Piezoelectric Devices Market Drivers
The adoption of high-performance piezoelectric Sensors in the aerospace industry is leading to market expansion.
The aerospace industry employs anemometers which are a type of piezoelectric wind sensors for use in drones, satellites, balloons and autonomous aircraft. Piezoelectric Sensors are most preferred in the aerospace industry because it enables long-distance coverage, precise monitoring of wind speed & direction, low energy consumption and are lightweight. This led to a high growth rate. In August 2022, Ohio State University announced the successful development of an airfoil anemometer for smart tether systems that stabilize aircraft. Polyvinylidene fluoride due to its wide crystalline range of 35%-70-% is used to make the airfoil which reduces the aerodynamic drag and powers the anemometer from energy generated from wind pressure. The sensor integrates data processing, wireless communication and energy harvesting features.
The increased use of advanced piezoelectric actuators and transducers in space applications is leading to market growth.
Piezoelectric devices such as actuators and transducers are widely used in space applications for their smooth functioning. They are used to measure various quantities such as force and speed. They are lightweight and can replace heavy electromagnetic systems. They are employed owing to their precise monitoring, long lifespan, high compatibility and energy efficiency. This led to the expansion of the market. In July 2021, Azom in their article stated that the CheMin laboratory unit of the Curiosity Mars rover opted to use PICMA piezo actuators. NASA while working on Mars Mission tested various actuators and selected the PICMA piezo actuators owing to their demonstration of 100 billion cycles with no failure or performance loss.
Piezoelectric Devices Market Challenge
The harmful effects of lead on the environment and humans will restrict the market growth.
The lead zirconate titanate (PZT) is used in the widest range of piezoelectric applications such as medical, aerospace and consumer electronics. The toxic nature of lead is of great concern during lead mining and manufacturing, use & disposal of lead-based products. It is observed that the environment and human health is getting badly affected by exposure to lead in huge quantity. The government is setting up guidelines for use of lead-free piezoelectric devices which will restrict the market growth. In October 2021, WHO announced the world lead poising report which stated that lead exposure accounted for 0.90 million deaths and 21.7 million lost to disability and death due to long-term health effects globally. The Health Department receives blood lead test results for more than 300,000 children younger than 6 years of age every year. The main route of absorption in adults is the respiratory tract where 30–70% of inhaled lead goes into the circulatory system leading to severe health conditions and death. This will hinder the growth of the market.
