Superconducting materials comprise a variety of metals, ceramics, and semiconductors that are known to conduct electricity at no resistance at lower temperatures. However, with advancements in research & developments, superconducting materials are commercially used in the medical devices and electronics industry. Superconductive materials are considered to save large quantities of energy and are thus suitable for applications on electronics and power grids. Most of the superconductive materials found are metals, but certain metals can also be doped with non-metals and form superconductive materials.

The global superconducting materials market is categorized on the basis type and end-use. By type, the global superconducting materials market is categorized into high-temperature superconducting materials (HTS) and low-temperature superconducting materials (LTS). High-temperature superconducting materials (HTS) segment is anticipated to witness the fastest growth over the forecast period owing to its growing usage in medical devices. HTS is used in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy as it can yield higher magnetic fields and higher frequency operation.

By end-use, the global superconducting materials market is segmented medical, electronics and research & development. The medical segment dominated the global superconducting materials market with more than 60% of the market in 2019. The introduction of superconductors allows for higher resolution imaging because of which precise identification and location of the disease are possible. A higher prevalence of these medical conditions along with the lack of alternative medical devices is a key factor to fuel the growth of the sector.

At more than 37 percent of market share in 2019, Asia Pacific led the global consumption growth. The increasing medical industry in the area and growing production for medical devices such as MRI are key factors in boosting consumer demand.
