Global
Ammonium Hydroxide Market: Overview
Ammonia
is one of the most widespread used industrial chemical compound.
Ammonia is used in combination of various other chemicals resulting
into explorative compounds. Ammonium hydroxide is one such compound
which is formed by the reaction between ammonia and water molecule.
Ammonium hydroxide is also known as aqua ammonia, ammonia water,
aqueous ammonia, ammoniacal liquor. Ammonium hydroxide is colourless
solution and is characterised by a peculiar odour. Ammonium hydroxide
is alkaline in nature and thereby, can be used as acid neutraliser.
Ammonium hydroxide is naturally found in form of air, soil and water.
It plays a significant role in protein synthesis process in the body.
Ammonium hydroxide finds application across different industries such
as chemical, food & beverage, personal care, pharmaceutical among
others.

Global
Ammonium Hydroxide Market: Drivers and Restraints
Widespread
application base and easy availability is driving the growth of
ammonium hydroxide market. Being alkaline in nature, ammonium
hydroxide is used as acid neutraliser, which finds extensive use in
pharmaceutical industries. Ammonium hydroxide is widely used for the
sanitation purpose as it is effective in masking microbial agents.
Its alkaline property makes it corrosive to certain metals such as
aluminium, copper and galvanised surfaces which further is used in
the manufacturing process of circuit boards. Thus promoting the
growth of ammonium hydroxide across different industries. In food &
beverage industry ammonium hydroxide is used as leavening agent
whereas in tobacco industry it is used as flavour enhancer. Moreover,
ammonium hydroxide is also used in the manufacturing of fertilizer,
rubber and plastics. Ammonium hydroxide forms an important
constituent in manufacturing of fertilizers, as nitrogen used in
fertiliser is derived from ammonium hydroxide. Furthermore, ammonium
hydroxide is also used in other industrial applications such as it is
used in synthesis of certain chemicals, helps to stain wood
containing tannic acid among others. Therefore, versatile nature of
ammonium hydroxide is significantly contributing to the growth of
ammonium hydroxide market.
Apart
from extensive industrial application, ammonium hydroxide is also
associated with certain health. Ammonium hydroxide has high pH level,
hence, if its direct contact may cause severe skin, eye and
respiratory tract irritation which can also tissue burns. Inhalation
of ammonium hydroxide mists may result in burning sensation in nose
and can also lead to pulmonary edema. Hence, precautions must be
taken when handling ammonium hydroxide. Therefore, severe
attributable side effects may restrain the ammonium hydroxide market.
Moreover, according to Federal Water Pollution Control Act and the
Clean Water Act Amendments of 1977 and 1978, ammonium hydroxide is
considered to be hazardous substance for environmental sustainability
with grave effect on aquatic life. Thereby, affecting the growth
prospects of ammonium hydroxide market due to increase focus upon
environmental sustainability.

Global
Ammonium Hydroxide Market: Region wise Outlook
The
global ammonium hydroxide is categorised into seven regions, namely,
Western Europe, Eastern Europe Middle East and Africa (MEA), Asia
Pacific excluding Japan (APEJ), Japan Latin America and, North
America. North America accounts for significant share of ammonium
hydroxide market. Widespread industrial applications along with major
key component in the manufacturer of nitrogen which further is used
across different industries attributes to accelerating growth in
North America. The market for ammonium hydroxide is uncertain in
Europe despite of its extensive applicability. As ammonium hydroxide
is responsible for hazardous effects on human health and aquatic
life, growth of ammonium hydroxide may get restrained due to
stringent regulatory norms in Europe. Asia Pacific region represents
opportunistic market for the growth of ammonium hydroxide. Extensive
use of ammonium hydroxide in fertiliser manufacturing along with acid
neutraliser property provides an explorative platform for various
industrial manufacturers to capitalise upon their product offerings
involving ammonium hydroxide.
