The global high purity alumina market size reached US$ 1.7 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, the publisher expects the market to reach US$ 6.3 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 24.4% during 2022-2028.
High purity alumina (HPA), or aluminum oxide, refers to processed non-metallurgical alumina. It is usually manufactured through the hydrolysis of aluminum oxide, hydrochloric acid leaching, underwater spark discharge with aluminum and vapor-phase oxidation processes. It can be classified into 4N, 5N and 6N, depending upon the level of purity and exhibits a high melting point, corrosion resistance and thermal stability. As a result, HPA finds extensive applications in the manufacturing of artificial sapphire substrates, light-emitting diodes (LEDs), semiconductors, lithium-ion batteries, smart electronic devices, ceramics, photovoltaic cells and artificial gemstones.
Significant growth in the electronics industry represents one of the key factors creating a positive outlook for the market. HPA is used to fabricate semiconductors, which are further utilized in the assembly of personal computers, tablets, gaming consoles, televisions and servers. Furthermore, the increasing product demand for the manufacturing of LED lights is also contributing to the market growth. Due to rising environmental consciousness, there is a shift in the consumer preference from traditionally used incandescent bulbs towards energy-efficient LED variants. HPA is also used as a coating on lithium-ion (LI-ion) battery separators used in electronic vehicles (EVs) to optimize efficiency and minimize emissions into the environment. Additionally, various product innovations, such as the development of ready-to-use medical bio-ceramics for orthopedic and dental implants, are augmenting the market growth. Other factors, including the widespread utilization of HPA for the production of sapphire with minimal flaws in the crystal lattice, along with extensive research and development (R&D) activities, are anticipated to drive the market further.
