Flotation Reagents Market

BASF SE (Germany) and Clariant AG (Switzerland) are leading players in Flotation Reagents Market

Flotation is the process used to separate and concentrate ores by altering their surfaces to a hydrophilic or hydrophobic condition. Flotation reagents are the chemicals used for the froth flotation process. They include pH regulators, slime dispersants, conditioning agents, collectors, resurfacing agents, wetting agents, and frothers. These reagents help in aeration of minerals in water which facilitates the attachment of air bubbles to selected minerals and drifts them. Once at the surface, the selected minerals are supported by a froth layer until they are removed. The materials which are unattached to air bubbles remain submerged in the pulp. The mining industry utilizes these chemicals in all stages of production to increase the efficiency and productivity of the mining processes such as the extraction and recovery of minerals from ores. The flotation reagents market is projected to reach USD 5.55 billion by 2023, at a CAGR of 6.0% between 2018 and 2023. However, the slow growth of the mining industry in developed countries is expected to restrain the growth of the flotation reagents market globally.

The key companies operating in the flotation reagents market are BASF SE (Germany), Cytec Solvay Group (Belgium), Clariant AG (Switzerland), Kemira OYJ (Finland), Huntsman (US), Dow Chemical (US), AkzoNobel (Netherland), SNF FLOERGER SAS (France), Evonik (Switzerland), and Orica (Australia). These companies have adopted several business strategies such as agreements, acquisition, and new product launches between January 2015 and August 2018 to stay competitive in the flotation reagents market.
