Report Description
The global chromium oxide market size was around USD 551.13 million in 2022 and is estimated to reach USD 826.11 million by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 4.6% during the forecast period, 2023–2031. The market growth is attributed to the rising product demand due to the rise in the steel and construction industries.
Chromium oxide is an inorganic compound. Chromium oxide has properties including wear resistance, resistance to chemicals, and abrasion resistance. Thus, chromium oxide is used in paints, coatings, inks, glass, and ceramics. Chromium oxide is also used in various chemical reactions as a catalyst. It provides dispersibility and heat stability.
It is available in the form of pieces, powder, pellets, and nano powder. Chromium oxide is recognized as a chrome green and chromia owing to its green color. Chrome oxide is used in industrial paints, which are subjected to a lot of wear and tear. For instance, military vehicles are painted with green chrome oxide paint.
This paint makes vehicles suitable for outdoor applications as it preserves painted color when exposed to high heat and sun. Chromium oxide is widely used in glass manufacturing as it provides green color to the glass. Green-colored glass bottles are used for wines and juice. Chromium oxide helps in preserving the flavor of the wine.
It also allows some light protection to preserve the wine’s flavor. The manufacturing industry mostly used green and amber colors for wine bottles. Moreover, the intensity of the color can be changed by varying concentration levels. As per the International Organization of Vine and Wine (OIV), global wine consumption and production increased by 1.7% and 13% respectively.
COVID-19 Impact on Chromium Oxide Market
The research report finds that the COVID-19 pandemic affected various industries. The COVID-19 pandemic affected the architectural and industrial sectors and highlighted a number of difficulties for the paints and coatings industry. The pandemic has a significant impact on the building sector, though the legal ramifications differ from place to region and contract to contract.
Moreover, the pandemic has had a negative impact on the building industry, which is producing disruptions and delays that are linked to various broken supply chains. Various automotive manufacturers have a stop their manufacturing plants during the pandemic due to the labor shortage. Moreover, global automotive light vehicle sales have dropped by 20% from 2019-2020.
Many companies are resuming public transportation services, thus implementing various safety procedures & norms which is expected to favor the global chromium oxide market.
