The global metallic stearates market size is expected to reach USD 5,849.67 million by 2032, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report "Metallic Stearates Market Share, Size, Trends, Industry Analysis Report, By Type (Magnesium Stearates, Zinc Stearates, Calcium Stearates, Aluminium Stearates); By End Use Industry; By Region; Segment Forecast, 2023 - 2032" gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.
The automotive sector is experiencing a surge in demand for metallic stearates, primarily due to the increasing popularity of electric vehicles (EVs). As the global automotive industry transitions towards more sustainable and eco-friendly mobility solutions, the production of EVs has gained significant momentum. Metallic stearates, such as zinc stearate and calcium stearate, play a vital role in manufacturing EV components. These additives are utilized in various applications within the EV production process. They are commonly used as lubricants, mold release agents, and heat stabilizers in producing battery components, electrical connectors, wiring harnesses, and other critical parts.
Based in South Korea, Hyundai Motor has recently reported better-than-expected results, with its EV sales surpassing projections. Hyundai Motor forecasts a significant 54 percent growth in EV sales for the current year, outpacing the growth projections of even Tesla. As the demand for EVs continues to grow, the automotive industry increasingly relies on metallic stearates to ensure EV components' efficient production and high-performance characteristics.
The demand for natural rubber remains substantial, as it serves as a critical material in manufacturing various products such as catheters, medical gloves, tires, and an extensive array of other projects.
