Global Specialty Chemicals Market 2014-2018: Trend of Mergers and Acquisitions Expected to Continue in the High Growth Areas of Latin America and the APAC Region
M2 - Fri Mar 07, 6:32AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/kqdpg3/global_specialty) has announced the addition of the "Global Specialty Chemicals Market 2014-2018" report to their offering. The analysts forecast the Global Specialty Chemicals market to grow at a CAGR of 5.16 percent over the period 2013-2018. One of the key factors contributing to this market growth is the growing demand for specialty chemicals products in the rapidly developing countries of the APAC region. The Global Specialty Chemicals market has also been witnessing the increase in mergers and acquisitions through which key players in the market are increasing their penetration in the emerging economies. However, the increasingly stringent health and environmental regulations could pose a challenge to the growth of this market. Key vendors dominating this space are 3M Company, AkzoNobel NV, Arkema SA, BASF SE, Bayer AG, Clariant AG, Dow Chemical Co., Evonik Industries Inc., Ecolab Inc., E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Co., Henkel AG & Co. KGaA, Koninklijke DSM NV, PPG Industries Inc., Solvay-Rhodia, and Syngenta AG. Other vendors mentioned in the report are Ashland Inc., Avery Dennison Corp., DIC Corp., Eastman Chemical Co., Givaudan SA, Honeywell International Inc., Huntsman Corp., Lonza Group, Lubrizol Corp., Merck KGaA, Momentive Performance Materials Holdings Inc., Monsanto Co., RPM International Inc., Sherwin-Williams Co., Shin-Etsu Chemical Co. Ltd., Toray Industries Inc., Valspar Corp., and Wacker Chemie AG. Commenting on the report, an analyst from the team said: Many SMEs involved in chemical manufacturing are effective in the production of specialty chemicals for niche markets, though they lack in logistics for manufacturing specialty chemicals in bulk. Since the Specialty Chemicals market is highly fragmented, the key players are trying to gain more market share through the mergers and acquisitions of smaller firms. This trend will help the large vendors to grow and improve their networks at a faster pace. Moreover, the mergers and acquisitions strategy will help the bigger players to penetrate the markets in the emerging economies of Latin America and the APAC region. Global chemical manufacturers that have a large geographic presence, diversified product portfolio, and technical expertise for providing VAS are preferred by large industrial consumers. The mergers and acquisitions strategy serves all three main purposes of improving efficiency, diversifying product portfolio, and expanding the vendors' geographic presence.

Global Permanent Magnet Market (NdFeB, Ferrite, SmCo, Alnico) Report, 2018
M2 - Mon Jan 13, 10:28AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/49554f/permanent_magnet) has announced the addition of the "Global Permanent Magnet Market (NdFeB, Ferrite, SmCo, Alnico) Report, 2018" report to their offering. The permanent magnet market is growing with increasing number of applications in several industries. Quite a few associations and government authorities are taking the initiative for further research and development of permanent magnets to expand the technological know-how and applications of permanent magnets. For example, IEEE Magnetics (U.S.) focuses on basic development, designs, and applications of magnetic devices. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) (U.S.) focuses on the development of measurements, standards, and technology to improve the productivity of the product. Most of the companies have been focusing mainly on R&D in order to develop new and improved products. The companies have extensively applied expansion (either geographic or capacity expansion) as a growth strategy for this market, to increase their market share. SmCo magnets can be used for the widest temperature range, followed by Alnico magnets. But their magnetic properties are not that high. Ferrite magnets are the cheapest permanent magnets, hence they are consumed in the largest proportion, but their usage is limited by an operable temperature range and lower magnetic energy product. The NdFeB magnet has confined usage in high temperature applications. But in combination with cobalt and dysprosium its temperature properties are enhanced and used widely in applications where miniaturization is an important design criterion. The permanent magnets market is analyzed in terms of revenue ($million) and consumption (KT) for all regions, and their respective major countries. Revenues from each region have been broken down by major end-user industries, namely, consumer electronics, general industrial, automotive, medical technology, environment & energy, aerospace & defense, and other end-user industries. Also, the types of permanent magnets that are identified and included are NdFeB, Ferrite, SmCo, and Alnico.

Global Permanent Magnet Report 2013-2018: NdFeB, Ferrite, SmCo, Alnico
M2 - Fri Nov 15, 5:58AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/k5rcp2/permanent_magnet) has announced the addition of the "Global Permanent Magnet Report 2013-2018: NdFeB, Ferrite, SmCo, Alnico" report to their offering. The permanent magnet market is witnessing very high growth on account of rising demand for efficiency and increased electrification in all facets of life. The demand for permanent magnets is growing, especially from the automotive and wind energy sectors. It is increasingly used for electric power steering, electric vehicles, and hybrid vehicles. The wind turbine market is another major growth area for permanent magnet. China is a dominant player in the rare earth permanent magnet. Permanent magnet are made of diverse materials that range from ferrite to rare earth elements. NdFeB permanent magnet, due to their wide areas of applications and numerous advantages, are used in most of the industries. Hence they dominated the market. Presently, China has the monopoly in the supply of rare earth minerals that are necessary to produce rare earth magnets. It has huge reserves of rare earth minerals that account for 23% of the world's total rare earth reserves. China produces a vast quantity of two primarily important rare earth minerals required to produce , dysprosium (production share of 99%) and neodymium (production share of 95%). The Chinese government is taking strategic steps to maintain its leading position as a supplier of rare earth minerals as well as to secure rare earth reserves for its own internal consumption. It has restricted rare earth annual export quotas to less than 35,000 tonnes. The Chinese government is also taking measures to curb non-licensed mining and export of rare earth minerals. The supply constraints from China results in high volatility in the prices of rare earth minerals that results in high prices for rare earth magnets. Due to the supply constraint from China, other countries across the globe are finding new ways to reduce the dependence on China for the rare earth minerals. They are finding new ways to diversifying global rare earth supply chain, development of alternative materials, and more efficient use of rare earth, including recycling. The U.S. government is keen on domestic production of the entire supply chain of permanent magnet which are critical for the defense and energy. Many governments are encouraging their manufacturers to develop alternative technologies to reduce or no use of rare earth in the production rare earth magnets.
