Market Overview:
The global bentonite market is estimated to be valued at US$ XX Mn in 2018 and is projected to reach US$ XX Mn by 2030, exhibiting a CAGR of X.X% during the forecast period. Bentonite is a type of clay mineral that possesses high swelling capacity when it comes in contact with water. This makes it an ideal material for various applications such as retention, pitch control and water treatment among others. Sodium bentonite dominates the market owing to its high absorption capacity and suitability for various applications across different regions.
Product Definition:
Bentonites are used in paper to improve its strength, absorbency and other properties. Bentonite is a clay mineral that swells when it comes into contact with water. This swelling action helps to bind the paper fibers together and makes the paper more absorbent. Bentonite also helps to improve the printing quality of paper by making it less prone to ink smudging.
Sodium Bentonite:
Sodium bentonite is a clay mineral, which has high surface area and low molecular weight. It has the ability to absorb water and hold it in its granular matrix. Sodium bentonite is used as an adsorbent for removal of moisture from pulp & paper during the manufacturing process. The product also finds application in food & beverage industry for removing moisture or liquids with no harmful effects on flavor or texture of products.
Calcium Bentonite:
Calcium bentonite is a clay mineral, which contains calcium and sodium. It has the ability to absorb water up to a maximum of 15 times its own volume. The material is white in color and usually occurs in crystalline form with an amorphous interior. Calcium bentonite is used as an adsorbent for oil & grease, removal of moisture from gas streams, control of dust particles size distribution in powders & paper manufacturing industries among others.
Application Insights:
Papermaking processes make use of different materials and additives to obtain high quality paper with enhanced properties. Retention time, water treatment, and pitch control are some of the aspects considered while manufacturing paper for various applications. Bentonite used in retention application contributes toward quick formation of a smooth surface on the web which helps in improving ink penetration & printability. It also acts as a thickening agent which improves ink holdout when wet after printing.
Water treatment is another important application area where bentonite is used along with other additives such as flocculants, polyelectrolytes and/or polyacrylates to improve water resistance property of the resulting product.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The growth of this region can be attributed to increasing demand for printing paper from emerging economies, such as China and India. In addition, rising population coupled with rapid urbanization has resulted in increased production of wastewater which is used for processing of printing paper. This has led to an increase in demand for bentonite clay products from these countries.
The product also finds application in water treatment wherein it acts as a filtration aid by absorbing heavy metals from industrial effluents and municipal sewage water thereby reducing pollution caused due to contamination of groundwater resources leading to environmental degradation.
North America accounted for a significant share owing toward growing consumption within U.S.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from the packaging and printing industries as a result of growth in the global economy.
- Rising demand for eco-friendly and recycled paper products.
- Increasing use of bentonite clay in oil drilling operations to improve well productivity and increase extraction rates.
- Growing popularity of bentonite clay as a natural detoxification agent and health supplement due to its high mineral content .
