North America accounts for a significant share in the beryllium hydroxide market owing to the robustly growing economies within the region. The United States provides considerable growth opportunity to the industry owing to the availability of advanced technology in the region. Furthermore, the demand for the product is expected to increase in emerging regions like the Asia-Pacific and the Middle East and Africa, owing to the growing urbanisation and rapid industrialisation.
Market Segmentation
Beryllium hydroxide, also known as hydrated beryllia, is an amphoteric hydroxide with a chemical formula BeH2O2. It can dissolve in both acids and alkalis. At an industrial scale, beryllium hydroxide is obtained as a by-product in the extraction of beryllium metal from bertrandite and beryl ores. The compound is the universal raw material used in the manufacture of beryllium and all its forms.Based on type, the market is divided into:
- Technical Grade
- Refined Grade
Based on application, the industry is being segmented into:
- Beryllium Oxide
- Beryllium Metal
- Beryllium Alloys
On the basis of end-use, the industry is divided into:
- Aerospace
- Automotive
- Energy
- Medical
- Defence
- Electrical and Electronics
- Others
The regional markets for the product include:
- North America
- Europe
- Asia-Pacific
- Latin America
- Middle East and Africa
Market Analysis
The growing demand for highly secure defence systems, increased consumption of energy, increased sales of vehicles, and the requirement for enhanced telecommunications networks are the factors augmenting the growth of the industry. The increasing population and rapid urbanisation are leading to a rise in the demand for biomedical devices and electrical equipment, which is further supporting the market growth.Moreover, there has been an increased demand for beryllium hydroxide, especially to obtain beryllium and its derivatives. Beryllium is known for its excellent electrical and thermal conductivities and permeability to X-rays. It can be utilised as a neutron source owing to its low atomic number. The low neutron absorptive power and high-scattering cross-section of the product makes it an ideal reflector/moderator in structural materials used in nuclear facilities.
The construction of the ITER fusion reactor, along with growing research and development activities, is expected to aid the market growth in the coming years. The technology required to produce this fusion energy demands the use of beryllium and other high-performance materials. This is expected to have a positive effect on the expansion of the global beryllium hydroxide market.
