: direct use and power generation. This report deals exclusively with the use of geothermal energy for power generation purposes. Geothermal energy is renewable in nature; however, it displays features of conventional power generation methods due to high capacity factors and ability to supply base load. Low emissions and non-reliance on fossil fuels are major drivers for the industry. Strong regulatory and policy framework in numerous countries across the world would foster and sustain development in the sector in the long-term.

Solar trackers are utilized to move photovoltaic panels toward the sun to utilize more sunlight. They enable solar modules to remain in the best position to accumulate maximum energy from the sun. The application of tracking technology allows solar panels to follow the movement of the sun and increase electricity production as compared to a stationary array. Solar trackers are attached to solar panels to adjust their positioning against the daily passage of the sun throughout the year as the weather and seasons change.
