Global Mining Chemicals Market to Progress at 6.6% CAGR till 2019 thanks to Rising Demand for Rare Earth Metals

The featured report from Transparency Market Research (TMR) on the global mining chemicals market offers the latest intelligence on the industry. This report is titled “Mining Chemicals Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast 2013 - 2019”. According to this report, the global mining chemicals market will expand at a CAGR of 6.6% during the forecast period from 2013 to 2019. In 2012, the global mining chemicals market was estimated at US$18 bn and by 2019, the market is projected to be worth US$28.1 bn.

The global mining chemicals market is driven by the growing demand for mining chemicals due to the increase in the occurrence of low-quality and complex ores. In addition to this, the global mining chemicals market’s growth is also supported by the stringent government regulations for tailings management and the rising economic conditions in the Asia Pacific region. On the other hand, the global mining chemicals market is suppressed by the complicated transportation and logistics involved in the mining chemicals market.


Product-wise, the global mining chemicals market is divided into grinding aids, solvent extracts, collectors, flocculants, frothers, and others. The segment of grinding aids held the largest share in the global mining chemicals market in terms of volume, around 29% in 2012. The second largest product segment in the global mining chemicals market in 2012 was that of collectors. The global mining chemicals market exhibits a moderate degree of forward integration due to the engagement of a few mining chemical producers in downstream activities. This integration will provide participants a distinctive competitive edge in terms of enhanced customer retention and market demands.

By application, the global mining chemicals market is segmented into water and wastewater treatment, explosives and drilling, mineral processing, and others. In 2012, the waste and wastewater treatment segment held a share of 40%, in terms of volume consumed, in the global mining chemicals market. Rising demand for mining chemicals used for water treatment due to the presence of favorable regulations in several countries to control the effect of mining on the environment will drive the segment of water and wastewater treatment in the global mining chemicals market.

On the basis of region, the global mining chemicals market is classified into Asia Pacific, Europe, North America, and Rest of the World (RoW). In 2012, Asia Pacific and Europe were the key regional markets for mining chemicals. Asia Pacific was the dominant regional market for mining chemicals and held a share of more than 50% in the global mining chemicals market in terms of total volume consumption. Several key mining chemical producers are increasingly focusing on capacity expansion in the Asia Pacific region. In addition to this, the revival of the global economy following recent economic troubles in the Western World will also drive the demand for minerals and rare earth metals globally.

Companies in the global mining chemicals market will benefit from the market opportunity of growing investment in mining in North Africa and Latin America. Some of the key players operating in the global mining chemicals market are AkzoNobel Performance Additives, Air Products and Chemicals, Cytec Industries, Clariant AG, The Dow Chemical Company, BASF SE, and Ashland Inc.

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...

Industrial Lubricants Market: Strong Demand Across Automotive Industry, Trends To 2025

Lubricants refer to the organic or inorganic material primarily being use to decrease friction between two surfaces in contact. Lubricants play a key role in several industries as well as in commercial and residential sectors. One of their most common uses is in the lubrication of bearings and gears, allowing for their easy movement at high speeds, without loss in energy, prevent excessive generation of heat, or most importantly, prevent damage that would be caused otherwise. Industrial lubricants are, therefore, essential in enhancing the overall efficiency of a machine that contains moving parts in contact with one another. The global industrial lubricants market is currently expanding at a solid growth rate, driven by several factors and spearheaded by the likes of BP, Total, Chevron Corporation, ExxonMobil, and Shell.

Rapid Prototyping Market - Rapidly Gaining Importance in Aerospace Sector, Research By 2024

Rapid prototyping is a technique in which the physical modeling of a design is done with the help of specialized machining technology. It was developed initially in the mid-1980s, the principle used in this technology is of solid modeling with the help of computer programs (i.e. CAD). Solid modeling makes use of computer aided-design (CAD) data to completely describe not just the external shape of parts or equipment, but its interior volume as well as the outside surfaces. The computer model is sliced into thin layers and the part of the product or commodity to be modelled or developed as per the requirement, is eventually fabricated by adding layers onto each other. Obtain Report Details @   http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/rapid-prototyping-market.html The primary benefit of the system is that almost any shape can be manufactured using computerized programs. Time and money savings vary from 50% to 90% compared to conventional systems. Types of rapid proto...
