STUDY GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
The objective of the report is to identify the key trends in the global markets for corrosion inhibitors. The report quantifies the worldwide growth potential of corrosion inhibitors over the five-year period from 2016 through 2021. The study focuses on identifying key end users and industries that will affect the major market trends.
Industries such as petroleum refining, power generation, mining, pulp and paper, water treatment and others are heavily dependent on the use of corrosion inhibitors to protect their products and machinery from being damaged. Corrosion causes losses exceeding hundreds of billions of dollars worldwide. These losses are expected to increase the use of corrosion inhibitors while driving the significant growth of the market over the forecast period of 2016 through 2021.
REASONS FOR DOING THE STUDY
Corrosion is a naturally occurring phenomenon that destroys metal. It is an ongoing problem that affects many industries. The economic cost of corrosion is very high; according to World Corrosion Organization, the cost of corrosion is $2.2 trillion across the globe which is around 3% of global GDP. The industries most affected by problems with corrosion are oil and gas, metals, water treatment and manufacturing. One of the major methods used to prevent corrosion is the use of corrosion inhibitors. The impact of corrosion has created tremendous demand for corrosion inhibitors across the globe.
There is increased demand for the development of nontoxic corrosion inhibitors. Governments and environmental activists have concerns regarding the toxicity of corrosion inhibitors and their harmful effects on the environment and the health of populations worldwide. Arsenic-based corrosion inhibitors have been banned in many parts of the world due to its toxic nature or either have some heavy regulations imposed due to which manufactures are looking for other alternatives such as green corrosion inhibitors to be used in consumer products. Industry research is focused on developing corrosion inhibitors that are more environmentally friendly.
The report intends to explain the key trends in the industry. It discusses the industries that are using the products and studies the motivating and restraining factors. The report will be a key decision-making tool for the intended audience.
INTENDED AUDIENCE
Industries such as petroleum, cement and concrete, pulp and paper, metals, water treatment, power generation, chemical processing, mining, transportation and manufacturing, such as electronics and textiles, are covered in the report. There is also considerable demand for corrosion inhibitors in other industries such as aircraft, automobile, highway bridges, hydroelectric power, nuclear and processing. Because problems with corrosion are increasing across the globe, the demand for corrosion inhibitors has significantly increased over the years. Companies within the market for corrosion inhibitors are focused on developing improved methods to curb the menace of corrosion.
The report will be useful to all the industries listed above as well as those companies that want to enter the market. As the report also covers various geographic regions in detail, companies interested in expanding their geographic reach will also find the report useful.
SCOPE OF REPORT
Corrosion inhibitors are chemical compounds that prevent or decrease the rate of corrosion of the exposed surface of metals or alloys. Corrosion inhibitors are available in solid, liquid, powder and gaseous forms. In this report, the market is segmented based on product type (water based, oil based and solvent based), end-user industry, chemical type (inorganic and organic), protection method (active and passive) and geographic region. The raw materials and key technologies used in corrosion inhibitors are also covered at length.
There is tremendous demand for corrosion inhibitors from industries such as oil and gas, concrete, refinery, water treatment process, power generation and metal. The equipment used in these industries is prone to corrosion and as a result the companies that own the equipment suffer tremendous production losses every year.
Additionally, shale gas exploration, the development of power generation plants, growth in construction and water treatment processes will provide significant opportunities within the market for corrosion inhibitors. Many industrial machines, equipment, pipelines and parts used in power generation require the application of corrosion inhibitors on a regular basis to avoid deterioration and rusting, which is a very common occurrence in these sectors. The major types of products included in the report are water, oil and solvent based.
All of the major markets were further segmented by geographic region. The major geographic regions covered in the report are North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and the rest of the world (RoW). A country-specific breakdown of the market for corrosion inhibitors is also included in the report. Values were estimated based on the amount of corrosion inhibitors consumed by various end-user markets and revenues generated from the sale of corrosion inhibitors. The study covers the global market for corrosion inhibitors and is not limited to the countries included in this report. The selection of the countries to be included in this report was mainly based on the total revenue generated. Major countries included in the report are the U.S., Canada, Germany, the U.K., Spain, Italy, France, China, Japan and India.
