[170+ Pages Research Report] Copper Cathode Market to surpass USD 44.5 billion by 2032 from USD 22.95 billion in 2022 at a CAGR of 6.20% throughout the forecast period 2022-32.

Product Overview

Copper Cathode is the main raw material used in the making of copper rod for wire and cable sector. The production of copper rods for the wire and cable sector and copper tubes for consumer durable goods are the two major application segments of copper cathodes. Brass, alloy steel, and bronze are among the alloys that are created using copper cathodes and are utilized in building, electrical machinery, defence, and appliance manufacturing. A type of copper that holds a purity of 99.95% is known as ‘copper cathode’. Copper ore passes through two processes, electro-refining and smelting, to remove impurities. Since it is a nearly pure metal, the resulting copper makes for a great conductor and is frequently used in wiring.

Market Highlights

The Copper Cathode Market is expected to project a notable CAGR in 2032.

Copper Cathode Market to surpass USD 44.5 billion by 2032 from USD 22.95 billion in 2022 at a CAGR of 6.20% in the coming years, i.e., 2022-32. Stringent criteria for cast rods, the availability of high-grade cathode standards, and advancements in refining technology are majorly driving the global Copper Cathode Market. The use of copper cathodes as a feedstock for the production of high-purity copper and copper alloys is expected to significantly contribute to the growth of the global Copper Cathode Market.

Copper Cathode: Segments

The High Quality Level segment is expected to grow with a higher CAGR during 2022-32

Copper Cathode Market is categorized on the basis of Type into Standard Quality Level and High Quality Level. In the coming years, it is projected that the high-quality level segment would dominate since high-grade copper is very simple to work with both cold and hot. It comes in multiple manufactured shapes and has exceptional ductility, making it much easier to pull to thin wire diameters. Oxygen is the principal secondary element in ETP copper, which has a minimum copper content of 99.90 percent.

The Electronic Products segment is expected to grow with a higher CAGR during 2022-32

Copper Cathode Market is categorized on the basis of Application into Conductor, Electronic Products, and Others. In the following years, it is projected that the Electronic Products will gain a significant share of the market. The wires in the electrical products, or nearly every part of them, are made of copper. Also, copper cathodes are used by numerous companies that produce electrical goods. Therefore, based on application, the electrical devices segment is expected to lead.

Market Dynamics

Growth Drivers

Number of Ongoing Advancements and Innovations

The availability of high-grade cathode standards coupled with strict criteria for cast rods and improvements in refining technologies are the main drivers of the market growth. The development of the market is also aided by improved cathode sampling and analytical techniques required for verifying specification compliance. For the development and lowering of the cost of electro-refining copper cathode, new developments and improvements are being made. Copper cathode could be effectively smelted and electro-refined to recover valuable impurities like silver, gold, and nickel from copper ore.

Multiple Benefits of Copper Cathode and Growing Demand in the Developing Countries

There are multiple attractive advantages of copper cathode. For instance, it functions well as an electrical conductor. It has excellent resisting qualities. For products that don't require a high level of conductivity and are simple to install, refined copper cathode proves to be ideal. The development of efficient and cost-effective smart cities and industrial sectors, as well as the quick and continuous industrialization, are driving up demand for the copper cathode in emerging nations.

Restraint

Poor Resistance of Copper Cathode to Common Acids, Abrasion, and Low Tensile Strength

Low tensile strength and poor resistance to common acids are restraints on the Copper Cathode Market. The electro-refining process needed to create copper cathodes requires a lot of investment. Due to its susceptibility to oxidation, it has a reduced life expectancy. Except silver and gold, the copper cathode has higher ductility characteristics than other alternative metals.

Recent Developments

  • According to reports, on November 4, 2021, Ryker Base Pvt. Ltd., a fully owned subsidiary of Polycab India Ltd., was acquired by Hindalco Industries Ltd., the metals flagship firm of the Aditya Birla Group. The purchase would be made by Renuka Investments and Finance Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of Hindalco. A 323, crore enterprise valuation will be used to determine how much of the stock will be purchased.
  • In order to power supply circuits in industrial and communication equipment, ROHM developed the industry's highest (8V) gate breakdown voltage (rated gate source voltage) technology for 150V GaN HEMT devices on May 27, 2021. Due to this, handling current silicon devices during installation and replacement is made easier. Moreover, copper clip junction packaging technology reduces parasitic inductance by 55% when designing circuits for high-frequency operation in comparison to normal packages, improving device performance.
