Market Overview:
The global semi friable alumina market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for bonded abrasives and coated abrasives across the globe. In terms of type, first grade alumina is expected to hold a major share of the global semi friable alumina market during the forecast period. This can be attributed to its high purity and superior performance in various applications such as bonded abrasives and coated abrasives. In terms of application, bonded abrasives is expected to account for a major share of the global semi friable alumina market during the forecast period.
Product Definition:
A type of alumina that is less brittle and more fracture resistant than other types. It is used as a refractory material in high-temperature applications.
First Grade:
First grade is a special category of clay, which is widely used in the production of bricks and tiles. It has high plasticity and low plasticizing tendency. The chemical composition of first-grade clays varies depending upon the source materials from which it is extracted. For instance, first-grade bentonite contains about 48% to 60% content by weight of sodium silicate while first-grade kaolin consists of approximately 45% to 55 % content by weight potassium silicate.
Second Grade:
Second grade is a very fine and dry powder made from aluminum silicate. It has applications in semi friable alumina market owing to its properties such as low bulk density, high surface area, and large particle size. These properties make it suitable for use in the production of lightweight concrete admixtures which are further used to produce lightweight cement or portland cement type products.
Application Insights:
Bonded abrasives were the largest application segment and accounted for a market share of more than 60% in 2017. The product is extensively used as a bonded abrasive owing to its high abrasion efficiency, which helps achieve higher production rates with less investment. Bonded abrasives are widely utilized in metal cutting applications where they are used as an alternative to conventional steel bonds. Coated abrasives are expected to witness the fastest growth over the forecast period owing to their rising demand from various end-use industries including construction, automotive and marine among others. Semi friable alumina coated products have gained popularity due largely on account of their low cost coupled with excellent performance characteristics that make them ideal for use in grinding wheels and discs among other types of machines & equipment such as precision grinding machines, milling cutters, facing/rabbeting tools etc.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific was the dominant regional market in 2017 and accounted for a share of over 45%. The region is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. This can be attributed to growing demand from end-use industries, such as automotive, aerospace & defense, construction, and electrical & electronics. In addition, increasing investments by multinational companies are anticipated to boost product demand in this region. For instance; In January 2018; Nippon Steel & Sumitomo Metal Corporation announced about investing USD X million for expanding its steel plant capacity in India by adding 1 million tons per year of crude steel production capacity at Jamshedpur with an investment of USD X million (Rs 20 billion).
The Asia Pacific is also projected to emerge as the fastest-growing regional market from 2018 to 2030 owing high growth rates observed in various end-use applications including construction and automotive industry due rising population coupled with rapid urbanization across emerging economies like China and India.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from end-use industries such as automotive, construction and electrical & electronics
- Growing investments in alumina refineries by major players to cater to the increasing demand
- Rising prices of aluminum due to increased demand from China and other developing countries
- Technological advancements in alumina production that help reduce manufacturing costs
- Stringent environmental regulations for emissions that promote the use of semi friable alumina over other alternatives
