Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/2phkfx/flame_retardant) has announced the addition of the "Flame Retardant Market by Type and End-User Industry - Global Trends & Forecast to 2019" report to their offering. The flame retardant chemicals market has a significant number of small as well as few big manufacturers. The companies in the flame retardant chemicals market are segmented according to type of flame retardant chemicals produced by them. Some of the manufacturers focus on producing halogenated flame retardant chemicals, while others focus on producing non-halogenated flame retardant chemicals. In the flame retardant chemicals market, the companies are focusing on new product development to increase their product portfolio that suits various industries. On the other side, companies are also focusing on capacity expansion to increase their production capacities, which will further help them to cater to the rising demand. The flame retardant chemicals market has a specific set of raw materials; every flame retardant chemicals manufacturer uses different type of raw materials and ingredients to manufacture different types of flame retardant chemicals. The industry also lacks the need for bulk suppliers. The raw materials that are used in bulk are bromine, chlorine, aluminum, phosphorus, and others. Price increases in raw materials force the manufacturers to increase the price of flame retardant chemicals-based products, which creates a threat of reduction in the demand.

Predictably: Lithium Prices Plateau, Mining Juniors Falter and Investors Lose! - TRU Says Lithium Space Needs a Major Recharge!
PR Newswire - Mon Nov 03, 5:18AM CST
Lithium engineering consultants TRU says that lithium prices in 2014 have performed close to our prediction of five years ago. TRU president Edward Anderson says, "Latest Chile monthly export data shows lithium carbonate prices lower by 2.3% for the year at US$4,600 per t. This level is the new long term norm." (See TRU lithium price forecast chart 2009-2015 on our website). Prices are kept in check by new supply from pipeline projects and plant expansions by the big-three low-cost lithium producers - SQM, FMC and Rockwood Lithium. Albemarle Corporation (who recently acquired Rockwood) could add further to supply as it is now in a good strategic position to extract lithium as a by-product of its established brine-based bromine operation in Arkansas, USA.
