Electric insulator Valuable Resource for pharmaceutical and industrial manufacturing processes - Aluminum Oxide Market Evolving Technology, Trends and industry Analysis – 2020



Aluminum oxide, a chemical compound of oxygen and alluminum is a commonly occurring oxide. It is known by its chemical formula as Al2O3 and identified as aluminium (III) oxide. Depending on applications and particular forms, they are also known as alumina, aloxite, aloxide and alundum. It occurs in its crystalline polymorphic form comprising mineral corundum by which various precious gems such as sapphire and ruby are formed. Aluminum oxide is an electric insulator. It has relatively high thermal conductivity for ceramic material. Al2O3 is soluble in water and very slightly soluble in alkali and acids. It is used as a component in cutting tool and as an abrasive. It is known for its resistance of metallic aluminium to weathering. Aluminum oxide is also a widely used phosphate remover. Aluminum in the form of both salts and solid alumina, removes phosphate from aqueous solutions.

Aluminum oxide is available in the market in the form of powder, pellets, pieces, sputtering targets, nanoparticles and tablets. Aluminum nanoparticles are being used on a large scale as compared to bulk materials due to its enhanced properties. The physical appearance of nanoparticles is spherical in the form of white powder. These particles in liquid and solid form are inflammable and irritant to the respiratory tract. The benefits of aluminum oxide nanoparticles include toughness, electricity conductivity, ductility and increased strength and hardness of metals and alloys. Alumina nanoparticles are manufactured using laser ablation of an aluminium target in deionized water.

The various application areas of aluminum oxide include pharmaceutical and industrial manufacturing processes among others. It is used as an adsorbent, catalyst, desiccating agent, used in manufacture of dental cement, as a dispersing agent in food, as an abrasive in toothpaste and also has uses in hemodialysis. Other applications include fillers for plastics, purifier to remove water from gas streams and for reflective decorative effects and paints. In addition it is used as a medium of chromatography in sodium vapor lamps, to make spark plug insulators, as a material in hip replacements and also used in compact fluorescent lamps. Aluminum oxide has high demand as a biomaterial for medical transplants in the market.

Growing pharmaceutical industry along with rising demand for aluminum oxide from other applications in the industry is expected to be the major driver for aluminum oxide. The growing demand from ceramic industries to manufacture porous ceramics is also expected to boost demand for aluminum oxide in the near future. However, exposure to aluminum oxide causing health concerns is expected to be the major restraining factor for the growth of aluminum oxide market. Aluminum oxide is not a human carcinogen but is noted to develop severe pulmonary reactions such as fibrosis, pneumothorax and emphysema. Short-term exposure to aluminum oxide may cause upper respiratory tract and eye irritation. Long-term exposure may affect the central nervous system. 


Asia Pacific and North America is expected to be the largest consumers of aluminum oxide owing to the growing pharmaceutical industries in Asia Pacific and increasing use of aluminum for ceramic works in North America. Some of the major players profiled for aluminum oxide market include: Almatis, Chemicals India Company, Khambhalay Abrasive, Tirupati Industries, Snam Abrasives Pvt. Ltd, MTC Wesgo, Nivaka Pharmaceuticals Industries, SASOL, GRACE, GIFA, Russel and Vega among others.

Superabrasives (Turning, Cutting, Buffing, Drilling, Boring, Grinding) Market Research Report 2025

An abrasive is a material which molds or provides finishing to a work piece through a process which includes buffing, grinding, cutting, as well as polishing. Abrasion typically depends on the difference in the hardness of the material and the abrasive (with the latter being the harder of the two). Unlike regular abrasion where any two solid materials that repeatedly rub against each other tend to wear away, superabrasives possess the kind of hardness that enables them to stay usable for a longer period of time. On the basis of hardness, the top two superabrasives include diamond and cubic boron nitride (CBN). Industrial diamonds used as superabrasives are exceptionally hard materials. However, they display several technological limitations. For instance, when a diamond comes in contact with a ferrous alloy such as steel or a nickel superalloy, the resulting formation of carbide leads to its abrasion. Also, a diamond-containing tool can only be used at moderate temperatures a...

Virtual pipeline system market - Demand of cleaner energy alternatives, Trends 2025

Powered by the advancing concerns over renewability of energy sources has affected the natural gas industry positively. The transportation of oil and natural gas in a brisk, albeit safe manner has never been such an urgent requirement. With pipelines being the most common approach, they are the primary choice of supply of energy sources. Physical pipelines, being confined to specific geography, are not found to be effective in terms of unfeasible terrains or technically inaccessible areas. As a result, the virtual pipeline industry has been gaining recognition, and is slated to be one of the fastest growing markets in the upcoming years. According to a report published by Transparency Market Research (TMR), the global virtual pipeline industry is anticipated to witness a steady growth during the forecast period of 2017-2025. The industry opportunity is expected to be supported by the brisk acceleration of the demand of transportation of liquid energy resources. Industrial space...
