Fixed Capacitor Market Size will Escalate Rapidly in the Near Future

A capacitor, also known as a permittor or condenser is an electrical component with a passive two-terminal and is used to store electrical energy or charge in an electrical field. All fixed capacitors contain electrical conductors which are separated by an insulating layer, known as dielectric. Small capacitors are used in electronic devices to enhance signals between amplifier stages as part of power supply systems or as particles of turned circuits and electric filters.

Larger capacitors are used to store electric energy of electric motors, strobe lights or for power correction in AC power distribution systems. Different types of fixed capacitor includes, paper capacitor which includes paper sheet capacitor and metalized paper capacitor, plastic film capacitor which includes film-foil capacitors and metalized film capacitors, ceramic capacitor which includes ceramic disc capacitor, ceramic tubular capacitor and multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC), mica capacitor which includes stacked mica capacitor and silvered mica capacitor, electrolytic capacitor which includes aluminum electrolytic capacitor, tantalum electrolytic capacitor and niobium electrolytic capacitor and supercapacitors which includes double layer capacitors, pseudo - capacitors and hybrid capacitors.

Ceramic capacitors hold the largest market share among all the types owing to increased demand from its application areas such as tone compensation, lighting ballasts, resonant circuit, volume control RF bypass, and antenna coupling among others. It is expected to have a steady growth rate owing to increased demand in developing countries such as Thailand, India and China among others. It is closely followed by electrolytic capacitors which hold the second largest position in the global market share.


Major drivers driving the global fixed capacitors are increased demand by application areas such as high current applications for paper capacitors, A/D converters and motor run for plastic film capacitors, resonant circuit and antenna coupling for ceramic capacitors, Laser and RADAR for mica capacitors, filters and time constant circuits for electrolytic capacitors among others. Revolution in storage technology with the introduction of newer market segments such as smart grids and hybrid electric vehicles (HEV) among others is also acting as a major driver in the global fixed capacitor market. In addition, supportive government regulations, low transmission losses and need for improved stability and larger demand by niche end user segment is driving the global fixed capacitor market in a positive way. Lack of standardization and high infrastructure cost are the major factors that are restraining market growth. Rapid growth of automation and infrastructure industries is a major opportunity of the global fixed capacitor market.

Geographically, the global fixed capacitor market is divided into North America, Asia Pacific, Europe, Middle East and Africa and Latin America. Europe is the largest market of the overall fixed capacitor market. Asia Pacific and Middle East are the fastest growing markets owing to rapid industrialization and growth of end user segments. Countries such as India, Japan and China are the fastest growing countries as they are major developing countries with high growth and industrialization in these countries. The use of fixed capacitor is rapidly growing in renewable energy sector and is thus a great opportunity for these fast developing countries.


Major players of the global fixed capacitor market include Toshiba (Tokyo, Japan), ABB Ltd. (Zurich, Switzerland), Epcos AG (Munich, Germany), Alstom SA (Saint-Quain, France), Siemens Energy (Erlangen, Germany), Murata Manufacturing Co. Ltd. (Kyoto Prefecture, Japan), Advanced Capacitor Technologies, Inc. (Tokyo, Japan), Axion Power International, Inc. (Pennsylvania, U.S), EEStor Corporation (Toronto, Canada), FastCAP Systems, Inc. (Massachusetts, U.S), Graphene Energy, Inc. (Texas, U.S), Capxon International Electronic Co., Ltd. (Wanchai, Hong Kong), Kemet Corporation (South Carolina, U.S), Maxwell Technologies, Inc. (California, U.S) and Nesscap Energy, Inc. (Toronto, Canada) among others.

Mobile Printing Market: Comprehensive Evaluation Of The Market Via In-Depth Qualitative Insights

Mobile printing let end-users print documents when they are in traditional network of away from it The mobile printing enables end-users to print from their devices to any mobile printing application enabled printer located in the office, public print location or at home. Mobile printing is wireless and provides high degree of efficiency to its end-users. It uses 802.11 networking or Bluetooth to communicate and can be used on both local area network (LAN) and wide area network (WAN). Thermal based technology is being used in mobile printing to provide high quality output. There are two types of thermal printing methods which are uses in mobile printing namely direct thermal and thermal transfer. With the help of mobile printing technology the security of the device and system will be enhanced, as an individual is able to set password to prevent unauthorized access, in case of remote printing over internet.. Furthermore, mobile printing reduces need for individual printers on every d

Growing Industrialization will Influence the Oil Condition Monitoring Market Growth

Major players in the global oil condition monitoring market are Bureau Veritas, Intertek, Parker Hannifin Corporation, Castrol Limited, Spectro Analytical Instruments, General Electric Company, and Insight Services Unveils TestOil Oil is an important resource used in various machineries and engines in order to provide lubrication and for temperature regulation. After prolonged usage, oil starts to lose out on its properties and becomes less functional. Using such oil can damage the engine or machinery in which it is being used. Hence, it is necessary to keep a check on the condition of oil and replace or upgrade it after its optimum usage. Oil condition monitoring means keeping a timely check on the quality of oil that is being deployed in the system and taking the necessary steps so that the oil serves its purpose to the fullest. The monitoring also helps in increasing the efficiency of the machine, reduces downtime, and reduces cost, thereby increasing profits. Request A Sampl

Communications Electronics Cooling Systems Market Growth to be Stimulated by Brisk Technological Expansions
