Atomized iron powder is molten iron or iron alloy treatment by high-pressure water mist, is a new variety of iron powder, with no impurities in the production process, relatively pure, spherical particles made by the atomizing method, it is the best raw materials of mechanical parts.
Atomizing iron powder industry is concentrated relatively. Currently, there are many producing companies in the world atomizing iron powder industry. The main market players are Hoganas, GKN (Hoeganaes), Rio Tinto Metal Powders, Pometon and Kobelco. The poduction of atomizing iron powder will increase to 847.69 K MT in 2017 from 698.77 K MT in 2012 with average growth rate of 3.94%. Global atomizing iron powder capacity utilization rate remained at around 50% in 2016.
n consumption market, the global consumption value of atomizing iron powder increases with the 2.64% average growth rate. North America and China are the mainly consumption regions due to the bigger demand of downstream applications. In 2016, these two regions occupied 51.70% of the global consumption volume in total.
Atomizing iron powder include different particle size, which include <200 Mesh, 200-300 Mesh, 300-400 Mesh and >400 Mesh. And each type has application industries relatively. With good properties in application process of atomizing iron powder, the downstream application industries will need more atomizing iron powder products. So, atomizing iron powder has a huge market potential in the future. Manufacturers engaged in the industry are trying to produce high purity and good performance atomizing iron powder through improving technology.
Over the next five years, LPI(LP Information) projects that Atomizing Iron Powder will register a 1.0% CAGR in terms of revenue, reach US$ 1050 million by 2023, from US$ 990 million in 2017.
