Lignite-An dominant mineral that used for the production of mineral waxes -Market Opportunity Assessment Study 2020

Waxes are solid material that melt and convert into liquid state at a slightly higher temperature. Sources of wax can be segregated into three segments: oil, mineral and plants & animals. Crude oil is the most dominant source of waxes moreover owing to higher demand for crude oil in other application segments, mineral waxes have been gaining acceptance and demand for mineral waxes has been surging across the globe. Lignite is the most dominant mineral used for the production of mineral waxes and this trend is anticipated continue for a foreseeable future. Ozokerite, peat and ceresin waxes are among other major mineral waxes sources. 

Environmental hazards associated with processing of crude oil coupled with volatile pricing of crude oil have led to decline in demand for crude oil based waxes. Moreover, high demand for crude oil for other more lucrative application segments has been the foremost factor driving demand for mineral waxes.  Increasing demand for wax in the production of rubber is expected to drive demand for mineral waxes during the forecast period. High growth in cosmetics market is also expected to be among major factors driving demand for mineral waxes. Moreover, supply constraints related to major mineral sources such as lignite is expected to restrain mineral waxes market growth. Furthermore, availability of other wax sources such as plants, animals and insects are expected to restrain mineral waxes market growth.

Asia Pacific dominates the global demand for mineral waxes and this trend is anticipated to continue during the forecast period. Asia Pacific comprises two of the largest and the fastest growing economies, India and China. China dominates the global production of mineral waxes and exports a major portion of the production. Moreover, high GDP growth in the emerging economies of India and China is expected to drive growth in several end user industries for mineral waxes including paper, rubber and cosmetic among several others. Furthermore, high demand for candles in India is expected to be among major factors driving demand for mineral waxes in Asia Pacific. Owing to the aforementioned factors, Asia Pacific is anticipated to be the fastest growing region for mineral waxes during the forecast period. 

North America is the second largest market for mineral waxes followed by Europe. Moreover, mineral waxes market in North America is profoundly dependent on imports from countries such as China. Poland is expected to be among major mineral waxes market in Europe. Moreover, Europe is anticipated to outdo North America in terms of mineral waxes market growth during the forecast period. Increasing demand for firelogs is anticipated to be a major factor driving demand for mineral waxes in North America and Europe. Demand for mineral waxes in RoW region is expected to be driven by increasing demand from developing economies of South America and Europe.


Mineral waxes market is highly fragmented and dominated by several regional players across the globe. Owing to dominance of regional players, the market is characterized by high prices sensitivity. Low capital investment has increased the threat from new entrants mainly in the developing economies. The degree of competition in the mineral waxes market is high and is expected to remain high for the next six years. Some of the major players in the market include American Refining Group Incorporated, Archer-Daniels-Midland Company, Calumet Specialty Products Partners LP, International Flora Technologies Limited and Honeywell International Inc 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...

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...
