The report provides analysis of global Nitric Acid market for the period 2016-2027, wherein 2020 to 2027 is the forecast period and 2019 is considered as the base year.

Market Insights

The growing demand from the agricultural and chemical industries is a major factor driving the global market. Another big factor that will drive growth in the global demand in the coming years is the increasing use of nitric acid in the automobile and explosive industries. Moreover, increased competition from the electronics industry is projected to stimulate global business growth. However, strict policy regulations are essential factors that inhibit target market growth. Increased footwear and car industry demand are a move towards the target market. 

Regional Stance

The North American industry is expected to experience considerable growth over the projected period owing to the presence of several global chemical producers in the US. The demand for nitric acid is expected to continue to show strong growth as sectors such as homes, automobiles, agricultural and furniture evolve rapidly. For the formulation of fertilizers and nylon, these factories need high quality nitrogen acid. In addition, the demand for explosive ammonium nitrate from the mining industry has grown, increasing overall market development as a result.

Germany is home to some of the world's biggest manufacturers. Key firms include BMW, Volkswagen, Daimler AG, Adam Opel Ford etc. As a result, nylon products for the interior and construction of vehicles in the country are widely sought after. However, by 2020, production of nearly 5.5 Mn vehicles in 2019 represented an all-time low. The primary explanation for this was the growing trade tension between China and the U.S., which impacted the international markets and resulted in weak demand.
