붕산 시장 예측(-2030년) : 형태, 판매채널, 용도, 최종사용자, 지역별 세계 분석

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Boric Acid Market is accounted for $1.13 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach $1.66 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 6.6% during the forecast period. Boric acid is a chemical compound consisting of boron, oxygen, and hydrogen, commonly used in various industrial and household applications. It appears as a white, odorless powder or crystalline substance. Boric acid is primarily used as an antiseptic, insecticide, flame retardant, and preservative. In addition, it is employed in the manufacturing of glass, ceramics, and fiberglass. It also plays a role in pH buffering and as a catalyst in chemical reactions. While generally safe in small amounts, it can be toxic if ingested or improperly handled in large quantities.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Increasing demand for borosilicate glass

The increasing demand for borosilicate glass in the market is driven by its superior thermal resistance, chemical stability, and non-reactivity, making it ideal for laboratory equipment, cookware, and industrial applications. Borosilicate glass is preferred in high-temperature environments, as it can withstand rapid temperature changes without breaking. As industries like pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and food processing expand, the need for durable, heat-resistant materials like borosilicate glass grows, further fueling its demand in the market.

Restraint:

Health and environmental concerns

The market faces growing concerns due to its potential health and environmental risks. Prolonged exposure can lead to skin irritation, respiratory issues, and reproductive harm. It is toxic to aquatic life, causing disruptions in ecosystems. Improper disposal and overuse in agriculture contribute to soil and water contamination. These negative impacts have led to stricter regulations, limiting Boric Acid usage in certain industries, and driving demand for safer, eco-friendly alternatives.

Opportunity:

Rising awareness of energy efficiency

The rising awareness of energy efficiency is driving growth in the Market. As industries focus on reducing energy consumption and minimizing environmental impact, boric acid is gaining popularity due to its various applications, such as in flame retardants, glass manufacturing, and energy-efficient insulation materials. Its role in promoting energy savings and sustainability is fueling demand across diverse sectors, aligning with global efforts to reduce carbon footprints.

Threat:

Availability of substitutes

The availability of substitutes in the market poses a significant challenge. As alternatives like boron-free compounds and organic pesticides gain popularity, the demand for Boric Acid declines. These substitutes are often seen as safer and more environmentally friendly, reducing Boric Acid's market share. This shift can negatively impact the revenue of manufacturers, leading to increased competition and forcing companies to innovate or lower prices to remain competitive, affecting profitability and market stability.

Covid-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the market by causing supply chain interruptions, labor shortages, and reduced production capacity. Lockdowns and economic slowdowns led to decreased demand in industries like agriculture, manufacturing, and cosmetics. However, demand for disinfectants and sanitizers briefly boosted Boric Acid use in some segments. The overall market faced uncertainty, with slower recovery in some regions, as companies adapted to new health protocols and shifting market needs during and after the pandemic.

The glass industry segment is expected to be the largest market share during the forecast period

The glass industry segment is expected to account for the largest market share during the forecast period. It improves thermal and chemical resistance, enhances durability, and lowers the melting point of glass, making it easier to process. Boric Acid is also used in manufacturing glass for electronics, ceramics, and solar panels. However, increasing environmental and health concerns, along with the rise of alternative materials, may affect its demand in the glass industry, leading to market shifts.

The agriculture segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

Over the forecast period, the agriculture segment is predicted to witness the highest growth rate. It aids in the development of strong cell walls, enhances pollination, and boosts crop yields. However, concerns over overuse and environmental impact, such as soil toxicity and water contamination, have raised awareness. These concerns may lead to stricter regulations on Boric Acid use, influencing its demand in agricultural applications and encouraging alternative agricultural solutions.

Region with largest share:

During the forecast period, the North America region is expected to hold the largest market share. The U.S. is a key producer and consumer, using Boric Acid for applications such as fiberglass production, pest control, and as a fire retardant. However, rising health and environmental concerns, along with competition from alternative materials, pose challenges. Regulatory pressures may also affect market growth, pushing for sustainable and safer alternatives to Boric Acid in various sectors.

Region with highest CAGR:

Over the forecast period, the Asia Pacific region is anticipated to exhibit the highest CAGR. Rapid industrialization in countries like China and India is driving the demand for boric acid in sectors such as ceramics, and fiberglass production. Boric acid is increasingly used in agriculture to enhance soil health and promote plant growth, contributing to its rising demand in the region. Additionally, there is a growing emphasis on sustainable and eco-friendly boric acid products, aligning with global environmental trends and regulations.
