Global Hafnium Market Growth 2025-2031

The global Hafnium market size is predicted to grow from US$ 142 million in 2025 to US$ 202 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.0% from 2025 to 2031.

Hafnium is a chemical element, chemical symbol is Hf, and its atomic number is 72, atomic weight of 178.49. It is a shiny silver-grey transition metal with a melting point of 2233°C, boiling point of 4602°C, and density of 13.31 g/cm3. The nature of dense hafnium metal is not active, the surface of the formation of oxide coating, at room temperature is very stable, powder hafnium easy to spontaneous combustion in air. Hafnium has a strong ability to absorb hydrogen and can form up to HfH2.1. Hafnium reacts with nitrogen at high temperatures. Due to the contraction of the lanthanide series, the atomic radius of the hafnium is almost the same as that of the zirconium, so the hafnium is very similar to the zirconium in nature and is difficult to separate, it mainly because the density of the hafnium is twice that of the zirconium. Hafnium does not act with dilute hydrochloric acid, dilute sulfuric acid and strong alkali solution, but soluble in hydrofluoric acid. Hafnium has an oxidation state of +2, +3, +4, among which the +4 valence compound is the most stable. Hafnium is used in filaments and electrodes. Some semiconductor fabrication processes use its oxide for integrated circuits at 45 nm and smaller feature lengths. Some super alloys used for special applications contain hafnium in combination with niobium, titanium, or tungsten.

The global key hafnium producers are Framatome, Australian Strategic , Materials (ASM), ATI, Chepetsky Mechanical Plant, Nanjing Youtian , Metal Technology, CNNC Jinghuan and others. The top two manufacturers jointly occupy 75% of the market share, with the largest manufacturer being Framatome, which has a 40% share. Global origins are mainly located in North America, Europe, China, Korea, etc., with Europe being the largest production region with a share of 55%. In terms of categories, hafnium crystal bars hold the largest market share with 60%, followed by hafnium sponge with 35%. As far as its applications are concerned, super alloy is its top application area with a 70% market share; followed by nuclear and plasma cutting.
