Chlor-Alkali Market: Provides Wide Range for Industrial processes for producing chlorine, caustic soda, Growth By 2024

Globally, the chlor alkali market represents one of the largest chemical industries by value as well as volume. Chlor alkali is an industrial process for producing chlorine, caustic soda, and other sodium and chlorine based derivatives such as chlorinated paraffin, bleaching powder, hydrochloric acid, hydrogen gas, and sodium hypochlorite. Chorine is basic for the plastics industry, as EDC/PVC is used in a large number of plastics. EDC/PVC has been one of the largest applications of chlorine in recent years.
Other than this, isocyanate is expected to emerge as the fastest-growing application of chlorine in the coming years. The rising demand from the construction industry and the increasing demand for chemicals from the emerging economies are benefitting the chlorine and its allied industries.
The report presents an in-depth analysis of market dynamics, growth trends, and competitive hierarchy that will impact the progression of the global chlor alkali market between 2016 and 2024. The report also reviews micro and macro factors essential for existing market players as well as new entrants for key decision making.
The report is a collective of facts and figures that presents developments in the global chlor alkali market in a chronological order. With the use of standard analytical tools such as SWOT analysis and Porter’s Five Forces analysis and, the report presents valuable insights into the changing competitive dynamics of the market.
Global Chlor Alkali Market: Drivers and Restraints
The global chlor alkali market is in growth mode due to several factors. The economic development in countries such as India and China is one of the major factors driving the global chlor alkali market. The development of large chemical industries to cater to the increasing demand for consumer goods and infrastructural development is indirectly benefitting the chlor alkali market in developing regions.
The environmental implications of chlor alkali is posing a challenge to the growth of the chlor alkali market. Mercury and carbon emissions during chlor alkali have been concerns for the market. Moreover, chlor alkali process is highly energy intensive, which is hampering the growth of this market.

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...
