It provides a comprehensive view of the strontium market by dividing it into product, application and geography segments. The products have been segmented into strontium carbonate, strontium nitrate, strontium sulphate and others. The applications are segmented into pyrotechnics, ferrite metals, master alloys, paints & coatings, medical, zinc refining and others. These segments have been analyzed based on historic, present, and future trends.
Global Strontium Market: Key Segments
The product segment includes compounds of strontium such as strontium carbonate, strontium nitrate, strontium sulphate, and others (oxides, peroxides, hydroxides, and chlorides of strontium). The most consumed strontium compound is strontium carbonate because of its vast number of applications and strontium carbonate being one of the primary compounds that is used as the precursor to produce other strontium compounds.
The application segment includes pyrotechnics, ferrite magnets, master alloys, paints & coatings, medical, zinc refining, and others. Strontium is predominantly employed in pyrotechnics and the production of ceramic ferrite magnets. It acts as a luminescence and anti-corrosive factor in paints & coatings and is utilized in small amounts in the medical industry as well.
Strontium ranelate is a strontium salt of ranelic acid which was used in the medicine for osteoporosis. However, in the U.S., the drug for osteoporosis is not approved by the FDA. It exhibited hypersensitivity to some substances in the study carried out on it, and is not recommended to patients suffering from severe renal diseases. Stringent government regulations on the use of strontium compounds could act as a restraint for the overall strontium market.
Fireworks exhibitions usually includes bright colors, one of them being red. Also, red is a primary color from which other shades can be created. Exhibition fireworks and crackers are a major part of concerts and other live performance shows used for enhancement purposes. Pyrotechnics used for exhibition purposes includes fireworks, flares, crackers, and flashpapers. Strontium compounds being used as red colorant providers acts as a driver for the strontium market.
Global Strontium Market: Regional Segments
Regional segmentation includes the current and forecast consumption of strontium in North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Middle East & Africa (MEA). Market segmentation includes demand for consumption in all the regions individually. In terms of production, China, Mexico, and Spain are major countries in the strontium market. The U.S., the U.K., France, Italy, China, India, and a few other parts of Asia are major consumers.
