DUBLIN, June 9, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Fab Materials Market 2017-2021" report to their offering.

The global fab materials market to grow at a CAGR of 6.99% during the period 2017-2021.

The report covers the present scenario and the growth prospects of the global fab materials market for 2017-2021. To calculate the market size, the report presents a detailed picture of the market by way of study, synthesis, and summation of data from multiple sources. The report also includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market.

Fab materials are chemicals that are used in semiconductor fabrication processes such as etching, oxidation, deposition, and planarization. They are classified into two types, fab materials and packaging materials. Fab materials are used in different stages of the fabrication process such as etching, oxidation, deposition, and planarization, whereas packaging materials are used specifically for packaging purposes to increase the reliability of semiconductors.

One trend in the market is advent of artificial intelligence, leading to advances in semiconductors. Artificial intelligence is the way a software functions intelligently. An example of artificial intelligence is the working of a computer programmed robot similarly like human beings.

According to the report, one driver in the market is increase in use of industrial gases in semiconductor materials market. Industrial gases are used in the manufacturing of semiconductors for improving conductivity between the layers of conducting phases. The demand for industrial gases is expected to grow in the global fab materials market during the forecast period.

Further, the report states that one challenge in the market is challenging market for semiconductor manufacturing in India. With a huge number of electronics items being consumed in the Indian market, the country has a very large industry base for electronics. The electronics industry is contributing nearly 25% to India's GDP. India is reliant on other countries for the import semiconductors that are used in electronic devices as manufacturing or fabrication facilities are not developed in the country.
