Safety has always been a matter of concern during industrial activities, primarily in construction sites. More protected the workers are, lower the chances of injuries and accidents at construction sites. Head is the organ of human body that is wholly encased inside a bone. This states the importance of protecting the most vital part of the human body, the brain. Safety helmets or hard hats act as the first line of defense against such type of head injuries. Safety helmets are one of the most useful personal protective equipment to wear, protecting the brain & head from impact trauma. A well manufactured safety helmet is necessary while present at such work sites. In various industrial operational environments such as mining, construction, forestry and power, there are high chances of accidents that may result in head injuries. Personnel in work sites are exposed to numerous risks such as collision with heavy bodies, fall from high buildings, falling of heavy objects to the body and so on.

The function of engine oil in automobiles is to reduce metal-to-metal contact in order to minimize overall friction and reduce damage. In automobile, friction is one of the major sources of engine heat, which produce more wear and deform moving engine parts. The oil in automobile engine develop a skinny, lubricating film on all metal parts that lets them move smoothly over each other thus minimizing friction. Engine oil also removes small particles of dust and other impurities present in automobile's fuels. Furthermore, it seals the gap between the pistons and the cylinder walls so that the fuel combustion is more efficient. It also coats all the moving parts of automobile engine to provide a layer of protection against rust.

Automotive batteries are rechargeable batteries that supplies electric energy to automobiles, most essentially for automotive SLI (starting, lighting and ignition) system. Automotive batteries also provide power to automobile accessories such as radio, music players, air conditioners, wipers and charging plugs. Furthermore, the battery also serves as voltage stabilizer by absorbing abnormal transient voltages in vehicle electrical system. Based on the chemical composition the automotive battery market is broadly categorized in five different market segment, lithium ion (Li-ion), nickel–metal hydride (Ni-MH), nickel–cadmium (Ni-Cd), gasoline and lead-acid. The energy density per unit weight (Wh/kg) is highest in Gasoline batteries followed by Li-ion and Ni-MH and is least in Lead-Acid batteries. Lead-Acid batteries are an aging automotive battery technology. Due to its simple or mature technology coupled with fluctuating lead prices in last few years, much of the automotives batteries research is focused on drifting away from this technology.

Advanced biofuels, also known as second generation biofuels are the renewable fuels which are used as alternatives for gasoline and diesels with very low emission of the greenhouse gases. Advanced biofuels can be manufactured by using various types of biomass like, lignocellulose, non-corn starch & sugar. Advanced biofuels mostly uses the lignocellulose biomass for the production of biofuels. The increasing global consumption of energy is demanding for more renewable and sustainable sources of energy. Advanced biofuels being environment friendly will be adopted by people across the globe. It can be used in automotive as well as aviation fuel in the near future as a sustainable alternative to traditional fuels. There are very few numbers of advanced biofuel manufacturers and it is expected there would be more manufacturers over the forecast period. Huge investments are being made by companies in R&D to develop technologies to convert biomass into advanced biofuels. The global advanced biofuels market is foreseen to register a promising two digit CAGR over the period of forecast.

Split fibers are microfiber having linear density less than 1 dtex (decitex). Although production technology has been available to manufacture split fibers, powerful demand for split fibers did not start until 1980s. Toray was first company in the world to launch Micro Fibers followed by DuPont, ICI. Polypropylene is the material used to produce split fibers because of ease of processing and perfect mechanical properties. The major properties of polypropylene are stiffness, high tensile strength, lower elongation and very fibrillation length. Polypropylene also used with other olefins in form of blends to increase the fibrillation tendency. The split fibers are produced by treating bi-components filaments physical and chemical processes. Bi-components has the two types of polymers. Polyamide/ Polyester and polyester/ Polyolefines are the suitable combination for splittable bi-component filament spinning. Split fibers are produced in various steps such as tape production, stretching process, and splitting process. Applications areas of Split fibers are carpet backing fabrics, canvas over tarpaulin, sacks, bags, ropes, twine, release fabrics, filter fabrics, household textiles and reinforced fabrics.

Ferrochromium, also known as Ferrochrome, is an alloy of iron and chromium containing 50 to 70% of chromium. It is produced by electric arc melting of chromium ore and chromite. Ferrochromium is consumed extensively in the manufacturing of steel to achieve the qualities such as corrosion resistance, tensile strength, heat resistance and yield strength. The global ferrochromium market is anticipated to be in deficit to cater the increasing global steel market in near future. Ferrochromium is mostly produced in India, China, South Africa and Kazakhstan because of large chromite resources found in these countries. The global ferrochromium market is witnessing a modest single digit CAGR growth up till now and is expected to continue in future.

Stringent government regulations to equip TPMS in passenger vehicles, growing adoption of automotive safety systems and rising focus on improving fuel economy and reducing property damage as a result of accidents associated with low tire pressure are key factors expected to fuel demand for automotive TPMS over the forecast period (2016-2024).
