The global ammonium nitrate explosive market size was USD 11560 million in 2022 and market is projected to touch USD 14185.4 million by 2031, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 2.3% during the forecast period.

Chemically, ammonium nitrate has the formula NH4NO3. Nitric acid and ammonium chloride make up its ingredients. Ammonium nitrate is colorless and has a white crystalline appearance at room temperature. When exposed to temperatures exceeding 32 degrees Celsius, these rhombohedral crystals transform into monoclinic crystals.

The market is projected to progress owing to the increasing demand for the product as a basis of nitrogen in fertilizers. Moreover, the ingredient is in high demand as an oxidizing agent in the fabrication of explosives, which is projected to fuel industrial development.

COVID-19 Impact: Lockdown Restrictions Hampering Market Progression

The market has been negatively impacted by the coronavirus pandemic. Demand from many end-use sectors had reduced, which therefore destroyed transactions. Reduced travel because of pandemic-related restrictions led to fewer maintenance needs, which also resulted in decreased demand in spare parts. This indirectly has an impact on many shape memory combinations, particularly in the flying area.

Latest Trends

"Increasing Demand from Mining Applications to Foster Market Development"

The market for ammonium nitrate is expected to rise at an exponential rate because of the rising production and demand for base metals, diamonds, manganese, and bauxite. Another factor that is anticipated to drive the market expansion for mining applications is the substantial investments made by mining corporations to search out new exploration areas for precious metals and minerals. Rising mining activity is anticipated to fuel market expansion over the coming years in countries around the world, including the U.S., Argentina, and India.

Driving Factors

"Rising Interest in Explosives to Drive Market Development "

A major factor driving the market is the growth in demand for explosives and manures. Since ammonium nitrate is more stable than urea, it is widely used as manure everywhere in the world. The expanding demand for explosives and black powder is another important factor driving the ammonium nitrate explosive industry. In any case, strict standards regarding the treatment of ammonium nitrate provided jointly by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) are anticipated to pose a threat to the market in the years to come.

"Increasing Demand from Electronic Industry to Fuel Market Expansion "

The electronics sector makes use of ammonium nitrate (grade for electronics). To create high-quality nitrous oxide (N2O) for usage in the electronics sector, pure forms of ammonium nitrate are employed. Thus, there will be a greater demand for ammonium nitrate. VLSI (very large-scale integration) or ULSI requires nitrous oxide (ultra-large-scale integration). Thin-film oxides, LCD displays, and semiconductors are all made using it during the gas-phase chemical deposition process for items like computers, smart phones, robotics, cars, medical equipment, and space rockets.

Restraining Factors

"Ban on Chemicals to Impede Market Growth"

Since ammonium nitrate has a reputation for being moderately harmful, this is expected to significantly constrain the ammonium nitrate market during the anticipated time range. Over the course of the projection period, it is anticipated that the restriction on CAN fertilizers due to their illegal use as homemade bombs will further restrain ammonium nitrate explosive market growth.
