Sodium Sulfide Market Size worth over $665 million by 2024

According to a new research report by Global Market Insights Inc., the Sodium Sulfide Market size is set to surpass $665 million by 2024. Increasing disposable income in India, China, Mexico, UAE and South Korea has led to a rise in preference for designer leather goods drive the growth of the global market.
 

Sodium sulfide is vital for dehairing process in tanneries where an alkaline mixture ensures the chemical dissolution of hair. Several European countries such as Italy, Spain, France and Germany account for about 25% of global leather production pertaining to the predominance of small-sized tanneries with high adaptability, access to premium raw materials and technological leadership which may further stimulate sodium sulfide market growth.
 

Global crystal segment may exhibit growth of about 6.5% through 2024. The product finds extensive use as an assistant in sulfide dyeing, chemical fiber devulcanization, and as an ingredient for manufacturing organic chemicals. The product is also used in rubber, engineering plastics, pharmaceuticals, chemical cleansers, and food additive manufacturing which may accelerate sodium sulfide (Na2S) market growth.
 

In 2017, U.S. sodium sulfide market from water treatment applications surpassed USD 3.5 million. Enhanced wastewater treatment technologies along with rising population have influenced the country to significantly increase its water reuse targets. The product is moderately soluble in water compared to other insoluble compounds such as oxides or fluorides and precipitates out heavy metal contaminants, which increases the product’s suitability as a reagent in wastewater treatment.
