Aluminum Hydroxide Market: Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2021-2031 Market

Aluminum Hydroxide Market Analysis 2020-2027:

Aluminum hydroxide, also known as hydrate alumina or trihydrate aluminum, is a basic inorganic, white colored, powered compound, which is of an amphoteric nature. Aluminum hydroxide is found in nature in the form of mineral gibbsite. It is one of the key components in aluminum ore, i.e., bauxite. The freshly precipitated aluminum hydroxide occurs in the form of gel. Industrially, aluminum hydroxide is produced by the Bayer's process, and is used as a raw material for the production of various aluminum-based compounds such as aluminum chlorides, zeolites, and aluminum oxide. Owing to its properties such as lightweight and fire resistance, it is widely used in many end-user industries such as automotive and transportation, construction, and electrical and electronics.

Key drivers of global aluminum hydroxide market

Polymers and plastics play a crucial role in increasing the durability and enhancing the characteristics of various additives of plastic & polymers such as flame-retardant chemicals, fillers & coatings, adhesives, and elastomers. In addition, surge in demand for lightweight and fire-resistant products in the automotive industry—to provide increased design flexibility—is responsible for the growth of the aluminum hydroxide market. Moreover, increase in consumption of plastics & polymers is fueling the demand for fire retardants, as plastics & polymers are more prone to fire and aluminum hydroxide being a major fire retardant acts as a prime factor driving the growth of market.

Market scenario: opportunities and challenges

The global aluminum hydroxide market is growing at a significant pace, owing to factors such as upsurge in the demand from the flame retardant in automotive industries.  Furthermore, rise in demand of aluminum hydroxide in painting and coating industries due to its cost-effectiveness is expected to fuel the global market growth. However, increase in adoption of alternative products such as magnesium hydroxide is expected to restrain the growth of the market. In addition, increase in health risks, due to exposure to aluminum hydroxide, is anticipated to hinder the growth of the market.

COVID-19 scenario analysis

Owing to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the global aluminum hydroxide market is expected to witness a slowdown during the next couple of years. Governments of various countries have implemented lockdown, which has led to shutdown of factories in scores of cities and provinces across the world, thus leading to predictions of a sharp slowdown in the production activities. In addition, recent decline in the growth of the plastic industry is one of the key factors that is likely to negatively impact the growth of aluminum hydroxide market. Furthermore, companies are dealing with missing sales and disrupted supply chains, as production activities are ceased. However, the use of aluminum hydroxide in formulation of antacids, due to its basic properties, is expected to fuel the market growth during the forecast period.
