Bismuth Market Analysis
The global bismuth market size reached 19.70 Thousand Tons in 2023. By 2032, IMARC Group expects the market to reach 23.86 Thousand Tons, at a projected CAGR of 2.15% during 2023-2032.
- Bismuth is essential in metallurgy, especially when used as an alloying element. Alloys like Wood's metal and Rose's metal, which contain bismuth, have super low melting points. This makes them incredibly handy for things like casting, soldering, and making thermal fuse components. These alloys flow really well, which is it is found in electrical safety devices and fire sprinkler systems where it's crucial to have precise temperature control.
- Bismuth oxychloride, a brilliant white powder, is frequently found in cosmetics, notably in foundations, blushes, and eye shadows. The skin's illuminating shine from its light-reflecting features is popular in products that enhance complexion and provide a radiant finish. Additionally, bismuth oxychloride is recognized for its silky texture that imparts a lavish sensation to cosmetic products. The IMARC Group has a prediction that the worldwide cosmetic industry will reach approximately US$ 618.7 billion by 2032.
- Bismuth compounds, such as bismuth subsalicylate, are frequently utilized in the field of medicine due to their antacid and anti-diarrheal properties. Bismuth subsalicylate is essential in medications for relieving digestive problems such as upset stomach, acid reflux, and loose stools. Its ability to protect the stomach lining provides pain relief and helps decrease symptoms. Furthermore, bismuth compounds possess antimicrobial properties that are beneficial for treating certain infections. Data released by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2023 highlighted the significant threat posed by antimicrobial resistance (AMR) to global health and development. This further escalated the demand for antimicrobials.
- Bismuth compounds are widely utilized in the electronics industry, especially in the production of semiconductors and thermoelectric materials. Bismuth telluride is appreciated for its thermoelectric characteristics, enabling it to convert heat into electricity and vice versa. This characteristic is essential in thermoelectric generators and coolers utilized in various applications like automotive waste heat recovery and electronic refrigeration systems. The IMARC Group predicts that the global semiconductor market will hit US$ 1,170.4 Billion by 2032.
