Nepheline Syenite Market Driver

Multiple Uses in Plastics, Paints, and other Products to Augment Growth

• Potassium and sodium oxide are more abundant in nepheline syenite. While reacting with quartz in the glass furnace, it lowers the melting temperature. It contains a lot of alumina. This mineral's commercial products contain no crystalline silica. As a result, it is consumed in smaller quantities than feldspar. It also aids in lowering energy consumption and improving end-product quality. It is also used as a transparent filler in coatings, plastics, rubber, paints, adhesives, and sealants due to its low refractive index. It provides improved flatting efficiency, improved pellet flow, optimum particle shape, and ease of mixing in coatings. So, this can drive the market growth.

Nepheline Syenite Market Restraint

Recycling of Used Glass Products May Hamper Growth

Most glass products are recycled in order to achieve sustainable goals and reduce energy consumption costs. Glass packaging can be recycled indefinitely without affecting the quality. According to The European Container Glass Federation, the European Union's glass packaging recycling rate is around 74%. The glass industry is the world's largest consumer. As a result, the recycling of used glass products is expected to create challenges for this market during the forecast period.
