The "Potassium Iodide Market by Product Type and Application: Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2021-2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global potassium iodide market was valued at $0.8 billion in 2020, and is projected to reach $1.5 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 6.1% from 2021 to 2030.
Potassium iodide is a stable salt containing iodine and potassium that is used in applications such as food & feed, life science, polymer additives, and chemical processing.
The growth of the global potassium iodide market is due to rise in demand for pharmaceutical and polymer end-use industries. Iodine is important as it helps to function thyroid properly, other body parts, and metabolic mechanism. In addition, goiter problem occurs due to deficiency of iodine. Hence use of potassium iodide to prevent goiter is a considerable growth factor in the global market. Potassium iodide can be used as a thyroid blocker that helps prohibit secretion of radioactive iodine during nuclear radiation emergency. The use of potassium iodide as thyroid blocking agent is recommended by public officials. This is the key factor escalating the growth of the global market. On the other hand, potassium iodide is used to treat sporotrichosis and other skin inflammation diseases such as erythema nodosum, subacute nodular migratory panniculitis, and nodular vasculitis. This is another growth factor in the global market.
However, prolonged use of potassium iodide leads to allergic reactions such as skin rashes, swollen body parts, and vomiting. This is expected to hamper the market growth. In addition, other side effects such as chest pain, irregular heartbeats, tarry stool, and stomach pain is another considerable factor anticipated to hamper the market growth.
On the contrary, potassium iodide can be used effectively as a micro-biocide and it can be employed for emergency purification of drinking water. It can also be employed during sanitization of food contact surfaces, disinfecting agent in hospitals, and industrial cooling water systems. Potassium iodide can also be used as a key component during in situ production of potassium tri-iodide complexes that is used in antiseptic creams. Moreover, it can be employed in complex inorganic oxide pigments such as bismuth vanadate pigments and inducing polarizing functionality of polymer films that are used in touch screens. All these factors collectively drive the growth of the global market and thereby predicted to offer new opportunities during the forecast period.
The potassium iodide market analysis is done on the basis of product type, application, and region. Depending on product type, the market is divided into solid and liquid. On the basis of application, it is fragmented into pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, polymer, food & feed additives, and others. Region-wise, the market is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.
