 Global Linseed Oil Market is anticipated to reach USD 939 million by 2025. Linseed is also known as “Flaxseed”. These are small, tanned, brown or golden colored seeds that are the richest sources of a plant-based omega-3 fatty acids, known as alpha-linolenic acid. Linseeds are an excellent source of fiber and a good source of minerals and vitamins. They are very low in Sodium and Cholesterol. This flaxseed is helpful to improve digestive system, reduce sugar cravings, promote weight loss, and balance hormones. Linseed oils are widely used in the production of several products comprising paints, putty, gliding, floorings, wood finish, linoleum, food processing, and nutritional supplement. The high demand for these oils across several end-user businesses could be ascribed to their high polymerizing, layer formation, and bonding abilities. To render tempering, litho oil, catalyzed curing, grinding, and bonding, Linseed oil is mainly used. In addition, Linseed oil is extensively used ...

 Development in the design of medical devices such as guidewires, catheters and stents has enhanced the quality of medical concern to a big extent. However, these equipments are prepared by materials which when approaching a contact with the exterior environment can source undesirable difficulties such as blood clots, bacterial infection, and tissue trauma. Medical device coating is being utilized to lessen such sh ortcomings. Medical device coating skill utilizes UV curing or an organic solvent for the function of coating the medical equipment. Water-based or dry formulations are utilized as coating technology which facilitates solvent free dispensation. The medical equipment coatings market is determined by growing healthcare consciousness in developing and developed countries coupled with growing demand for enhanced healthcare & medical facilities. Medical device or equipment coatings are being utilized for wear & tear, to counter microbial growth and avoidance of infect...

 The global stretchable conductive material market size was valued at USD 434.7 million in 2016 and is expected to reach USD 3.4 billion by 2025, with a CAGR of 25.7%. Stretchable conductive material/devices have gained much popularity in recent years due to the emergence of new technology fields such as stretchable electronics, intelligent robotics and wearable devices. For example, advanced robots are treated with keen sensory skins so that they can interact well with humans and respond properly to the surrounding environment without external control. On the basis of conductor material, the global stretchable conductive material market is segmented into graphene, carbon nanotube, copper, and silver. To keep pace with the growing need for new technology, the hunt for new materials with higher electrical conductivity and good elasticity have emerged. Though, polymers offer good features for operations and are widely deployed in plastic electronics their widespread use is limited du...
