2023年全球铬IMARC Group规模达153亿美元。作为微量营养素和营养补充剂的使用不断增加,对耐火添加剂的需求不断增加,以及在汽车废气系统製造中的应用不断增加,是推动市场发展的一些关键因素。
铬(Cr)是一种有光泽、脆而硬的金属,颜色是银灰色,在空气中不会变色。它广泛存在于地壳中,如岩石、植物、动物、土壤、火山气体和灰尘。商业上它是从铬铁矿中提取的,铬铁矿是铁、铝、镁和铬的氧化物。它是增强胰岛素和正常葡萄糖代谢所需的必需膳食营养素,体内缺乏它会导致各种严重的健康相关疾病。它有助于不銹钢的硬化和製造,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,并被认为适合电镀。它广泛用于生产耐火添加剂、合金钢和不銹钢、有色合金和合成红宝石。除此之外,铬也用于全球的化学、石化、能源和电力、采矿、钢铁和汽车产业。
目前,冶金製程中对铬的需求不断增长,以提高淬透性并避免对其他金属的耐腐蚀性和氧化,这是支持市场成长的关键因素之一。除此之外,铬在汽车排气系统和汽车零件(如安全带弹簧、底盘、油箱、悬吊和软管夹)製造的使用不断增加,带来了积极的市场前景。此外,作为人类和动物的微量营养素和营养补充剂,聚烟碱酸铬、氯化铬和吡啶甲酸铬 (CrP) 的使用量增加。再加上对肌酸磷酸(CrP)控製糖尿病血糖、降低胆固醇和血压水平的需求不断增加,正在推动市场的成长。除此之外,由于全球范围内不銹钢利用率的不断提高,对铬的需求不断增长,这为行业投资者提供了利润丰厚的成长机会。除此之外,铬的广泛供应和价格实惠也有助于市场的成长。此外,金属电镀和精加工行业对装饰电镀铬的需求不断增加,对市场产生了积极影响。此外,全球皮革鞣製、木材处理和油漆颜料对铬的需求不断增长,也推动了市场的成长。
The global chromium market size reached US$ 15.3 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 19.3 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 2.5% during 2024-2032. 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.
