Global Hydrogen Bromide OR Hydrobromic Acid Market by Application ( Plasma Etching, HBr Flow Battery, PTA Synthesis, Fumigant Synthesis), by Geography - Analysis and Forecast to 2019

Hydrogen bromide is a chemical compound formed by the reaction between hydrogen and bromine. When hydrogen bromide is mixed with water it forms hydrobromic acid. Hydrobromic acid is a strong acid which is mainly used in industrial uses. In chemical labs when any chemical compound is required with desirable properties, hydrobromic acid is used. It is used in production of organobromines, terephthalic acid, inorganic bromides, and especially bromides of calcium, sodium and zinc.

The hydrobromic acid market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 6.4% from 2014 to 2019. The Asia-Pacific region dominates the global market for hydrobromic acid, having accounted for a 50% market share in 2014, followed by North America.

Hydrogen bromide is formed by reaction between hydrogen and bromine. The aqueous solution of hydrogen bromide is known as hydrobromic acid, which is a strong acid. It is used industrially to synthesize many chemical compounds and it is also used in the chemical laboratory to get the compounds of desirable properties.

The use of hydrobromic acid in synthesizing terephthalic acid is a strong driver for the market. Terephthalic acid is used to manufacture various kinds of drugs in the pharmaceutical industries, textile industry, and in adhesive industries. Growing manufacturing industries are the prime movers for terephthalic acid demand, which in turn is increasing the demand of hydrobromic acid as well.

The global hydrobromic acid market was valued at $475.6 million in 2014 and is projected to reach $647.1 million by 2019, at a CAGR of 6.4% from 2014 to 2019. The growing manufacturing industries, high standard for healthcare industries are the prime drivers of this market. On the other hand, environmental norms, replacement of bromine based flame retardants are expected to restrain the market growth in coming years.

Based on applications, the hydrobromic acid market has been segmented into plasma etching, HBR flow battery, PTA synthesis, fumigant synthesis and other applications. PTA synthesis held the largest market share of nearly 60% in 2014. The growing manufacturing industries and use of hydrobromic acid in many drugs production are some of the major reasons for the market growth.

The hydrobromic acid market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and rest of the world. Asia-Pacific held the largest market share among all regions, and continues to dominate the market during the forecast period (2014-2019).

The key players in the global hydrobromic acid market include Tata Chemicals (India), Tosoh Corporation (Japan), Israel Chemicals (Israel), Jordan Bromine Company (Jordan), Tetra technologies (U.S.), Dow Chemical Company (U.S.), Sanofi S.A. (France),  Hindustan Salts limited (India), Albemarle Corporation (U.S.), and Chemtura (U.S.)
