According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Argon Gas Market is accounted for $401.20 million in 2023 and is expected to reach $599.29 million by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 5.9% during the forecast period. The chemical element argon has an atomic number of 18 and is an inert, colourless, and odourless substance. Since it is a noble gas and exists in its natural state at room temperature, it is primarily inert to other chemicals. In the atmosphere of the Earth, argon ranks third in terms of abundance. Fractional distillation of liquid air is a method used in industry to extract this gas. High-purity argon is a gas that comes in liquid and gaseous forms. It primarily serves as a cooling, illumination, and deception tool in a variety of industries, particularly welding where it serves as an inert shielding agent. The gas has a few essential qualities that make it useful in a variety of industrial applications, including non-toxicity, non-reactivity at normal temperatures, non-flammability, inert nature, cost-effectiveness, and colourlessness.
According to the Indian Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF), the Indian automotive industry, including component manufacturing is projected to reach USD 251.4-282.8 billion by 2026, while the pharmaceutical industry is expected to grow to USD 100 billion by 2025, along with the medical devices market to reach to USD 25 billion.
The global Argon Gas market expected to drive growth during the forecast period. Argon gas, a major contributor to the narcotic effect, has a few advantages over helium and nitrogen at high pressure. Argon gas is widely used as a raw material in a variety of medical applications as a defensive and neuroprotective agent. Argon is primarily used for analysis and quality control because it functions as a plasma gas, particularly in the fields of emission spectrometry, inductively coupled plasma (ICP), graphite furnace spectrometry, and gas chromatography. Therefore, as argon gas usage increases in the healthcare industry, argon gas sales also rise, creating a significant growth opportunity for the market.
The global Argon Gas market expected to hinder growth during the forecast period. The expansion of the market was negatively impacted by rising argon gas production costs. Major market restraints include the high cost of extraction operations for commercial and industrial use as well as the decreasing funding for new product development and research. Additionally, the lack of global gas commercialization and the high cost of transportation due to rising fuel prices restrict the market's overall growth.
The global Argon Gas market expected to drive growth during the forecast period. The IoT technologies that link smart devices and other cutting-edge equipment are being increasingly incorporated by argon gas companies in order to gain real-time insights and close manufacturing process gaps. These devices' data can be used to alert plant managers and operators to potential machine failures and provide information on working conditions that can improve chemical reactor performance. IoT technology is used by two significant industrial gas companies, Air Products and Praxair-Linde, for industrial processes. Due to rising argon gas sales, it is anticipated that the quick adoption of this innovative technology will open up lucrative growth opportunities.
The global Argon Gas market expected to hamper growth during the forecast period. Certain health risks are connected to argon gas. Due to the fact that this gas is an anesthetic, it could have negative side effects. Long-term exposure to the gas can result in an oxygen-deficient environment, which raises the risk of suffocation significantly and causes symptoms like rapid breathing, headaches, loss of judgment, and coordination. Through inhalation, argon gas can enter the body. Additional side effects of excessive inhalation include nausea, vomiting, lightheadedness, loss of consciousness, and even death. The eyes and skin can become burned and irritated when exposed to argon gas. Moreover, the negative risk associated with argon gas presents a significant obstacle to the expansion of the argon gas market globally.
COVID-19 pandemic was spread across the globe in 2020. The market for argon gas has been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The demand for argon gas has decreased in sectors like welding, electronics, and healthcare as a result of the downturn in the economy. Global supply chain disruptions have made it challenging for businesses to acquire the raw materials and machinery required to produce and distribute argon gas, which has resulted in shortages and raised prices. Additionally, the demand for argon gas has shifted from sectors like electronics to the healthcare industry as a result of manufacturing shifting from high-value goods to necessities. Moreover, the pandemic has had a negative effect on the argon gas market, despite the fact that the market will probably recover over time.
The argon-carbon dioxide segment is expected to have a largest share during the forecast period, due to the rising demand for mixtures in a variety of industrial applications. It is a gas mixture that has no smell, no color, and no flame, making it perfect for stainless steel and low-treated steel welding. Blends of argon and carbon dioxide can be used to incorporate a wide range of material thicknesses with a variety of metal transition modes. Due to its distinctive properties, the argon-carbon dioxide mixture is increasingly being used across industries, which is anticipated to spur segment growth during the anticipated period.
The metal manufacturing and fabrication segment is anticipated to witness the fastest CAGR growth during the forecast period. In order to shield the metal from contamination during welding, argon gas is frequently used in these processes. The automotive industry's heavy reliance on and demand for gas serves to support the metal fabrication and manufacturing industries. The demand for steel is also increasing as a result of rapid urbanization, which also results in an increase in infrastructure development projects. In the upcoming years, this aspect is anticipated to increase market share and fuel segment growth.
With more than 40% of the global market share, the Asia-Pacific region holds the largest share of the argon gas market. The expansion in this area can be attributed to the rise in argon gas demand from sectors like steel, electronics, and healthcare in nations like China and India. The market in Asia Pacific has expanded as a result of the presence of significant players in the area and the development of new argon gas-related technologies. Moreover, the market for argon gas is dominated by the Asia-Pacific region, with significant shares held by other regions like North America and Europe.
Due to the rising demand from the electronics, healthcare, and metal fabrication industries in nations like China, India, and Japan, the Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to have the highest CAGR in the argon gas market. Demand for argon gas is anticipated to increase as a result of the significant growth being experienced by the region's electronics industry, particularly in China. The demand for argon gas is being further increased by the region's rapidly growing healthcare sector. Moreover, new applications and significant argon gas producers are anticipated to support market expansion.
