Xanthates Market Analysis
The xanthates market is expected to register a CAGR of over 5% during the forecast period.
The mining industry was one of the most affected industries in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, with prolonged lockdowns and stringent social distancing norms leading to a lack of labor and supply chain disruptions across the globe. With many mines temporarily shutting down, demand for the xanthates market dropped drastically during the pandemic.
- With the manufacturing and services sector steadily recovering from the aftermath of the pandemic, mining activities are now returning to pre-pandemic activity levels, indicating growing demand for xanthates in the market. The widening usage of xanthates in rubber processing is expected to strengthen this demand further.
- However, the emergence of xanthates replacement technology which could potentially provide higher performance and safer handling and disposal, may hinder the market growth. Environmental regulations associated with mining activities could additionally weaken demand for the xanthates market.
- On the flip side, growing research around the development of bio-based xanthate-based flotation agents could lead to market opportunities in the long run.
- The Asia-Pacific region is expected to dominate the global xanthates market during the forecast period.
