Say for instance, advancements in nanotechnology has led to emergence of a new class of engineered fluids, that are mainly produced by the amalgamation of nanomaterials in conventional heat transfer fluids. The so dubbed nanofluid, took heat transfer fluid industry space by storm when its unrivaled combination of unique benefits came to light. The nanoparticles that are uniformly distributed in the base fluid are claimed to improve the thermal conductivity by increasing the convection and conduction coefficients, thereby ensuring a more efficient heat transfer. Much efforts have been already taken to exploit the potential opportunities of nanoparticle – enhanced thermal fluids with regards to heat transfer. Recently, a research team led by Siberian Federal University in collaboration with Spanish scholars have proclaimed that TiO2 (titanium oxide) nanofluids could outpace other analogous materials in heat transfer applications that are presently in solar power stations. Amidst the backdrop of a scenario where renowned giants have been striving to bring innovative products in the foreground, titanium oxide nanofluid would certainly prove to be remunerative for the overall heat transfer fluid market.

Worldwide, heat transfer fluid industry is quite consolidated with renowned biggies procuring almost three fourths of the global share. Statistics depict that the presence of Dow Chemicals is rather dominant, covering almost 28% of the marketplace in 2016. While industry giants seek immense growth in the years ahead, a wide array of daunting challenges might hinder the business proliferation to some extent. Volatile crude oil price trends and stringent government regulations with regards to the toxicity of product are two major constraints that heat transfer fluid market players are presently dealing with. Despite these challenges, market investors are making big bets in research activities in a more progressive approach, vividly coherent from the agreements, mergers & acquisitions, product launches that are quite common in heat transfer fluid market ground. In terms of profitability, Global Market Insights, Inc. forecasts overall heat transfer fluid industry to exceed a valuation of USD 4 billion by 2024.
