Market Overview:
The global ferric chloride as oxidizing agent 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. The growth of the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for etching agents in electronics and semiconductor industries. Based on type, liquid ferric chloride accounted for a major share of the global market in 2017. This segment is projected to register high growth during the forecast period owing to its growing demand from various applications such as catalyst, etching agent, and others. By application, catalyst held a dominant share of the global market in 2017 and is expected to maintain its lead throughout the forecast period.
Product Definition:
Ferric chloride is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula FeCl3. It is a colorless solid that dissolves in water to give ferric ions and chloride ions. It is used as an oxidizing agent, for example in dyeing textiles and making paper.
Liquid Ferric Chloride:
Liquid ferric chloride is a solution of ferric chloride in water. It has a distinct colorless and odorless nature. The liquid is highly corrosive and can cause serious damage to the human body if directly applied on it. Ferric chloride reacts with rusting iron to form a green layer of corrosion which protects the underlying metal from further oxidation, thereby preventing it from getting rusted.
Solid Ferric Chloride:
Solid ferric chloride is a solid, colorless and highly toxic compound. It has a pungent odor similar to that of rust. Solid ferric chloride is an oxidizing agent used in the preparation of Ferric Chloride as it reacts with oxygen present in the atmosphere to form iron oxide which acts as an additive for enhancing the lightening effect.
Application Insights:
The application segment includes catalyst, etching agent, others and is classified based on the type of product used. The catalyst application segment accounted for a revenue share of over 40% in 2017. The demand for ferric chloride in the manufacturing of catalytic converters is expected to drive growth over the forecast period as it acts as anoxidizing agent and helps remove harmful compounds from exhaust gases.
The use of liquid or solid ferric chloride flakes as an etching agent has been prevalent since ages owing to their superior properties such as low cost, easy availability and high stability resulting in fewer modifications during its usage across all types of metal surfaces including steel, non-ferrous metals (such as aluminum), glass & silicon wafer etc. However, increasing preference towards other chemicals that are less expensive compared to liquid or solid ferric chloride flakes is likely to impact demand negatively over the next few years.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global ferric chloride oxidizing agent market in 2016 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The presence of a large number of manufacturers coupled with rapid industrialization in emerging economies such as China, India, and Indonesia is anticipated to drive demand for iron chlorides in this region. In addition, increasing investments by domestic players are projected to further propel industry growth over the next eight years.
The growing population coupled with rising disposable income has resulted in an increased demand for consumer electronics across Asia Pacific which will boost catalyst application scope over the forecast period. Furthermore, high penetration of solar energy generation technology across countries such as China and India will augment product demand from 2017 on account of growing need for environmental friendly products that do not generate carbon emissions during manufacturing process or after-use disposal procedures.
Europe was estimated at USD X million owing to high consumption levels associated with semiconductor & automotive manufacturing sectors present across Germany, U.K.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from end-use industries such as water treatment, papermaking, and textile industry
- Growing environmental concerns among consumers for safe and clean water
- Technological advancements in production processes of ferric chloride
- Rising prices of raw materials used in the manufacturing process of ferric chloride
- Increasing investments by leading players to expand their production capacities
