Pune, India -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/02/2019 -- The Aluminum Hydroxide Market is expected to witness a CAGR of approximately 4.6% during the forecasted period. The major factor driving the market is the rapid increase in demand for aluminum compounds and the increasing usage in polymer applications, as fire retardants.
Growing Usage in Fire Retardants
Aluminum hydroxides find application as fire retardants in polymer applications, as these compounds address the need for safety, durability, and insulation in many applications. It is used as a fire retardant like magnesium hydroxide for polymer applications, since it decomposes at around 18000 Celsius, and absorbs a huge amount of heat energy during this process in order to emit water vapor. Aluminum hydroxide is also used as a smoke suppressant for a wide range of polymers, such as, polyesters, acrylics, rubber, and PVC. With the increase in concerns for fire accidents, the demand for fire retardants is expected to grow at a great pace. This, in turn, is expected to drive the market for aluminum hydroxide during the forecast period.
Pharmaceuticals Dominates the Market
Aluminum hydroxide is majorly used as an antacid in the pharmaceutical sector. It primarily aids in reducing acidity, which if left unattended, further alleviates the symptoms of ulcers, or dyspepsia, and heartburn. There has been a significant rise in the demand for such medications due to the enormous growth in the number of general health issues, primarily due to changing lifestyle and food habits.
