鉻市場:2023-2028年全球行業趨勢、佔有率、規模、成長、機會和預測Chromium Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2023-2028 |
2022年,全球鉻市場規模達到149億美元。展望未來,IMARC Group預計,到2028年,市場規模將達到178億美元,在2023-2028年期間呈現2.9%的成長率(CAGR)。作為微量營養素和營養補充劑的利用率不斷提高,對耐火材料添加劑的需求不斷增加,以及在製造汽車排氣系統方面的應用不斷增加,這些都是推動市場的一些關鍵因素。
鉻(Cr)是指一種有光澤、易碎、堅硬的金屬,呈銀灰色,在空氣中不會變色。它大量存在於地殼中,如岩石、植物、動物、土壤以及火山氣體和灰塵。它是從鉻礦中提取的,鉻礦是鐵、鋁、鎂和鉻的氧化物。它是一種必需的膳食營養素,是胰島素增效和正常葡萄糖代謝所必需的,它在體內的缺乏促使各種嚴重的健康相關疾病。它有助於硬化和製造不銹鋼,從而提高產品的有效性。除此之外,它還有助於提高合金的強度和耐腐蝕性,被認為適合於電鍍。它被廣泛用於生產耐火材料添加劑、合金鋼和不銹鋼、有色金屬合金和合成紅寶石。除此之外,鉻還被用於全球的化工、石化、能源和電力、採礦、鋼鐵和汽車行業。
目前,在冶金過程中對鉻的需求不斷增加,以提高淬透性,避免對其他金屬的腐蝕和氧化,這是支持市場成長的關鍵因素之一。除此之外,鉻在製造汽車排氣系統和汽車零部件(如安全帶彈簧、底盤、油箱、懸架和軟管夾)中的利用率不斷提高,這為市場前景提供了積極的保障。此外,在全球範圍內,多菸酸鉻、氯化鉻和吡啶甲酸鉻(CrP)作為微量營養素和人類及動物的營養補充劑的利用率也在上升。這一點,再加上對控製糖尿病血糖、降低膽固醇和血壓水平的CrP需求的增加,正在推動市場的成長。除此之外,由於全球範圍內對不銹鋼的利用不斷增加,對鉻的需求也在不斷增加,這為行業投資者提供了有利可圖的成長機會。除此以外,鉻的廣泛供應和實惠的價格也促進了市場的成長。此外,金屬電鍍和精加工行業在裝飾性電鍍中對鉻的需求不斷增加,對市場產生了積極的影響。此外,世界各地對鉻在皮革鞣製、木材處理和油漆顏料中的需求不斷增加,正在加強市場的成長。
The global chromium market size reached US$ 14.9 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 17.8 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 2.9% during 2023-2028. The growing utilization as micronutrients and nutritional supplements, increasing demand for refractory additives, and rising application in manufacturing car exhaust systems represent some of the key factors driving the market.
Chromium (Cr) refers to a lustrous, brittle, and hard metal that is silver-gray in color and does not tarnish in the air. It is abundantly available in the crust of the earth like rocks, plants, animals, soil, and volcanic gases and dust. It is commercially extracted from chromite, which is an oxide of iron, aluminum, magnesium, and chromium. It is an essential dietary nutrient that is required to potentiate insulin and for normal glucose metabolism, and its deficiency in the body causes various serious health-related disorders. It aids in hardening and manufacturing stainless steel, which enhances the effectiveness of the product. Besides this, it assists in increasing the strength and corrosion resistance of an alloy and considered suitable for electroplating. It is widely utilized in producing refractory additives, alloyed and stainless steel, non-ferrous alloy, and synthetic rubies. Apart from this, Cr is employed in the chemical, petrochemical, energy and power, mining, steel, and automotive industries across the globe.
At present, the rising demand for Cr in metallurgical processes to improve hardenability and avoid corrosion resistance and oxidation to other metals represents one of the key factors supporting the growth of the market. Besides this, the growing utilization of Cr in manufacturing car exhaust systems and auto parts, such as seatbelt springs, chassis, fuel tanks, suspensions, and hose clamps, is offering a positive market outlook. Additionally, there is a rise in the utilization of chromium polynicotinate, chromium chloride, and chromium picolinate (CrP) as micronutrients and nutritional supplements for humans and animals worldwide. This, coupled with the increasing demand for CrP to control blood sugar in diabetes and decrease cholesterol and blood pressure levels, is propelling the growth of the market. Apart from this, the rising demand for Cr due to the increasing utilization of stainless steel across the globe is offering lucrative growth opportunities to industry investors. In addition to this, the wide availability of Cr at an affordable price is contributing to the growth of the market. Moreover, the increasing demand for Cr in decorative plating from the metal plating and finishing industry is positively influencing the market. Furthermore, the rising demand for Cr in leather tanning, wood treatment, and paint pigments around the world is strengthening the market growth.
