Global Zirconium Oxychloride Market 2025 by Manufacturers, Regions, Type and Application, Forecast to 2031

According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Zirconium Oxychloride market size was valued at US$ 587 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 1008 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 6.7% during review period.

Zirconium oxychloride is the chloride of zirconium and is a colorless to slightly yellowish crystalline solid. It is highly soluble in water and when heated it dehydrates and eventually transforms into zirconia (ZrO2). Zirconium oxychloride has high resistance to heat, acids and corrosion, which makes it useful in a wide variety of industries. This compound is also an important precursor for zirconium-containing composites and ceramics, and is used in the synthesis of high-purity zirconia. The unique chemical properties of zirconium oxychloride make it valuable in precision chemical synthesis and materials science.

Zirconium oxychloride is an important intermediate product for the production of zirconium compound products and is widely used in many fields. For example, it can be used to manufacture high-purity zirconium oxide, high-purity nano-composite zirconium oxide, etc. These products are widely used in the manufacturing of optical glass, bioceramics (such as teeth, bone joints, etc.), automobile exhaust purification and electronic components due to their unique high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, wear resistance, high strength, non-toxicity and excellent optical properties. In addition, zirconium oxychloride is also suitable for additives in textile, leather, rubber and other industries, and is an important fine chemical raw material.

With the accelerated development of downstream industries, the market size of zirconium oxychloride continues to expand. In the future, with the development of emerging fields such as solid-state batteries, zirconium oxychloride, as the main raw material for zirconium-based oxychloride solid electrolytes, will further increase its market demand. Zirconium oxychloride is widely used in many fields such as refractory materials, wear-resistant materials, synthetic rubber, synthetic fibers, sewage treatment, etc. The steady growth in demand for zirconium oxychloride in these fields provides a solid foundation for its market.

The world's major zirconium oxychloride manufacturers include Guangdong Orient Zirconic Ind Sci & Tech, Shandong Hongyuan New Mstar Technology, Yixing Gaoyang Chemical, Shandong Guangtong New Materials, Zhejiang Zr-Valley Science & Technology, etc. The top five manufacturers in the world account for about 85% of the market share. China produces about 95% of the world's zirconium oxychloride.

Zirconium oxychloride is also used as a precursor for making zirconium-based catalysts, which are essential in various chemical processes, such as petrochemical and polymer production. As industries prioritize efficient and sustainable chemical processes, demand for zirconium-based catalysts has risen, supporting ZOC market growth.

Zirconium compounds are integral to producing ceramic capacitors, semiconductors, and various electronic components. As the electronics industry expands, fueled by the growth of devices, renewable energy technologies, and 5G infrastructure, demand for zirconium oxychloride has grown. Its use in the creation of high-quality, heat-resistant, and durable materials suits the increasingly high-performance needs of the electronics market.
