Marketing trends

Textiles. A unique combination of desirable quaUties and low cost accounts for the demand for acetate ia textiles. In the United States, acetate and triacetate fibers are used ia tricot-knitting and woven constmctions, with each accounting for approximately half the total volume. This distribution changes slightly according to market trends. The main markets are women s apparel, eg, dresses, blouses, lingerie, robes, housecoats, ribbons, and decorative household appHcations, eg, draperies, bedspreads, and ensembles. Acetate has replaced rayon filament ia liner fabrics for men s suits and has been evaluated for nonwoven fabrics (79—81). 

Market Trends of the 1990s. The United States spice market can be divided into three sectors based on appHcation industrial, ie, food processing and manufacture institutional, ie, restaurants, hospitals, schools, and military and retail. The food manufacturers and institutions account for almost 65% of U.S. spice usage, an increase from about 40% in the 1980s. Retail food outiets make up most of the remainder. 

The commercial value of a clay deposit depends on market trends, competitive materials, transportation faciflties, new machinery and processes, and labor and fuel costs. Naturally exposed outcrops, geological area and stmcture maps, aerial photographs, hand and power auger drills, core drills, earth resistivity, and shallow seismic methods are used ia exploration for clays (32). Clays are mined primarily by open-pit operation, including hydraulic extraction however, underground mining is also practiced.

The recent introduction of inexpensive desktop computers has allowed their extensive use throughout many companies. The standard spreadsheet packages which accompany these machines enables the above data to be laid out in an interactive way, so that what if situations can be explored at the planning stage and the implications of, for example, market trends in the food industry, to be examined over the long term for its effect on the plant layout. The model may include a factor to take into account improvements in technology and working practices in both the office and factory.

Current market trends indicate a gaining momentum of corrosion and temperature-resistant MEMS devices for the use in mass market applications. Silicon-on-insulator material properties make way for a whole new range of uses and applications while being available in sufficiently large quantities to satisfy large volume production requirements. A breakthrough of these devices can be expected through automotive applications, if they can meet the price pressure.

Additives used in the production of PVC are discussed with reference to the increasing pressure from environmental campaigners. In particular heat stabilisers and plasticisers are examined with data from the European Stabiliser Producers Association regarding market trends, materials substitution, and toxicity issues. 

For joint action in innovation systems and especially also for outlining the framework conditions by the political actors, it is expedient to understand the itmovation systems. The model developed in the scope of the project serves to create a systematic hnk between the framework conditions, the influential factors and the correlations between the participants. The various contributory parties can better assess their own options for influence, existing resistance to new ideas, possible coahtions or the significance of market trends, and can approach change processes in a more purposeful way as a resrrlt of this.
