简介目录

概述

2023年，全球板状刚玉市场规模达335亿美元，预计2031年将达到510亿美元，2024-2031年预测期间复合CAGR为5.4%。

板状刚玉具有优异的耐火品质、机械强度、耐磨性、化学纯度、介电能力以及酸性和碱性条件下的耐腐蚀性。汽车、加工工业和水处理不断增长的需求正在推动板状刚玉在吸附剂和干燥剂中的使用，导致市场扩张。

干燥剂用作干燥剂床支撑物，而吸附剂则用于多种净化领域。此外，建筑、石油和天然气、石化、製药、炼油厂和水处理厂等最终用户类别对板状刚玉吸附剂和干燥剂的需求增加，对板状刚玉市场的成长产生了积极影响。

到2023年，北美预计将成为第二主导地区，占据全球板状刚玉市场约25%的份额。根据美国建筑师协会的数据，2022 年美国非住宅建筑总体建设预计将增长 3.1%。2022 年酒店预计将增长 8.8%，而办公空间将增长 0.1%。随后的成长可能会推动预测期内板状刚玉市场的扩张。

动力学

耐火材料需求不断成长

板状刚玉因其优异的热特性、高纯度和抗热衝击能力而被广泛应用于高性能耐火材料的製造。钢铁、水泥、玻璃、石化和陶瓷等产业对耐火材料的需求不断增长，推动了板状刚玉市场的发展。公司正在寻找扩大足迹以满足需求的方法。

例如，2022年12月，品川耐火材料有限公司从美国圣戈班公司收购了巴西耐火材料和氧化铝陶瓷公司。此次收购旨在帮助该公司在未来几年扩大产品线。此外，2022 年 4 月，圣戈班收购了总部位于纽约的电熔耐火材料製造商 Monofrax。这项战略决策预计将提升该公司在美国市场的地位。

钢铁产量上升

钢铁工业是板状刚玉的主要用户，主要用于生产炼钢炉和钢包的耐火衬里。随着新兴经济体的都市化、基础设施扩张和工业化导致全球钢铁产量增加，耐火材料应用板状刚玉的需求也会增加。

日本钢铁联合会的资料显示，该国粗钢产量将从2021年的9630万吨增至2022年的8920万吨。2022年9月，Essar透露计划投资40亿美元建设和建设钢铁厂。到2025年，在沙乌地阿拉伯建成年产能4 吨的钢铁联合体。

原材料的高成本和可用性

板状刚玉的生产需要复杂的製造工艺，如煅烧、烧结和破碎，所有这些都需要大量的能源投入和专用设备。因此，板状氧化铝的生产成本比其他氧化铝基材料（如电熔氧化铝或白电熔氧化铝）更高，这可能会限制其使用，特别是在成本敏感的应用中。

板状刚玉通常由高纯度氧化铝原料製成，其供应可能有限或价格波动。对特定原料的依赖可能会产生供应链漏洞，损害板状刚玉生产的稳定性，可能导致供应短缺或成本上升。

Tabular alumina offers superior refractory qualities, mechanical strength, wear resistance, chemical purity, dielectric capabilities and corrosion resistance in acidic and alkaline conditions. The growing demand from automotive, process industries and water treatment is driving the use of tabular alumina in adsorbents and desiccants, leading to market expansion.

Desiccants serve as desiccant bed supports, whereas adsorbents are used in a variety of sectors for purification. Furthermore, the increased demand for tabular alumina adsorbents and desiccants in end-user categories including construction, oil & gas, petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, refineries and water treatment plants is positively impacting the growth of the tabular alumina market.

In 2023, North America is expected to be the second dominant region, holding about 25% of the global tabular alumina market. In accordance to the American Institute of Architects, overall non-residential building construction in U.S. is expected to increase by 3.1% in 2022. Hotels are anticipated to grow by 8.8% in 2022, while office spaces will grow by 0.1%. The subsequent increase is likely to drive the expansion of the tabular alumina market during the forecast period.

Dynamics

Rising Demand from Refractories

Tabular alumina is widely utilized in the manufacture of high-performance refractory materials due to its exceptional thermal characteristics, high purity and resilience to thermal shock. The growing need for refractories in sectors like steel, cement, glass, petrochemicals and ceramics is driving the tabular alumina market. Companies are developing ways to increase their footprint to meet demand.

For example, in December 2022, Shinagawa Refractories Co. Ltd., purchased the Brazilian refractory and alumina-based ceramics companies from Compagnie de Saint-Gobain S.A. in U.S. The acquisition was intended to help the company grow its product line in the future years. Also, in April 2022, Saint-Gobain bought Monofrax, a New York-based manufacturer of fused cast refractories. The strategic decision was expected to boost the company's position in the American market.

Rising Steel Production

The steel industry is a major user of tabular alumina, primarily for the production of refractory linings for steel making furnaces and ladles. As global steel production increases due to urbanization, infrastructural expansion and industrialization in emerging economies, so will the demand for tabular alumina for refractory applications.

According to data from the Japan Iron and Steel Federation, crude steel production in the country will reach 89.2 million tons in 2022, up from 96.3 million tons in 2021. In September 2022, Essar revealed its plans to invest US$ 4 billion in building and completing a four-mtpa steel complex in Saudi Arabia by 2025.

High Costs and Availability of Raw Materials

The production of tabular alumina requires sophisticated manufacturing processes such as calcination, sintering and crushing, all of which demand considerable energy inputs and specialized equipment. As a result, tabular alumina has a greater production cost than other alumina-based materials, like fused alumina or white fused alumina, which may limit its use, particularly in cost-sensitive applications.

Tabular alumina is generally made from high-purity aluminum oxide feedstock, which may be limited in supply or subject to price volatility. Dependence on specific raw materials can generate supply chain vulnerabilities and impair the stability of tabular alumina production, potentially causing supply shortages or cost rises.

Segment Analysis

The global tabular alumina market is segmented based on type, application and region.

Rising Demand for Iron & Steel Drives the Refractory Segment Growth

Refractory industry is expected to be the fastest growing segment with 1/3rd of the market during the forecast period 2024-2031. The refractory industry supplies steel, cement, glass, ceramics, petrochemicals and non-ferrous metals. Increasing industrialization, infrastructure development and consumer goods demand stimulate the demand for refractories in these sectors, resulting in increased usage of tabular alumina as a crucial raw material.

Internal furnace linings are used to manufacture iron and steel, in furnaces to heat steel before further processing, in vessels to contain and transport metal and slag and in a variety of other uses. The World Steel Association said that 63 countries produced 142.4 million metric tons of basic steel in February 2023. It shows the global demand forecasts that are driving the expansion of the tabular alumina market.

Geographical Penetration

Rising Focus on Prefabricated Construction in Asia-Pacific

Asia-Pacific is the dominant region in the global tabular alumina market covering more than 30% of the market. Rising infrastructure investment, including building, transportation and urban expansion, drives up demand for construction materials such refractories, ceramics and abrasives. Tabular alumina is utilized in a variety of construction applications, including high-performance refractory linings, ceramic tiles and abrasive surface finishing.

In line with China's Five-Year Plan, which was released in January 2022, the country's construction industry is expected to rise by 6% in 2022. China intends to increase the use of prefabricated buildings to cut pollution and waste on construction sites. Prefabricated parts, either partially or completely made and then delivered to the construction sites for assembly, can account for more than 30% of the country's new construction.

Competitive Landscape

The major global players in the market include Almatis BV, AluChem Inc., Bisley & Company Pty. Ltd., Imerys, KT Refractories US Co., Luoyang Zhongsen Refractory Co., Possehl Erzkontor GmbH & Co. KG, Ransom & Randolph Co., SILKEM Doo and Zibo Biz-Harmony International Co. Ltd.

COVID-19 Impact

The pandemic impacted globally supply networks, including raw material, transportation and manufacture. It caused delays in the production and delivery of tabular alumina, reducing supply availability and creating logistical issues for manufacturers and suppliers. The economic slump lowered demand for tabular alumina in a variety of industries, including steel, ceramics, refractories and abrasives.

Many end-user industries reduced operations, postponed projects or had financial difficulties, resulting in diminished demand for tabular alumina products. The epidemic caused varied degrees of interruption in industries that rely significantly on tabular alumina, such as steel making, refractories and ceramics. Lockdown measures, reduced consumer demand and supply chain issues impacted production levels and infrastructure expenditure, resulting in decreased demand for tabular alumina in these industries.

Russia-Ukraine War Impact

Ukraine is an important producer of raw materials like bauxite and alumina, which are required for the production of tabular alumina. Any delays to Ukraine's mining operations, transportation networks or export routes cause raw material supply problems for tabular alumina production. Geopolitical concerns arising from the conflict may have an impact on trade relationships and export-import dynamics, causing volatility and uncertainty in the global tabular alumina market.

Export restrictions, taxes or sanctions imposed on important producing countries may disrupt supply chains and alter market dynamics. Prices for raw materials such as bauxite and alumina may rise due to supply shortages or geopolitical risk premiums, increasing the cost of tabular alumina manufacturing. Higher prices affect the competitiveness of tabular alumina goods and downstream uses.
