Global Magnesium Oxide Nanoparticle Market 2017-2021

Overview of the global magnesium oxide nanoparticle market

Magnesium oxide nanoparticles have superior properties such as high melting point, purity, and hardness. These nano-sized materials are non-toxic, tasteless, and odorless white powdered materials. Research analysis on the global magnesium oxide nanoparticle market identifies that these properties of magnesium oxide nanoparticles will be one of the major factors that will have a positive impact on the growth of the market. They are highly preferred over traditional organic chemicals such as phosphorus or halogen flame retardants because only a small amount of magnesium oxide nanoparticles is sufficient for any application. They are extensively used as reinforcement in the matrix of composites due to their properties such as refractoriness, high compressive strength, and wear resistance. Technavio’s market research analysts predict that this market will grow at a CAGR of close to 8% by 2021.

Manufacturers are synthesizing high-performance flame retardants using magnesium oxide nanoparticles. The increasing adoption of these nanoparticles as a flame retardant is identified as one of the key trends that will gain traction in the global magnesium oxide nanoparticle market for the next four years. The production process of flame-retardant fiber additives requires only a small amount of magnesium oxide powder. Furthermore, it has been estimated that the application of traditional organic phosphorus or halogen flame retardants will decline in APAC in the forthcoming years.
