Alumina Trihydrate Production Cost Analysis

Report Overview:

Alumina trihydrate, or Alumina Hydrate, is a white, translucent, inorganic amphoteric compound naturally found in gibbsite. The element demonstrates a very low solubility in water and dissolves in both strong alkalis and acids. It is produced using the Bayer process, where the aluminium ore is dissolved in sodium hydroxide at elevated temperatures to obtain alumina trihydrate. It is then converted to aluminium oxide that is used to manufacture aluminum. Currently, it is available in gel and powdered forms in the market. Alumina trihydrate is largely used as a flame retardant and chemically added to a polymer molecule to suppress the spreading of a flame through a plastic. It is also used as an antacid that can be ingested to buffer the pH within the stomach. Additionally, alumina trihydrate possesses a neutral pH level, making it an ideal component for formulating various cosmetic products.

The global market is primarily driven by the low cost of aluminium trihydrate retardant and the rising product demand across the paper and water treatment industries due to its various advantages. In line with this, the increasing infrastructure activities across the globe have increased the possibilities of fire-related accidents. This, in turn, has fueled the use of flame retardants in the building and construction sector to meet the mandated stringent fire safety regulations and protocols by governments, thus acting as a growth-inducing factor. Moreover, the shifting preference of the manufacturers in the electronic industry toward halogen materials to produce electric wire insulation, circuit boards, and cables and wire systems due to their fire-resistant properties is providing a considerable thrust to the market. Furthermore, the high strength, water resistance, and lightweight properties of alumina trihydrate have significantly surged its demand in the automobile industry, which is creating a positive to the market. Other factors, such as rising investments in research and development (R&D) activities, the increasing demand for environment-friendly non-halogenated flame retardants, and the surging application of alumina trihydrate in the treatment of heartburn and gastroesophageal reflux, are positively contributing to the market.
