Strontium
Sulfate Market: Introduction
·
Strontium sulfate occurs naturally in the form of a white
crystalline powder in the Celestine mineral. It can also be produced by
precipitation of a soluble strontium salt and a sulfate.
·
Strontium compounds are known for their characteristic red
color. Strontium sulfate is used as a high temperature oxidizer in some red
colors based on metals. It is a naturally occurring strontium compound that
acts as a precursor to other strontium compounds such as nitrates and
carbonates.
·
Strontium sulfate can be converted into strontium nitrate for
usage in pyrotechnic applications. Strontium sulfate is converted in the form
of strontium carbonate for use in ceramics
·
Strontium sulfate is increasingly used as pigment extender or
filler in powder coatings and liquid paints in the paints industry. It helps in
enhancing the performance of paints and coatinssgs. Building & construction
and manufacturing industries are the major end-users of strontium sulfate, as
they are the key consumers of paints and coatings.
Key
Drivers of Strontium Sulfate Market
·
Demand for strontium
sulfate market is anticipated to rise at a fast pace during the
forecast period. Rise in demand for strontium sulfate in end-use segments such
as paints & coatings and pyrotechnic is a key factor driving the market
·
The global paints & coatings industry is mature. However, it
is undergoing rapid transitions due to innovations and emergence of newer and
environment-friendly technologies. Paints & coatings industry is an important
component of the entire global chemical industry.
·
Macro-economic factors such as GDP growth, increase in
purchasing power, higher disposable income, urbanization, improvement in
economic conditions in developing countries, and recovery from debt crisis in
Europe strongly impact the paints & coatings industry
·
Rise in population, especially in Asia Pacific, directly impacts
the consumption of paints and coating products. Average per capita paint
consumption in the world stands at around 15kgs. It is lower than this in
several developing countries and is as high as 24kgs in developed countries
such as Germany. This gap in consumption patterns is one of the key factors
promoting the global paints & coatings industry. Expansion in the paints
& coatings industry is anticipated to drive the demand for strontium
sulfate during the forecast period.
Coatings Segment to Offer Attractive Opportunities
·
Prominent consumers of strontium sulfate include coatings,
analytical reagent, pyrotechnic, ceramics, and others
·
Strontium sulfate can be used in liquid paints, powder coatings,
and plastics. Paints & coatings industry is one of the prominent consumers
of strontium sulfate in the world. Strontium sulfate can be extensively used in
powder coatings, as it enables the coatings to have excellent optical
properties, fog and UV resistance, and improved film coverage. It has whiteness
comparable to that of titanium dioxide (TiO2) based compositions.
·
Pyrotechnic and coatings are estimated to be the rapidly
expanding segments of the global strontium sulfate market during the forecast
period

Asia Pacific Expected to Lead Global Strontium Sulfate Market
·
Asia Pacific is the major region of the global strontium sulfate
market. Demand for strontium sulfate is high in the region. This can be
ascribed to the rapidly expanding paints & coatings industry and use of
strontium sulfate in powder coatings. Asia Pacific is expected to be a rapidly
growing region of the strontium sulfate market during the forecast period.
India, China, and South Korea are estimated to lead the growth of the strontium
sulfate market in the region during the forecast period.
·
North America and Europe are also projected to be the key
consumers of strontium sulfate. Demand for strontium sulfate in Europe and
North America is likely to rise at a slow pace during the forecast period due
to sluggish growth of paints & coatings industry and other end-use segments
in these regions.
·
Latin America and Middle East & Africa are anticipated to
offer lucrative opportunities for the strontium sulfate market during the
forecast period. Most of the growth in Latin America is likely to be concentrated
in Brazil and Mexico.
·
Mexico is one of the largest producers of strontium in the
world. Local availability of raw materials is likely to boost the production of
strontium sulfate in the country during the forecast period.
