Salt Hydrate Market

Introduction

The Salt hydrate market report by Persistence Market Research covers information about market trends, volume (tonnes) and value (US$ Mn) projections, market dynamics and recent developments in the global salt hydrate market for the study period 2018 to 2026.

Salt Hydrate consists of inorganic salts and water. Salt hydrates have high latent heat of fusion, higher thermal conductivity than paraffin, small density changes and are slightly toxic and corrosive but compatible with plastics.

The global Salt Hydrate market is estimated to have been valued at 49,445.6 ‘000 US$ at 2017 end and is expected to reach 115,136.1 ‘000 US$ by the end of 2026 while expanding at a CAGR of 10.1% over the forecast period. The global Salt Hydrate market is anticipated to represent incremental opportunity of 61,283.5 ‘000 US$ between 2018 and 2026.

Increasing Number of Cold Supply Chain Facilities and Warehouses Assisting the Demand for Salt Hydrate

Increase in the food & beverage production across various countries is expected to push the demand for warehouses and cold supply chain facilities. With the increase in number of cold supply chain facilities, the demand for salt hydrate based phase change materials is also expected to grow, which, in turn, will drive the global salt hydrate market over the forecast period.

Salt hydrates are one of the most promising cold storage media for air conditioning systems and heating and cooling applications owing to their high energy storage density and capacity to store energy at near constant temperatures.

Development of Salt Hydrate for Chilled Ceilings and Cold Storage Systems

Apart from their application in freezers, salt hydrates are also used in air conditioning systems and cold storage systems as their temperature is similar to the temperature of evaporation refrigeration host and their density is higher than water.

In various residential as well a commercial buildings, it is important to maintain temperatures during summers as well as winters. Hence, the researchers have developed salt hydrates that are suitable as storage materials in centralized cold storage systems and chilled ceilings.

Others (Electronics, textile) Segment to Register Highest Value and Volume CAGR among All End-use Industry Segments in the Salt Hydrate Market

Amongst all end-use industries analyzed in this global salt hydrate market study, the others segment which includes electronics and textile industry is expected to register about 2.2X growth in terms of value. In the recent past, utilization of PCMs in heat transfer applications and textile substrates has been enormous in terms of quantity.

In terms of incremental opportunity, Pharmaceutical & Building & Construction segments, together, are expected to account for more than 75% of the overall incremental opportunity created during the forecast years in the global salt hydrate market.

Europe to Remain High Value Region for Salt Hydrate Market

Introduction of stringent environmental regulations pertaining to energy storage systems in buildings is expected to push the demand for phase change materials, such as salt hydrates in Europe.

South East Asia & Pacific region is expected to register 2.5X growth in the salt hydrates market. Various countries, including India, China, Japan, etc., are expected to show significant growth during the latter half of the forecast period in the salt hydrate market owing to the increase in demand from manufacturing sector as well as pharmaceutical transportation sector. All the other regions are expected to exhibit relatively moderate growth over the forecast period in the global salt hydrates market.
