According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Magnesium Hydroxide Flame Retardants market size was valued at US$ 633 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 927 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 5.7% during review period.
Magnesium hydroxide flame retardant is a white or off-white crystalline powder. It mainly releases bound water when it is decomposed by heat and absorbs a large amount of latent heat to reduce the surface temperature of the synthetic material it fills in the flame, thereby achieving a flame retardant effect.
Magnesium hydroxide will decompose when heated (generally at 340-490℃), absorbing heat from the surface of the burning material, thereby achieving a flame retardant effect. The large amount of water vapor released during the decomposition process can dilute the oxygen on the surface of the fuel and further inhibit combustion. The active magnesium oxide generated by the decomposition will adhere to the surface of the combustible material to form a protective layer to prevent combustion.
Magnesium hydroxide flame retardant does not produce any harmful substances during the entire flame retardant process, and the decomposition product magnesium oxide has stable chemical properties and will not cause secondary pollution. Magnesium hydroxide flame retardant can also absorb harmful gases and smoke generated during the combustion process, and has a smoke suppression effect.
At present, the competition pattern of magnesium hydroxide flame retardant market is relatively complex, including state-owned enterprises, private enterprises, foreign-funded enterprises and other types of enterprises. These enterprises have their own advantages in technology, resources, market and other aspects, which together constitute the market competition pattern.
In the future, with the continuous innovation of technology and the increase of research and development efforts, the performance of magnesium hydroxide flame retardant will be further improved. At the same time, through compounding and modification with other materials, new flame retardant materials with better performance can be developed to meet the diversified needs of the market. With the continuous strengthening of environmental protection policies and the improvement of environmental awareness, magnesium hydroxide flame retardant as an environmentally friendly flame retardant will receive more policy support and market recognition. This will help promote the healthy development of the magnesium hydroxide flame retardant market.
The main global magnesium hydroxide flame retardant manufacturers include Martin Marietta, Kyowa Chemical Industry, Huber Engineered Materials (HEM), ICL, Russian Mining Chemical Company, etc. The top five magnesium hydroxide flame retardant manufacturers account for about 60% of the market share. Currently, North America is the world's largest consumer market for magnesium hydroxide flame retardants, accounting for about 30% of the market share, followed by Europe and China, which together account for nearly 55% of the market share.
