Chemical Industry Updates

  The inorganic chemicals market is a crucial segment of the global chemical industry, encompassing a diverse range of chemical compounds that do not contain carbon-hydrogen (C-H) bonds. These chemicals play a pivotal role in various industrial applications, including manufacturing, construction, agriculture, electronics, and more. Inorganic chemicals are typically derived from minerals, ores, and other naturally occurring sources, as well as through various chemical synthesis processes. Key Types of Inorganic Chemicals : Acids and Bases: Inorganic acids (e.g., sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid) and bases (e.g., sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide) are fundamental chemicals used in numerous industrial processes, including pH regulation, chemical synthesis, and metal processing. Salts: Inorganic salts, such as sodium chloride (table salt), calcium carbonate, and ammonium nitrate, are utilized in applications ranging from food preservation to fertilizers and water treatment. Metals and

  Inorganic chemicals are a combination of two or more elements other than carbon. Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, carbides, carbonates, and cyanides are exceptions, as these are inorganic chemicals despite having carbon. Market size: The global inorganic chemicals market size was valued at $277.0 billion in 2017 and is projected to reach $362.0 billion by 2022, growing at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period.
