Automatic Polarimeter Market Forecast, Trend Analysis & Competition Tracking - Global Market Insights 2018 to 2026

Automatic Polarimeter Market – Introduction

A polarimeter is a chemical instrument used to determine the optical activity of a substance. Certain substances are optically active and rotate polarized light when passed through them. The angle by which polarized light rotates is known as the angle of rotation or observed angle.

Leveraging the principle, industries use polarimeters to ascertain the identity, quality, and concentration of substances in mixtures. Additionally, the observed angle can also be used in predicting the outcome of conversions and reactions. Owing to its functionality, polarimeters are used in an assortment of industries such as food and beverages, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and agriculture.

Remote Sensing to Emerge as a Vital Revenue Pocket for Automatic Polarimeters

The automatic polarimeter market is likely to register steady growth on the back of its bolstering demand in remote sensing applications. Weather forecast and potential use of polarimeters in defense applications are expected to be at the forefront of leveraging the remote sensing capabilities of the device.

Advancements such as the development of dual polarization process are expected to fuel widespread adoption of automatic polarimeters in weather forecast with the technique enabling forecasters to identify precipitation type, detecting aviation hazards such as bats and tornado debris while also aiding in identifying precipitation type.

Defense organizations are increasingly investing in the development of effective polarimetric imaging systems to help identify targets in scenarios where the temperature difference between bodies and surroundings is not substantial enough. The development is expected to fuel uptake of the devices in defense applications and uphold automatic polarimeter market growth.

Manufacturers Focusing on Miniaturization of Automatic Polarimeters     

The bulky and expensive nature of current automatic polarimeters is limiting their widespread adoption with end-user industries demanding more compact devices at affordable costs. With demands for compact automatic polarimeters expected to surge in industries such as F&B, pharmaceuticals, healthcare, remote sensing, and astronomy, manufacturers operating in the automatic polarimeter market are funneling investments into the development of hand-held devices which can effectively serve the required purpose. A recent development complementing the surge in the demand for compact automatic polarimeters was the development of a solid-state, full-Stokes polarimeter integrated on a silicon chip. Bolstering advancements in the area are expected to open lucrative opportunities in the automatic polarimeter market.

Intensifying Clinical Trials in the Pharmaceutical Industry to Fuel Uptake

Accelerating rate of patent expirations coupled with burgeoning demand for specialty drugs is opening new opportunities in the pharmaceuticals market. Consequentially, companies are continuously investing heavily in novel drug development in order to capitalize on the surge in demand. Polarimeters are vital to drug development with the optical properties of numerous pharmacological agents crucial to determining the impact, taste, smell, and properties of medications. With clinical trials on the rise, demand for polarimeters in pharmaceutical industries is expected to surge at a healthy rate in the foreseeable future.

Costly Measurement Setup Continues to Pose a Daunting Challenge

Effective measurement of light polarization requires polarimeters to measure and analyze multiple complex components simultaneously. In order to accurately and precisely measure the state of polarization of light, manufacturers are using complex and expensive setups. However, with competition in different end-user industries on the rise, manufacturers in the automatic polarimeter market are under immense pressure for manufacturing affordable and accurate devices. Additionally, the use of polarimeters in mobile applications introduces noise in measurements making it unstable. The errors induced due to noise in the measurement of the state of polarization of light can have adverse implications for end-user industries which is a key factor expected to limit automatic polarimeter market growth.

Automatic Polarimeter Market – Competitive Landscape

• With the demand for automatic polarimeters in aerosol detection for environmental protection and weather forecasting on the rise, researchers at the Netherlands Space Institute developed a multi-angle polarimeter for monitoring the concentration of aerosols in the air and predicting their impact on the cooling or heating of the earth.
