Global Boron Carbide (CAS 12069-32-8) Market by Manufacturers, Regions, Type and Application, Forecast to 2023

Boron Carbide is one of the hardest materials known, ranking third behind diamond and cubic boron nitride. Boron carbide powder is mainly produced by reacting carbon with B2O3 in an electric arc furnace, through carbothermal reduction or by gas phase reactions. For commercial use B4C powders usually need to be milled and purified to remove metallic impurities. Some of Boron Carbide’s unique properties include: high hardness, chemical inertness, and a high neutron absorbing cross section.

Scope of the Report:
This report focuses on the Boron Carbide (CAS 12069-32-8) in global market, especially in North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific, South America, Middle East and Africa. This report categorizes the market based on manufacturers, regions, type and application.
China is the dominate producer of boron carbide, the production was 8248 MT in 2015, accounting for about 70.79% of the total amount, followed by Europe, with the production market share of 22.37%. China has the highest production growth rate of 4.23% from 2011 to 2015. Even though a huge space for growth in the Chinese market exists, the quality and technology should be further improved.

At present, in the foreign industrial developed countries the boron carbide industry is generally at a more advanced level, meanwhile, these companies have more advanced equipment, strong R&D capabilities; the technical level is in a leading position. In terms of revenue, leading players in boron carbide industry are 3M, Dunhua Zhengxing Abrasive, Dalian Jinma Boron Technology, JSC "Zaporozhabrasive". 3M is the largest manufacturer, with the revenue market share of 18.74% in 2015. The top four companies occupied about 48.68% production share of the market in 2015.

Refractory materials accounted for the largest market with about 29.52% consumption share of the global boron carbide market in 2015. With over 20.82% in the boron carbide market, ballistic armour was the second largest application market in 2015.

Under the influence of raw material, market competitions and economic conditions, the price of boron carbide was fluctuation in recent years and was 17251 USD/MT in2015. In the next few years, we predict that price will decline. As competition intensifies, prices gap between different brands will go narrowing.

The worldwide market for Boron Carbide (CAS 12069-32-8) is expected to grow at a CAGR of roughly xx% over the next five years, will reach xx million US$ in 2023, from xx million US$ in 2017, according to a new GIR (Global Info Research) study.
