Overview:

Iodine is a mineral with atomic number 53 and symbol I. It is a heaviest sable halogen and found in solid form with lustrous purple-black color. Iodine is essential mineral for humans, which is present in high amounts especially in seaweed, cod, dairy products, shrimp, iodized salt, eggs, tuna, etc. it is also added to food products as a dietary supplement. It is an essential component of the thyroid hormones triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4). Iodine protects cells from toxic and chemical harmful effects. It also helps to control metabolism and other functions of the body.

Dynamics:

Growing use of iodine in optical polarizing films in liquid crystal displays (LCD) applications is a major factor driving growth of the global iodine market. LCD display is activated by electrical current and depends upon the state it passes or blocks polarized light. Polarized film containing iodine made by absorbing iodine onto the stretched surface of polyvinyl alcohol. Increasing number of individuals with iodine deficiency especially developing counties such as India is another factor expected to increase demand for iodine as a dietary supplement ingredient. Furthermore, growing use of iodine for various industrial applications such as fluorochemicals, animal feed is another factor expected to boost growth of the global iodine market in the near future.

However, long-term consumption of high amounts of iodine can cause toxicity and is expected to hamper growth of the global iodine market.

Segment Analysis:

On the basis of form, the organic compounds segment is expected to dominates the global market in terms of revenue and maintain its strong position in the near future. This is primarily attributed to rising use of iodine in pet food and cattle feed and in turn is expected to supporting growth of this segment in the target market.

Regional Analysis:

Currently, market in Europe accounts for major share in terms of revenue and is anticipated to maintain its position over the forecast period. Regulations regarding consumption of iodized salt by UNICEF and World health organization is a key factor propelling growth of the target market in this region. Asia Pacific market in anticipated to witness high growth in terms of revenue in the near future, followed by North America, Middle East and Africa, and Latin America. Growing awareness regarding iodine deficiency among individuals is a factor fueling growth of the target market in Asia Pacific region.
