Market Challenges

• Strontium is a naturally occurring alkaline earth metal with various isotopes, including stable and radioactive forms. Radioactive strontium, specifically 90Sr, poses health risks as a human carcinogen. Humans can be exposed through air, food, water, and soil contact. Strontium's ill-effects include osteoporosis, skin cancer, and leukemia, with severe over-exposure being fatal. Regulations limit exposure: EPA sets a drinking water limit of 4 mg/L for stable strontium, and a 8 pCi/L average annual limit for 90Sr in community water supplies. USNRC sets an annual intake limit of 20 µCi for occupational air exposure to 90Sr. These health concerns restrict the growth of the strontium market during the forecast period.

• The Strontium market faces several challenges in various industries. In developing countries, affordability remains a key concern for end-users in sectors like paints and coatings, automobiles, and pyrotechnics. Corporate profits and public finances are under pressure, impacting the demand for Strontium sulfate and Strontium nitrate in industries like pyrotechnics for fireworks, flashes, streamers, and confetti, as well as in the entertainment industry for recreational shows, media events, festivals, and award shows. Strontium carbonates and Strontium chlorides are crucial in industries like electrical and electronics, medical and dental, aerospace, and refining. Strontium salts find applications as oxidizers, colorants, and pyrotechnic products. However, the market's growth is affected by the high production costs and price volatility, especially for Strontium carbonates and Strontium chlorates. Strontium's use in pyrotechnics as an oxidizer and colorant presents both opportunities and challenges. While the pyrotechnic segment, including fireworks, generates significant revenue, the market's growth is hindered by regulatory restrictions and safety concerns. Strontium's thermodynamic and mechanical properties, including corrosion resistance and demagnetization resistance, are essential for various industries. However, the market's growth is also influenced by the demand for Strontium in cathode ray tubes, personal care, and other applications. Overall, the Strontium market's growth is influenced by a range of factors, including end-user industries, household income, and global economic conditions.

1.1 Ferrite ceramic magnets-  Ferrite magnets are produced using a significant amount of ferric oxide combined with smaller proportions of additional metallic elements, including barium, manganese, and strontium. The crystal structure of ferrites varies, with barium and strontium ferrites having a hexagonal structure. Based on their magnetic properties, ferrites are categorized as soft, semi-hard, and hard. Hard ferrite magnets are made using iron oxide and barium or strontium carbonate. Strontium ferrite, represented by the chemical symbols SrFe12O19 or SrO6Fe2O3, is widely used in small electronic motors, recording media, magneto-optic media, and the telecommunication and electronic industries. The superior properties of ferrite magnets include high magnetic permeability, strong residual magnetic field, high-temperature stability (up to 250 degrees C or 482 degrees F), good electric insulation, and corrosion resistance. Due to their attractive properties and affordability, companies increasingly use ferrite magnets in various applications, such as AC commutator motors, permanent magnet DC motors, magnetic catches, loudspeakers, hard drives, sensors, anti-lock braking systems (ABS), magnetic shock absorbers, alternators, microphones and acoustic detectors, plate magnets, lifting magnets, magnetic clamps, and magnetic brakes. The growing demand for ferrite magnets across multiple industries is expected to fuel market expansion during the forecast period.
