DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Global Barium Carbonate Market 2017-2021" report has been added to Research and Markets' offering.
The global barium carbonate market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.91% during the period 2017-2021.
The report, Global Barium Carbonate Market 2017-2021, has been prepared based on an in-depth market analysis with inputs from industry experts. The report covers the market landscape and its growth prospects over the coming years. The report also includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market.
One trend in the market is increasing use of barium carbonate in radiation shielding. Earlier, lead glass was the ideal choice for radiation shielding because of its high refractive index. However, the toxic content in this glass caused health hazards and environmental pollution and was thus replaced by barium carbonate. Barium compounds were found to be suitable replacements for lead in lead-free glass production.
According to the report, one driver in the market is rising demand for barium carbonate from glass industry. The glass industry exhibits the highest demand for barium carbonate. A key advantage of using barium carbonate is that it imparts luster and increases the refractive index of the glass. It is used in the preparation of capillary glass columns. Barium carbonate exhibits certain physical and oxide sourcing characteristics in ceramic glazes. It supplies barium oxide (BaO) to glazes that may be soluble in acid that meets the glaze surface. The chemical balance glaze is a factor on which its solvency is dependent upon and the extent to which it bonds barium oxide molecules into the glass structure.
