Transparency Market Research in its new report titled, “Lithium-ion Battery Separator Market – Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast 2018 – 2026,” provides key insights on the lithium-ion battery separator market. The TMR report anticipates that the stringent government regulations related to carbon emissions for the automotive and industrial sectors are prompting a shift toward lithium-ion batteries, which will boost the expansion of the lithium-ion battery separator market during the forecast period i.e, 2018-2026. Increasing consumption of electronics products such as smartphones and tablets is further driving demand for lithium-ion battery separator market globally.
Automotive manufactures are focusing on manufacturing vehicles that utilize electric drivetrains and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, including battery electric vehicles and hybrid electric vehicles, leading to the expansion of the lithium-ion separator market, says the report. The TMR report also discusses the market restraints such as low heat resistance of separators that leads to the melting of the separators, which causes shut down of the battery. Moreover, safety concerns associated with the use of polyolefin separators are expected to restrain the global lithium-ion battery market. To overcome restraints, the key manufacturers are increasing porosity of the membranes by using composite materials in separators, which improves the safety and reliability of the battery.
Volatility in raw material prices and high competition in the market are expected to affect profit margins of manufacturers. Lithium-ion battery separator manufacturers are expected to expand their geographical reach in order to gain customers from niche markets and decrease their dependency on third-party suppliers. Numerous regional lithium-ion battery separator vendors are offering modified solutions at lesser prices than international vendors for increasing their presence in the global lithium-ion battery separator market. New vendors that are entering the lithium-ion battery separator market find it difficult to compete with international lithium-ion battery separator vendors based on factors such as quality, features, functionalities, and services.
In terms of type, the lithium-ion battery separator market is split into releasable lithium-ion battery separator, non-releasable lithium-ion battery separator, beaded lithium-ion battery separator, push mount lithium-ion battery separator, rising hole lithium-ion battery separator, identification lithium-ion battery separator, and heat stabilized lithium-ion battery separator. From a geographical perspective, the global lithium-ion battery separator market is divided into North America, Latin America, Europe, Middle East & Africa, and Asia Pacific. Among these, TMR expects Asia Pacific to dominate the global lithium-ion battery separator market during the forecast period followed by North America. Europe and North America together constitute more than 50% of the total lithium-ion battery separator market share. The lithium-ion battery separator market in Middle East & Africa, followed by that in Latin America, is expected to expand rapidly during the forecast period.
Major players operating in the global lithium-ion battery separator market are included in this report and these are Asahi Kasei, SK Innovation, Freudenberg, Sumitomo Chemical, & Betts Corporation, Entek International, W-Scope Industries, and Ube Industries.
