According
to the current analysis of Reports and Data, the global High Purity Boehmite Market was
valued at USD 105.1 Million in 2017 and is expected to reach USD 276.3 Million
by year 2025, at a CAGR of 12.9%. The study covers High purity boehmites which
are used in applications including catalysis, refractory material, sol-gel
ceramic, polymer-additives, functional fillers and surface coating. Boehmite is
being used as a flame retardant synergist for higher temperature applications.
Benefits associated with boehmite such as high-temperature stability up to
340°C, excellent synergist to phosphor and good process ability among others.
Thus, stringent regulations coupled with the benefits of halogen-free fillers
with boehmite are projected to fuel market demand..
Boehmites
are broadly classified into three main categories, namely water-dispersible
boehmite, acid-dispersible boehmite, and neutral to alkaline dispersible
boehmites. Because of their dispersibility in various media, these products are
used as catalyst supports, coatings, polymer additives, thickeners,
refractories, abrasives, ceramics, and in various other applications.
Increasing applications of acid dispersible boehmites in artificial plate,
wires and cables, ceramic, refractory materials, and petrochemical industries
bolsters the market demand.
Further
key findings from the report suggest
- Boehmites when dispersed in water result in the formation of a
colloidal solution whose pH range from three and five. These water soluble
boehmites are used in applications such as sol-gel industrial ceramics,
paint & coating materials, rheology modifiers, polymer additives,
abrasives, refractory materials, catalyst supporter, and as detackifiers
for exhaust gas catalytic converters.
- Water dispersible boehmites dominated the market during the
forecast period. They are projected to grow at the fastest rates of 10.6%
and 13.3% by volume and value respectively during the forecast period.
- Dispersibility of boehmites is affected by a number of factors such
as quality of product used, solid content, crystallinity, water quality,
pH, ionic strength, and other formulation components.
- Neutral to alkaline dispersible boehmites are majorly used as
fillers in the development of polymer composites. They are projected to grow
at a CAGR of 11.2% from 2018 to 2025, by value.
- Boehmite is used as an integral part in lithium-ion battery
separator, due to its enhanced thermal stability. The application of
boehmites in Li-Ion Battery Separator is projected to grow at the highest
rate of 13.5%, by value during the forecast period.
- The major applications of high purity boehmites in the automotive
sectors lie in surface coating of parts and machineries. Automobile
surface, parts, and internal machineries need a surface coating to prevent
them from rusting excessively. This market is projected to reach USD 88.7
Million by 2025, growing at the highest rate of 13.4%.
- Asia Pacific region have abundant natural resources and labor thus
making it a market with huge potential. Automotive and manufacturing have
been growing rapidly due to abundance of raw material and easy
availability of low-wage skilled labor. Availability of raw materials and
a large consumer base drive this market to grow at the fastest rate of
13.8% during the forecast period.
