Sodium Bromide Market Drivers
Increasing usage of Sodium Bromide across various industry verticals
Sodium bromide is a single salt clear brine fluid or is used in the combination with other brines that offers various benefits such as a non-damaging to the formation, non-flammable, thermally and chemically stable, can be blended with other solutions of bromides and chlorides, and useful when used in formations that are known to have calcium sensitivity. Additionally, sodium bromide also used in situations where formation waters contain high levels of sulfate or carbonate that may precipitate with the calcium ion. Thus, owing to these benefits the demand for sodium bromide is growing across various industries. Sodium bromide can be used as raw material in the preparation of liquid photographic film, in medicines used for the production of diuretics and sedatives, as the brominating agent in printing and dyeing, and it can also be used in synthetic fragrances and other chemicals. In addition, it is also used for the preparation of drilling fluids, completion fluids and drilling muds formulations. Thus, the growth of industries like water treatment, healthcare, oil and gas, and photography are further driving the growth of this market.
Sodium Bromide Market Challenges
Presence of other alternatives to Sodium Bromide and the Emergence of COVID-19
The presence of alternatives such as sodium bisulphite ammonium thiosulphate, sodium chloride, and bisulfate which has better efficiency than sodium bromide, restraints the market growth of Sodium Bromide. Whereas, the outbreak of COVID-19 globally further acts as a challenging factor to the market growth. The corona pandemic has disrupted the global supply chain, shutdown of various end-use industry production, lack of manpower, the global lockdown, and declined demand from consumers further restraining the market growth. In addition, decrease in purchasing capital impacted the growth of food, agriculture, and oil & gas industries further affecting the growth of the Sodium Bromide market. For instance, the decline in activity in the oil and gas exploration and production further resulted in a decline in the demand for sodium bromide products.
