Global Calcium Chloride Market: De-icing Offers Incremental Opportunities for Uptake in Coming Years, observes TMR

 The global calcium chloride market is highly consolidated with leading share held by only three players. In 2015, TETRA Chemicals, OxyChem, and B .J Services collectively held a lion’s share of 69.1% in the global market. These companies have consistently focused on the expansion of production facilities, setting up businesses in newer geographies, and widening their sales and distribution channels to remain at leading positions. “Increasing production and manufacturing products that are suited for various applications is expected to the key strategy of these companies to march forward in the coming years,” says the lead author of this research report.
According to the research report, the global calcium chloride market is expected to be worth US$ 1.52 bn by 2024 as compared to US$ 1.04 bn in 2015, expanding at a CAGR 4.2% from 2016 to 2024.

Asia Pacific and North America Show Strong Presence in Global Market
In terms of regions, the global calcium chloride market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East and Africa. Asia Pacific and North America hold a significant share of the global market. By the end of 2024, North America is expected to acquire a share of 46% in the global market. The demand for calcium chloride for product development for water treatment and several the applications is expected to provide an incremental opportunity to the market in North America in the coming years.

Calcium chloride is being applied in industries such as construction, drilling fluids, dust control, de-icing, and industrial processing. Of these, drilling fluids are expected to hold the highest share of 24.9% by the end of the forecast period. The soaring uptake of calcium chloride in the production of completion fluids is anticipated to contribute to the rising revenue of the segment.
Extensive Usage of Calcium Chloride for Dust Control Bodes Well for Overall Growth
The growing demand for calcium chloride is anticipated to remain steady as it is the key chemical used for de-icing. The frequently used de-icing agent is liquid calcium chloride of about 35% with rock salt to ice and snow control. Thus, in countries such as the U.S., Japan, and Canada calcium chloride is extensively used for managing the after-effects of heavy snowfall. Besides, de-icing, dust control is yet another leading application of calcium chloride.
Known to retain moisture for exceptionally longer durations, calcium chloride is used on unpaved road surfaces as a cost-effective dust suppressant. The growing awareness about simple solutions for dust control is expected to augment the demand for calcium chloride in the coming years. The booming construction industry and the subsequently rising demand for cement are also expected to propel the growth of the global market. Calcium chloride is used as a concentrate accelerator to speed up the curing rate of cement. It also helps in reducing the alkali content in cement, which is known to prevent cracking.
Oversupply of Substandard Material Could Hamper Revenue
As calcium chloride can be produced using multiple methods, it has led to an oversupply of cheap material in the market. Thus, it has reduced profit margins for several sellers to a significant extent. The corrosive nature of calcium chloride is also expected to hamper its sale in the coming years. As calcium chloride is hygroscopic, it retains water from the air that can result in corrosion at lower levels and cause extended periods of relative humidity.

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...
