Market Overview of Global Metakaolin market:
According to our latest research, the global Metakaolin market looks promising in the next 5 years. As of 2022, the global Metakaolin market was estimated at USD XX million, and it's anticipated to reach USD XX million in 2028, with a CAGR of XX% during the forecast years.
Metakaolin is the anhydrous calcined form of the clay mineral kaolinite. Minerals that are rich in kaolinite are known as china clay or kaolin, traditionally used in the manufacture of porcelain. The particle size of metakaolin is smaller than cement particles, but not as fine as silica fume.
Due to COVID-19, the kaolin industry has suffered a huge impact. Workers stay at home and cannot work due to the impact of COVID-19. The output of kaolin has been greatly reduced, and the output of metakaolin made from kaolin has also declined. However, as China and other regions become more and more successful in preventing and controlling the epidemic, the kaolin market will slowly recover, and the metakaolin market will continue to grow.
Infrastructure development
Metakaolin is different from other auxiliary cementing materials such as fly ash, slag or silica fume because it is not a by-product of industrial processes; it is manufactured for specific purposes under controlled conditions. It can be widely used in ceramics, construction, refractory materials, casting, frit, glass fiber, glass wool, ceramic fiber, adhesives, plastics, rubber, etc. The survey results show that infrastructure construction is the main consumption area of metakaolin, with a market share of 49.62% in 2015. As the economy develops, these industries will need more metakaolin. Therefore, metakaolin has huge market potential.
Economic development
Due to the growth of the construction industry in the Asia-Pacific region, especially China, Japan and India, and the increase in government spending in developing countries, the metakaolin market has seen significant growth. For technical, economic and environmental reasons, metakaolin is widely accepted by cement in the construction industry as a supplementary material for structural concrete. With the continuous development of infrastructure projects in developing countries in the Asia-Pacific region, the metakaolin market will continue to expand.
The price and output of kaolin
Metakaolin is different from other auxiliary cementing materials such as fly ash, slag or silica fume, because it is not a by-product of an industrial process. It is manufactured using kaolin as a raw material for specific purposes under controlled conditions. Therefore, the price and output of kaolin determine the cost and output of metakaolin.
