铬市场:2023-2028年全球行业趋势、份额、规模、增长、机会和预测Chromium Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2023-2028 |
2022年,全球铬市场规模达到149亿美元。展望未来,IMARC集团预计,到2028年,市场规模将达到178亿美元,在2023-2028年期间呈现2.9%的增长率(CAGR)。作为微量营养素和营养补充剂的利用率不断提高,对耐火材料添加剂的需求不断增加,以及在制造汽车排气系统方面的应用不断增加,这些都是推动市场的一些关键因素。
铬(Cr)是指一种有光泽、易碎、坚硬的金属,呈银灰色,在空气中不会变色。它大量存在于地壳中,如岩石、植物、动物、土壤以及火山气体和灰尘。它是从铬矿中提取的,铬矿是铁、铝、镁和铬的氧化物。它是一种必需的膳食营养素,是胰岛素增效和正常葡萄糖代谢所必需的,它在体内的缺乏导致各种严重的健康相关疾病。它有助于硬化和制造不锈钢,从而提高产品的有效性。除此之外,它还有助于提高合金的强度和耐腐蚀性,被认为适合于电镀。它被广泛用于生产耐火材料添加剂、合金钢和不锈钢、有色金属合金和合成红宝石。除此之外,铬还被用于全球的化工、石化、能源和电力、采矿、钢铁和汽车行业。
目前,在冶金过程中对铬的需求不断增加,以提高淬透性,避免对其他金属的腐蚀和氧化,这是支持市场增长的关键因素之一。除此之外,铬在制造汽车排气系统和汽车零部件(如安全带弹簧、底盘、油箱、悬架和软管夹)中的利用率不断提高,这为市场前景提供了积极的保障。此外,在全球范围内,多烟酸铬、氯化铬和吡啶甲酸铬(CrP)作为微量营养素和人类及动物的营养补充剂的利用率也在上升。这一点,再加上对控制糖尿病血糖、降低胆固醇和血压水平的CrP需求的增加,正在推动市场的增长。除此之外,由于全球范围内对不锈钢的利用不断增加,对铬的需求也在不断增加,这为行业投资者提供了有利可图的增长机会。除此以外,铬的广泛供应和实惠的价格也促进了市场的增长。此外,金属电镀和精加工行业在装饰性电镀中对铬的需求不断增加,对市场产生了积极的影响。此外,世界各地对铬在皮革鞣制、木材处理和油漆颜料中的需求不断增加,正在加强市场的增长。
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.
