Asia Pacific Significantly Supports the Global Market Growth

Owing to the increase in infrastructure and automobile demand in Asian countries, especially China, alumina trihydrate demand is booming there. Alumina trihydrate is used to ensure safety against fire-related uncertain happenings. Being a flame retardant, it is used in electric wire insulation in buildings and as an effective coating in automobiles. Circuit boards are prospective places where a fire may originate and thus insulating wires and cables with a flame retardant is important. In addition, governmental regulations with respect to fire safety in countries in North America and Europe will drive a stronger demand for it. Alumina trihydrate is a halogen-free flame retardant which will help in surging its demand further as an environment-friendly substitute.

Alumina Trihydrate Industry Segmentation

Alumina trihydrate or aluminium hydroxide is the hydrated oxide of aluminium. It is a white translucent powder with average particle size varying between 80-100 micron. Alumina trihydrate is separated from ore bauxite using the Bayer process. The Bayer process dissolves bauxite, which is aluminium ore, in sodium hydroxide at high temperatures and alumina trihydrate is then separated from the solids remaining after the heating process.

Versatility and Application Flexibility of Alumina Trihydrate is Leading to an Expanding Market

Alumina trihydrate is majorly converted into alumina, which is aluminium oxide, that is used in the manufacture of aluminium metal. Aluminium metal is highly demanded in products like cans, foils, aeroplane parts, among others because of its excellent properties. The rise in demand for aluminium drives the demand for its originator, aluminium trihydrate. Additionally, the property of alumina trihydrate being a fire retardant and smoke suppressant also expands its desirability in a variety of industries. It is used as a fire retardant as it releases water molecules at 220 degrees celsius taking heat away from the flame. Its capabilities like high brightness, water insolubility, low oil absorption is utilised in coatings, inks, adhesives, and sealants applications further boosting its demand. Alumina trihydrate is also used as an antacid that can be ingested to buffer the pH within the stomach. It also supports manufacture of many inorganic chemicals like non-ferric alum, poly aluminium chloride, aluminium fluoride, and others. Versatile properties of alumina trihydrate is expected to raise its demand in the forecast period.
