Calcined Alumina Powder Market Growth Accelerated by Increasing Adoption in Refractory Sector
Calcined alumina powder is widely used as an additive to
improve the mechanical strength and thermal shock resistance of ceramics, which
are used in refractory, abrasives and various other industrial applications.
Refractory ceramics with calcined alumina powder offer advantages such as
exceptional thermal stability, resistance to thermal shock and low thermal
conductivity. Rapid industrialization along with growth in iron & steel
industry is driving the demand for refractory materials globally which in turn
is contributing to the growing adoption of calcined alumina powder. The global
Calcined Alumina Powder Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 21405.49 Mn in
2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 5.8% over the forecast period 2023 to
2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
Market key trends
