Market Definition 

Potassium hydroxide, also called caustic potash, is an inorganic compound produced by the electrolysis of potassium chloride using membrane cell technology. In this report, the market size was estimated based on the revenue generated from the sale of the chemical to end-use industries.

Market Dynamics and Customer Landscape

The market is driven by its versatile applications in various industries. This inorganic compound with the formula KOH, also known as lye, potash lye, or caustic potash, is produced through a reaction between potassium carbonate and calcium hydroxide in a salt metathesis reaction, resulting in solid calcium carbonate and a solution of potassium hydroxide in water. It is available in various forms including white to slightly yellow lumps, pellets, flakes, and rods. It is used in chemical manufacturing, petroleum refining, soft soap making, and in the food industry as a thickening agent and pH control agent. It is also essential in the fertilizer industry and finds applications in pharmaceuticals, electronics, agriculture, and glass manufacturing, contributing to the growth of the market. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers, trends, and challenges will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage. 

Key Market Driver

One of the key factors driving the market growth is the growing demand for potassium carbonate. One of the main uses of KOH is as a raw material or chemical intermediate in the production of various end-use products in industries like detergents, glass, cosmetics, food, pharmaceuticals, and agriculture. The market is experiencing growth, driven significantly by increasing demand from the glass industry. Furthermore, the global preference for automatic washing machines has been fueling the demand for liquid laundry detergents, which in turn drives the market demand. This trend is particularly notable in industries such as chemical manufacturing, petroleum refining, food & beverages, pharmaceuticals, electronics, agriculture, and glass. The diverse range of applications is expected to propel the growth of the KOH market in the forecast period.

Significant Market Trends

A key factor shaping the market growth is capacity expansions and new plants. Due to the growing demand for caustic potash-based consumer products, potassium salts, pharmaceuticals, and household cleaning products, the global market has been witnessing expansion in production capacities.

As a result, the markets in North America, APAC, and Europe have developed rapidly due to the continuous expansion of production capacities. For instance,  in February 2018, Akzo Nobel and Evonik Industries began production using membrane electrolysis technology at their new joint venture (JV) plant in Ibbenburen, Germany. Hence, the rapid development and expansion of the capacity of plants are expected to significantly drive the market growth during the forecast period.

Major Market Challenge

The presence of less expensive substitutes is one of the key challenges hindering growth. One of the key challenges faced by the market is from less expensive substitutes, including sodium hydroxide and calcium hydroxide. For instance, sodium hydroxide pellets are a less expensive substitute that is widely used as a replacement as they give good results with less quantity of catalyst.

Sodium hydroxide is less expensive than caustic potash as the cost of sodium hydroxide production (from sodium chloride, common salt, which is inexpensive) can be around 1/3 of the cost of its production. As a result,  manufacturers tend to prefer sodium hydroxide over caustic potash as it is cheaper, and often a lesser quantity of sodium hydroxide serves the purpose. Hence, such factors are expected to hinder the market during the forecast period.
