Derivatives (Sodium Bromide, Calcium Bromide, Zinc Bromide, Hydrogen Bromide)
The sodium bromide segment is estimated to gain the largest market demand of about 41% in 2037. The reason behind this growth is its application in the oil & gas industry, as sodium bromide is a major key component in the formulation of drilling fluids, where it enhances the performance of drilling operations by stabilizing wellbores while controlling pressure.
According to a report, there would be a rise of about 6% in global oil demand between 2022 and 2028, and this would cross about 105.7 million barrels per day, such expansion of oil & gas drilling activities acts as a major growth driver for sodium bromide.
Additionally, sodium bromide finds application in the pharmaceutical industry, particularly in the production of sedatives and anticonvulsant medications. The pharmaceutical sector's continuous growth, driven by an aging global population and increased healthcare needs, contributes to the rising demand for sodium bromide. Its role as an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in certain medications positions it as a growth driver in this segment.
