Corrosion Resistant Alloys Market: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges
Based on our research output, there has been a negative impact on the market growth during and post COVID-19 era. The growing shale gas exploration is notably driving the corrosion-resistant alloys market growth, although factors such as fluctuation in raw material prices may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the corrosion-resistant alloys industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Corrosion Resistant Alloys Market Driver
The growing shale gas exploration is one of the key factors driving the growth of the global corrosion-resistant alloys market. The demand for corrosion-resistant alloys is growing due to the advances in technologies such as the hydraulic fracturing technique, which is used for extracting shale gas. In recent years, shale gas is produced in China, Canada, and the US, with its reserves present across the world. In addition, the newest technology (hydraulic fracturing technique) has led to the refracturing of older shale wells, thereby, increasing production without incurring the costs of a new well. Old wells or underperforming wells are now functional using the new hydraulic simulation. The potential to extract shale gas through fracking has increased global gas reserves and improved energy security. The growth in shale gas production has reduced energy prices, benefitting global economic growth. Shale gas is the least carbon-intensive fossil fuel. Therefore, with the growth of the shale gas market and shale gas extraction, the demand for corrosion-resistant alloys will augment during the forecast period.
Key Corrosion Resistant Alloys Market Trend
The growing investment in the defense industry will fuel the global corrosion-resistant alloys market growth. Countries such as China, the US, Russia, Saudi Arabia, India, Japan, and France are expected to increase their aerospace and defense budgets. This is owing to the resurgence of global security threats. Several governments across the world have already started increasing their defense budgets to address security threats. For instance, in 2021, China announced an over 6.5% increase in its defense budget. The country’s defense budget increased from around $185 billion in 2020 to over $200 billion in 2021. The growing demand for fighter and bomber aircraft is also expected to foster the demand for high-performance, corrosion-resistant alloys that are used in such aircraft. Similarly, in the 2020 defense budget of the US, the government announced $146 billion for military hardware, which included $1.87 billion for 98 F-35 aircraft and eight F-15EX aircraft to recapitalize the F-15C/D fleet. In May 2020, India announced that it would invest around $17 billion in inducting 114 medium-weight multirole fighters. The aircraft will be built in India with a significant transfer of foreign technology but no foreign procurements. Such investments in fighter jets will foster the demand for high-performance corrosion-resistant alloys during the forecast period.
Key Corrosion Resistant Alloys Market Challenge
The fluctuation in raw material prices is a major challenge for the global corrosion-resistant alloys market growth. Nickel, titanium, iron, chromium, cobalt, and molybdenum are some of the raw materials used in the manufacturing of corrosion-resistant alloys. The market is significantly dependent on the availability of these metals from the mining industry. The fluctuations in the prices of metals significantly impact the cost of corrosion-resistant alloys. For instance, the price of cobalt metal fluctuated between $15.75 to 16.75/lb. in the first year of January 2020. This fluctuation in the prices of metals has impacted the global corrosion-resistant alloys market. The economic scenario also plays a crucial role in the pricing of raw materials. The pricing structure of raw materials differs from one region to another based on import and export tariffs. The economic uncertainty affects the prices of raw materials and, subsequently, impacts the price of corrosion-resistant alloys. For instance, the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 led to supply chain disruptions across the globe and negatively impacted industrial production and alloy production. Thus, fluctuations in raw material prices are a challenge to market growth.
