Sapphire crystal growth equipment market overview

Sapphire crystal material is an important basic material in modern industry. It has excellent optical properties, mechanical properties and chemical stability, high strength, hardness and corrosion resistance. It can work at a high temperature of nearly 2,000℃, and has good transmittance in ultraviolet, visible, infrared and microwave bands. It is widely used in LED substrate materials, consumer electronics, smart wearable devices and other fields.

LED substrate material is an important application of sapphire, and because of its outstanding advantages in infrared light penetration and scratch resistance, sapphire also has a broad market in consumer electronics applications.

With the development of LED industry and consumer electronics industry becoming mature, the industry capacity is generally improved, and the manufacturing cost and selling price of sapphire material are declining. Meanwhile, some manufacturers have already had more stock in the early stage, so the relationship between supply and demand and market size are relatively stable.
