Market Findings
$86.7 million in 2011$1,986.5 million in 2018
Carbon zinc (Well-established high revenue segment)Lithium-ion (Emerging high-growth potential segment)
During 2011, transdermal patches, stationery gifts, and sensors were widely used. During forecast period, usage in RFID tags, flexible displays are likely to increase
Carbon zinc is inexpensive, in the range of less than 50 cents, while lithium-ion is in the range of 50 cents to 1 dollar
Currently the United States, Western European countries, Japan, Korea, are major players; transdermal patches are a major market in Southeast Asian countries
Lithium-ion thin-film batteries (TFBs) are poised for significant growth during forecast period, with potential to use in electric vehicles and energy harvesting in PV panels
