DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Research and Markets has announced the addition of the “India Synthetic Magnetite Market – Forecast to 2021” report to their offering.
Synthetic magnetite is also known as black iron oxide. Magnetite is a mineral with the highest iron content of 72.4%, and is also the most mined iron ore globally. Synthetic magnetite is produced through different chemical methods, such as the Laux, precipitation, and Penniman processes. It is chemically modified by altering the product characteristics. These modified magnetite products offer better characteristics than naturally occurring magnetite products, and hence are widely preferred in different end-use industries.
Some of the major end users of synthetic magnetite are construction, paints & coatings, printing, automotive, and water treatment. Apart from these industries, synthetic magnetite is also used for aluminothermic welding and fertilizers, and as pigments in cosmetics, pet foods, and medical applications.
One of the significant characteristics of synthetic magnetite is its resistance to higher temperature. This magnetite powder is therefore preferably used as abrasives in friction materials, such as brake pads. Synthetic magnetite is also used as a raw material for toners in the printing industry, and as a reagent for water treatment plants. In India, the grades of black iron oxide used in different industries are mostly imported due to domestic supply constraints and absence of quality products.
