According to Eswara Prasad, Team Lead, Chemicals & Materials at Allied Market Research, "Rapid advancement of nanotechnology for the enhancement of advantages offered by transparent ceramic materials is expected to offer major opportunities to the global transparent ceramics market."

Monocrystalline transparent ceramics was the largest revenue generator in 2015, as these are crystal lattices that are free from surface defects and internal pore irregularities. These advantages make it suitable for applications such as radiation detection, particle detection, X-ray devices used for security reasons, gas exploration, optics, and electronics. This segment is also projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

Increasing concern about safety of defense personals and VIPs is expected to result in replacement of conventional glass with sapphire glass, thus increasing the demand for sapphire. Sapphire is extensively used in electronics industry as a substrate material due to its insulating properties, thus driving the growth of this segment.
