M2 - Wed Jun 04, 3:36AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/tbbf2d/membrane) has announced the addition of the "Global Membrane Technology (Pharmaceutical, Biopharma and Life Sciences) Market Report 2014-2019" report to their offering. The report provides an in-depth analysis of estimation of the membrane technology market in pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and life sciences industries from 2014 to 2019, considering 2013 as the base year for calculation. Additionally, data pertaining to current market dynamics, including market drivers, restraints, trends and recent developments, has been provided in the report. The global membrane technology market in pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and life sciences industries is categorized on the bases of type of filtration, processes and geography. The type of processes comprise ultrafiltration, microfiltration, nanofiltration, reverse osmosis and chromatography. Membrane technology is widely used in various development phases of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and life sciences industries. Membrane technology includes membrane applications from laboratory drug research to large scale pharmaceutical manufacturing. Applications of membrane technology in pharmaceutical, life sciences and biopharmaceutical industries include lab-scale DNA and protein separation and analysis, drug screening, cell culturing and examination, and virus removal. Single-use disposable technique for biopharmaceuticals and stringent environmental regulations are some of the key factors driving demand for membrane technology in pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and life sciences industries. Strict quality and safety standards in pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical industries, including Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), have created a demand for membrane technology in pharmaceutical, biopharma and life sciences industry. On the other hand, high capital and operational cost impede the growth of the membrane technology market in pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and life sciences industries. Membrane fouling is one of the major concerns with membrane technology; it decreases membrane efficiency. Membrane filters need to be replaced or washed every three to four years to remove foulants. However, in the absence of an alternate and more efficient filtration technology, demand for membrane technology in pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and life sciences industries is expected to witness healthy growth.

United States Automotive Adhesives Market Forecast and Opportunities, 2019 Featuring Henkel, Dow Chemical Company and H.B. Fuller
M2 - Thu May 29, 9:52AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/nmjxzb/united_states) has announced the addition of the "United States Automotive Adhesives Market Forecast and Opportunities, 2019" report to their offering. According to United States Automotive Adhesives Market Forecast & Opportunities, 2019, the automotive adhesives market in the US is expected to grow at a CAGR of about 5% during 2014-19. The demand for automotive adhesives is expected to increase significantly in the automotive sector, due to rising government concerns related to reducing emissions from ICE (Internal Combustion Engine) by switching to electric vehicles (EVs). As EVs contain heavy batteries for storing energy, their fuel efficiency has to be balanced using lightweight materials, which in turn increases automotive adhesive consumption. This trend is further supported by tax exemptions for use or promotion of electric vehicles. Some of the major companies in the US involved in manufacturing and supplying automotive adhesives to OEMs include Henkel, Dow Chemical Company and H.B. Fuller. Government concerns regarding environmental impact of motor vehicles is driving automotive manufacturers in the US to downsize vehicle weight in order to improve fuel economy and reduce harmful emissions. The government has drafted regulations pertaining to fuel economy and emission standards, which has to be followed by every vehicle manufacturer by 2025. Weight reduction of vehicles can be achieved by using lightweight materials such as plastics, composites, high strength steel and aluminum. As composites are generally built of different materials, their joining is not possible using traditional techniques like welding or screwing. For this purpose, specially formulated structural adhesives have to be applied, which not only bind composites of similar or dissimilar substrates, but also provide structural integrity to the vehicle body frame. Major automotive adhesives used to achieve these objectives include epoxy, polyurethane or acrylic polymer-based. United States Automotive Adhesives Market Forecast & Opportunities, 2019 report elaborates following aspects related to automotive adhesives market in the United States: - US Automotive Adhesives Market Size, Share & Forecast - Segmental Analysis - Epoxy, Polyurethane, Acrylic, etc. - Policy & Regulatory Landscape - Changing Market Trends & Emerging Opportunities - Competitive Landscape &Strategic Recommendations Key Topics Covered: 1.
