Anhydrous Aluminium Chloride Market Size (2023-2028):

Anhydrous Aluminium Chloride Market was valued at 805 million USD and has been witnessing positive growth rates in the past few years. It is also expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.2% during the outlook period of 2023-2028

The growth rate in the worldwide anhydrous aluminium chloride market is attributed to the rising need for this product in various end-use industries. Anhydrous aluminium chloride acts as a catalyst in various chemical processes and thus enables a faster and smoother reaction. The market is driven by the heavy implications of the compound in many chemical industries. It is very economic and requires low set-up time and thus it attracts different industry verticals. In addition to this, the trend for dyeing is increasing. They are also used as raw materials in the manufacturing of fumed alumina, the production of aluminium and as a nucleating agent for the making of titanium oxide.

Aluminium scrap and chlorine are some of the raw materials required for manufacturing this anhydrous aluminium chloride. Aluminium scrap is obtained from several sources, where one of them being scrap dealers, and chlorine is sourced from various caustic soda and chlorine producers. As the production of anhydrous aluminium chloride is heavily dependent on the supply of chlorine, the production price of this chloride varies as per the supplier price of chlorine and the availability of the aluminium scrap.

The Anhydrous Aluminium Chloride market is segmented as powder, granules and crystals based on their form. The granular segment is estimated to register the dominant share in the worldwide market over the forecast period. End-use industries such as pesticides, chemical manufacturing and pharmaceuticals are increasing the demand for anhydrous aluminium chloride around the world.

Anhydrous Aluminium Chloride Market Drivers & Restraints

The rise in the use of Anhydrous Aluminium Chloride in various industries has demanded a more systematic market instead of the present fragmented style. Many medium and large players are coming up with new technologies in the advanced products prepared with the Anhydrous AlCl3 so that it can be used for various sectors. The agricultural sector is also one of the reasons for the growth as it is used as a pesticide on farms & thereby, increasing the demand for the respective product.

Anhydrous Aluminium Chloride is used as a catalyst in Dye manufacturing. In terms of numbers, 24 % of the global Anhydrous Aluminium Chloride is represented only by the Dye manufacturing industry. The rise in the dye market is directly related to the growth in this market.

It is also one of the key materials in the cosmetics, & pharmaceutical industry which is also responsible for the boom in the market. The increase in harmful waste produced due to manufacturing, high maintenance cost & a lot of labour need is some of the hindering factors for the growth of the market. Strict Environmental policies & lack of awareness & maintenance of toxic effluents are also some of the reasons inhibiting the growth of the market.

In terms of region, the Asia Pacific (APAC) region is expected to dominate the global anhydrous aluminium chloride market during the outlook period. The cheap labour associated with many Asian countries is surfacing many investment opportunities for key market players in this locale. In 2019, the Asia Pacific region accounted for more than 39% of the total market share across the globe. North America is the second-largest market that is growing at a CAGR of 4 % during the past few years. The presence of some of the leading players and the increasing investments by these players in the development of innovative products is also acting positively for the development of the North American anhydrous aluminium chloride market.

Europe is another prominent region in the worldwide market that is anticipated to register significant growth in the coming years, owing the supportive government initiatives in several developed nations. Nonetheless, the market in the regions of Latin America and the Middle East and Africa is also estimated to progress with a considerable development rate in the foreseen period.

Recent Developments:

  • Recently, 3D hierarchical AlV3O9 microspheres were developed that can be used as a cathode material for rechargeable Aluminium – ion batteries. AlV3O9 electrodes made of nanosheets can be used as a cathode material with Aluminium chloride as electrolyte & Aluminium metal as cathode material in Al–ion batteries. These batteries exhibited very good electrochemical performance as the Columbia efficiency is almost 100 %. 

  • College of Resources and Environment, Chengdu University of Information Technology, China developed an improved rice straw biochar (RSB) prepared by mixing aluminium chloride to enrich the dewatering mechanism of sludge in the sewage treatment plant. The modified RSB decreases the extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) and enhances sludge dewatering capacity.

  • Recently a highly reversible Co3S4 microsphere cathode material has been developed for Al–ion batteries. Co3S4 represented high electrochemical performance as the battery experiences reversible Al+3 intercalation with Co+2/Co+3 as redox couple in cathode & electrochemical depositions on Al metal anode.
