Drivers of Boric Acid Market

• Increase in demand for boric acid in ceramics and fiberglass, wood preservatives, nutritional supplements, and pest control applications is driving the global boric acid market. Boric acid is employed as an insecticide and fungicide to treat boron deficiencies in rice and wheat plants. It is predominantly used as preserving agent for timber goods against fungal and insect attack. Boric acid is also used as nutritional supplement and fortifying agent in processed food.
• Rise in demand for boric acid in glass formulations to reduce melting temperatures, increase thermal resistance and mechanical strength, and enhance aqueous and chemical durability is estimated to boost the global boric acid market during the forecast period
• Boric acid is necessary in the manufacture of optical lenses, electronic glass, and glass-ceramic composites. It is employed in the production of ceramics, as it enhances yield strength and improves scratch and chemical resistance of ceramic ware such as wall and floor tiles, tableware, porcelain, and enameled appliances. Boric acid is employed as a binder in steel-smelting furnaces for manufacturing magnesia-based refractory bricks and as stabilizer for dolomite refractory bricks.

Restraints of Boric Acid Market

• Usage of boric acid is restricted in personal care applications. It is classified as a carcinogen under European regulations. This is anticipated to hamper the market during the forecast period.
• Dearth of universal directives pertaining to applications of boric acid is expected to restrain the market during forecast period. Every country has different directives pertaining to applications of boric acid. Companies find it difficult to deal with these country-wise regulations. This discourages investments in the boric acid market, thereby restraining the market.

COVID-19 Impact on Boric Acid Market

• The COVID-19 outbreak is hampering the demand for boric acid in many applications. Governments of various countries across the globe have enforced lockdown measures to curb the spread of the disease. This has resulted in the slowdown and halt in manufacturing operations, restrictions on supply and transport, and infrastructure slowdown. In turn, this has led to a decline in in demand for boric acid across the globe.
• Key players operating in the boric acid market are primarily tier I and tier II manufacturers and suppliers. Manufacture and supply chain facilities of these players are spread across various countries in Asia Pacific, Europe, North America, Latin America, and Middle East Africa. Many of these players have halted their production output over the last few months due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic has negatively impacted the demand and supply chain of boric acid.
