Global metal magnesium market was valued at USD 3,5 billion in 2019. It is projected to grow at an 8.8% compound annual growth rate (CAGR), between 2020 and 2027. The market for metal magnesium is expected to grow due to the increasing die casting requirements for automotive and other structural applications. Magnesium, which is the lightest material, has a high strength-to-weight ratio. Magnesium is highly thermal and electrically conductive and can withstand extreme operating temperatures. Magnesium alloyed to aluminum is used for a variety of purposes, including vehicle parts, RFI shielding, EMI shielding and electrical connectors.
In 2019, the U.S. made up 82.5% revenue share in the metal magnesium market. The country's market is driven primarily by magnesium used in casting applications within the automotive industry. According to the International Trade Administration (ITA), the country's sales of lightweight vehicles reached 17.0 million units in 2019, for the fourth consecutive year. In 2018, the total amount of foreign direct investment in the automotive sector was more than USD 110.0 billion.
Research and development in automobiles is one of the key factors that will help to increase the demand for magnesium-related products. According to the ITA, nearly one-fifth global spending was spent on automotive R&D. The country also exported 1.8million light vehicles to other countries around the globe.
Market vendors will be able to reap lucrative opportunities in the future with other applications, such as aerospace and defense components, wind turbines, compressed gas storage, and aero- and defense components. The United States added almost 9,132 MW to its wind capacity in 2019, and had a cumulative wind capacity total of 105.591 MW by 2019.
The aluminum alloys segment was the biggest application in terms of volume in 2019, and held a market share exceeding 36.0%. Addition of magnesium metal to alloys can increase strength and strain-hardening capability. These alloys can be used for structural purposes and are not heat-treatable. These alloys are used in buildings, pressure vessels and train and truck bodies as well as chemical tanks and armored cars.
From 2020 to 2027, the market for metal magnesium is expected to see a 9.0% CAGR in die casting applications revenue. Market vendors will be able to reap the benefits of growing demand from aerospace and defense applications. Cast gearboxes are used in helicopters as well as auxiliary casing and transmission components.
The automotive uses magnesium metal include the instrument panel, seat panel, steering column parts and door inner panels, as well as chassis parts and engine block. Other important applications include titanium reduction and iron and steel manufacturing, as well as tools.
In 2019, 51.0% of the market for magnesium was dominated by Asia Pacific. The long-term drivers of metal magnesium market growth are China's growing automotive production and India's increasing automobile production. China is the biggest producer of magnesium metal, producing nearly 900 kilotons in 2019. Due to rising demand for lighter-weight vehicles that reduce harmful emissions, the demand for magnesium metal will mainly increase.
North America's market for metal magnesium is expected to grow at 7.6% volume over the forecast period. In the next few years, there will be an increase in aluminum substituting Steel. This will likely increase the use of magnesium metal in aluminum alloys. Magnesium casting can also be used in automobile manufacturing instead of iron, steel, or aluminum.
The rising demand for magnesium-based products will be aided by strict regulations on carbon dioxide emissions. Automakers across North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Europe are expected to concentrate on lighter vehicles in order to increase fuel efficiency. This will increase demand for aluminum alloys and magnesium metal die-cast pieces.
The market dynamics are expected to be positively influenced by research and development activities in aluminum alloys and magnesium alloys . Research organizations and institutes are expected to concentrate on new magnesium alloys. The University of North Texas and Indian Institute of Technology collaborated in the development of a new magnesium alloy that can replace aluminum or steel. This alloy will likely be used in automobile manufacturing. The market for metal magnesium is dominated by the following:
