Praseodymium Production Cost Analysis

Report Overview:

Praseodymium (Pr) is a moderately soft, malleable, ductile, and silvery-white rare earth metal that occurs naturally in monazite and bastnaesite minerals in the earth’s crust. It is commercially separated and purified using ion exchange and solvent extraction methods.  Praseodymium is widely used in alloys, color glasses, carbon arc electrodes, permanent magnets, aircraft engines, fiber optic cables, and rechargeable batteries. It is a solid, paramagnetic, and monoisotopic element with a high melting and boiling point. Praseodymium also offers magnetic, electrical, and optical properties and reacts readily with oxygen, hot water, halogens, and acids.

The rising product utilization to manufacture high-power neodymium iron boron (NdFeB) magnets that find extensive applications in motors, electric vehicles (EVs), wind turbines, sensors, medical devices, hard disc drives, and audio equipment is one of the primary factors driving the market growth. Furthermore, the widespread product adoption in the aerospace industry as an alloying agent with magnesium to fabricate high-strength materials for aircraft engines is providing an impetus to the market growth. In addition to this, the rising product adoption to produce mischmetal, an alloy used in cigarette lighters to make flints, is acting as another growth-inducing factor. Apart from this, the increasing utilization of the compound to manufacture didymium glass, which is used in goggles to protect the eyes of glassblowers and welders, is propelling the market growth. Additionally, the extensive utilization of the new solid-phase extraction technique for separating rare earth elements, such as praseodymium, owing to its high enrichment factor, reduced solvent consumption, rapid adsorption kinetics, and minimized waste generation, is positively influencing the market growth. Moreover, the widespread product utilization in high-intensity carbon arc lights used in the film industry for studio lighting and projection is favoring the market growth. Other factors, including increasing product incorporation in nickel metal hydride (NiMH) rechargeable batteries, automotive exhaust catalytic converters, and household equipment, such as color televisions and fluorescent lamps, are anticipated to drive the market growth.
