Electronic ceramics are ceramics designed for use in the electronics industry, serving as electrical or magnetic materials that generate an electric charge when subjected to pressure or an electric field. These materials are specifically engineered for applications requiring unique properties not naturally found and are processed under stringent conditions.
The primary types of electronic ceramics include monolithic ceramics, ceramic matrix composites, and ceramic coatings. Monolithic electronic ceramics are characterized by features like fabrication and polycrystalline microstructure, enhancing the material's lifespan and reliability. These ceramics find application in various industries such as electronics, automotive, medical, and aerospace & defense. They are used in the manufacturing of diverse components, including capacitors, data storage devices, optoelectronic devices, actuators & sensors, and power distribution devices.

This growth has resulted in increased production of auto components and electrical ceramics utilized in vehicles. An analysis of the Indian auto components industry in February 2022 revealed a 25% increase in the market, from USD 4.1 billion (Rs. 31,116 crores) in 2020-21 to USD 5.3 billion (Rs. 38,895 crores) in the first half of 2021-22. Consequently, the rising demand for auto components is poised to propel the automotive sector, driving an increased need for electronic ceramics.
The expanding electronics industry is expected to be a key driver of growth in the electronics ceramics market. Spanning a diverse range of enterprises and activities, the electronics industry encompasses the research, development, design, production, and distribution of electronic components, devices, and systems. Electronic ceramics, versatile materials crucial to the functionality and reliability of electronic devices, are utilized in various applications, from consumer electronics to industrial and aerospace equipment. In the third quarter of 2022, Lenovo, a major PC manufacturer, outpaced competitors with approximately 17 million laptop shipments, surpassing HP, Dell, and Apple. This underscores the significant role of electronic ceramics in meeting the demands of the expanding electronics industry.
Technological innovation emerges as a prominent trend in the electronic ceramics market, with major companies prioritizing the development of technologically advanced products to meet the rapidly growing industry demand and enhance their market positions. These companies are incorporating next-generation electronic ceramics technologies, including piezoelectric material, circuit carriers, actuators, sensors, and fiber optics, to provide mechanical, thermal, and chemical stability to electronic equipment. For instance, in March 2023, Kyocera Corporation, a Japan-based ceramics and electronics manufacturer, launched cutting-edge high-speed ceramic optoelectronic device substrates and packaging at OFC. These innovations include high-speed ceramic packages enabling a 200g baud rate, high-mechanical-reliability ceramics for co-packaged optics, high-speed TO can packages, and other fiber-optic products, showcasing the industry's commitment to technological advancement.
Prominent companies in the electronics ceramics market are strategically focusing on expanding their product lines, exemplified by the introduction of new brands, to better cater to the needs of their existing consumers. The launch of a new brand is a comprehensive process involving the presentation of a new company, product, or service to the market. This process includes the development of a communication plan to convey the brand's narrative, value, and services to potential customers. In September 2022, DuPont de Nemours, Inc., a U.S.-based manufacturing company specializing in electronic ceramics and chemicals, unveiled its new brand, Micromax. This brand encompasses products previously marketed under the Microcircuit and Component Materials label. Micromax products find applications in diverse electronic fields, including automobile passive parts, 5G communications, medical devices, and consumer goods. Micromax aims to establish itself as a market leader in electronic thick film inks, pastes, and ceramic tapes. Importantly, the introduction of the Micromax brand does not alter DuPont's product quality, customer service excellence, or extensive industry knowledge.
In October 2022, Du-Co Ceramics Company, another U.S.-based electronics ceramics firm, executed the acquisition of Mitronics Products for an undisclosed amount. This strategic move expands Du-Co Ceramics' capability to serve its clients by incorporating Mitronics Products' product lines into the components it already produces and globally distributes. Mitronics Products, a long-standing customer of Du-Co Ceramics, is a U.S.-based manufacturer specializing in ceramic-to-metal assemblies and electric ceramic insulators.
