Titanium Ore Market Likely to Make Steady Progress due to Growing Demand from Automotive, Aerospace and Healthcare Industries Forecast to 2023. Titanium ore is a mineral containing titanium metal in the form of compounds and concentrations. It is generated by the destruction of an altar with pwnhammer and can also be obtained by opening crates. Rutile and Ilmenite are the major sources of titanium ore. Ilmenite is used as the primary source for producing titanium metal after removing iron by chlorination process. Ilmenite is converted into synthetic rutile for manufacturing titanium dioxide by two processes namely chloride and sulfate process. It is extensively used in building engines, airframes, missiles, and production of welding electrodes. It is used in cosmetic products to reduce harmful effects of ultraviolet light on the skin.
Synthetic rutile is increasingly used as a feedstock for producing titanium dioxide pigments. Surging demand for the product from various industries such as electrical, aerospace and defense owing to corrosion resistance is driving the market growth. Use of white pigments, which is synthesized using titanium dioxide, is increasing in the packaging and paints sector due to its superior properties such as high refractive index, brightness, opacity. Inc. Rapid industrialization and rising disposable income of the consumers in the developing economies are expected to fuel the demand in the global market. The abundance of ilmenite in various countries such as India, the U.S., Canada, Australia, and South Africa is expected to boost the growth of the market. The flourishing automotive market in the emerging economies is likely to augment the market growth in the coming years. The demand for titanium dioxide is surging in various major end-use industries across the globe due to the important properties such as light scattering and high transparency. Increasing prevalence of titanium metal in biomedical applications such as surgical devices, dental implants, and bone plates is expected to drive the market.
However, hazardous waste generated during the process of manufacturing titanium dioxide is likely to fetch some strict regulatory measures, which may hamper the growth of the market during the review period.
