Strontium Market Trends

• 
  

  The paints and Coatings Sector is driving the market growth

  
  

Strontium sulfate, a white, odorless, and non-hazardous powder, is widely used as a pigment extender or filler in the painting industry to enhance the performance of powder coatings and liquid paints. It not only acts as a color enhancer but also provides improved UV resistance, film coverage, and mechanical properties. Additionally, its usage varies depending on the environment and room type in which it is applied, making it a versatile material. Developing countries with a growing construction industry have untapped potential for strontium sulfate as it positively impacts corporate profits, public finances, and household income. The consumption of paints and coatings is expected to rise due to the growth of end-user industries such as automobiles globally, driving the demand for strontium market CAGR

Additionally, High demand for strontium nitrate in the pyrotechnics industry; Fireworks and pyrotechnics have become increasingly popular in recreational shows and entertainment. Events such as sports events, media events, festivals, and award shows utilize various fireworks to add grandeur and extravagance to their shows. Growing demand for pyrotechnic chemicals is expected to, in turn, drive sales of strontium nitrate, which is commonly used as an oxidizer and colorant in pyrotechnic products. The increasing utilization of strontium nitrate is expected to further boost its demand globally during the forecast period. Consequently, the increasing demand for strontium nitrate in the chemical industry to develop new products will open up substantial opportunities for industry players. Thus, these factors drive the Strontium market revenue.

Strontium Market Segment Insights

Strontium Product Insights

Based on Product, the Strontium market segmentation includes strontium carbonate, strontium sulfate, strontium nitrate, and strontium chlorates. The strontium chlorates category holds the largest market share due to the surging demand for fireworks across several countries.
