The global Zirconium Nitride market is expected to exhibit a CAGR of around 8.3% during the analysis period.

Increasing Demand from Automobile and Industrial Applications

Zirconium Nitride is a very hard material; hence, it is mainly applied as a hard coating for different machine tools. Major applications of machine tools coated with Zirconium Nitride include machining various alloys such as copper, aluminum, titanium, and brass. With the rising demand for machining tools, the demand for Zirconium Nitride is expected to be increased consistently. Secondly, Zirconium Nitride is also growing in popularity among automobile & aerospace manufacturers on account of its excellent ability to withstand corrosive environments. Medical devices are another important outlet for the growth of Zirconium Nitride. Zirconium Nitride offers an excellent alternative to titanium nitride. Zirconium Nitride exhibits better corrosion resistance and provides superior surface properties required in the medical device field.

Impact of COVID 19

COVID 19 has inflicted a severe impact on the global Zirconium Nitride industry. It affected the sales of Zirconium Nitride, and the global Zirconium Nitride market reported around a 20.1% decline in its revenue as compared to 2019. However, with the lifting of the restrictions, the production of zirconium nitrate has increased, and the demand is also recovering steadily from different industries. As a result, the global Zirconium Nitride market is anticipated to attain pre-COVID 19 levels soon.

Asia-Pacific to Dominate the global Zirconium Nitride market

Asia-Pacific is expected to command the global Zirconium Nitride market throughout the forecast period. The region maintained its dominance amid COVID 19 pandemic by holding almost one-third of the total revenue generated by this industry in 2020. The Asia Pacific is dominating the global automobile industry with the highest ever production as well as demand. China, South Korea, India, and Japan collectively hold over 35% share of total production and demand for automobiles worldwide. With increasing applications of Zirconium Nitride in the automobile industry, the demand is likely to be high over the foreseen period.

Increasing Demand for Industrial-grade Zirconium Nitride

Zirconium Nitride has a wide application base and is available in various grades suitable for various applications. Agricultural Grade, food grade, industrial grade, optical grade, and pharmaceutical grade are the major grades of zirconium nitride. All industrial-grade zirconium nitride is growing at a rapid pace among all grades. The huge demand for industrial-grade zirconium nitride is attributed to the demand for non-corrosive coating in automobiles, aerospace, and industrial cutting tools. In addition, the need for coating for crucibles and other medical devices drives the demand for pharmaceutical-grade zirconium nitrate.

Demand from Automobile Industry is Growing at a Steady Pace

Agriculture, automotive, aerospace, coating, food, equipment, industrial cutting tools, and pharmaceutical are some important applications for Zirconium Nitride. Zirconium Nitride is mainly used in different applications owing to its better wear & tear properties and outstanding corrosion resistance. Hence it is mainly employed in applications where such properties are necessary. Likewise, zirconium nitride coating is provided to prevent corrosion in automobile parts. As a result, the automobile sector accounted for nearly 15.6% of the overall revenue generated by the global Zirconium Nitride Industry in 2020.

American Elements and Japan New Metals Co Ltd are some of the leading manufacturers of Zirconium Nitride. Most manufacturers are trying to increase their market presence by strengthening their distribution channels. Many China-based players manufacture Zirconium Nitride, including Jinzhou Haixin Metal Materials Co Ltd, Shandong Honrel Co Limited, Shanghai St-Nano Science & Technology Co Ltd, etc. Capacity expansion is a major strategy adopted by the key players to enhance their foothold in the global market.
