據(jù)國(guó)外一家專(zhuān)業(yè)行業(yè)研究機(jī)構(gòu)的研究報(bào)告稱(chēng)，世界水泥和混凝土外加劑需求將每年上升6%，到2012年將達(dá)到162億美元。相對(duì)于2002-2007年全球建筑業(yè)蓬勃發(fā)展推動(dòng)水泥和外加劑需求大漲，今后三年的收益增加速度將有所下降。
展望未來(lái)，亞洲和東歐這兩個(gè)新興市場(chǎng)和北美這個(gè)水泥工業(yè)更成熟的市場(chǎng)，化學(xué)和纖維外加劑將進(jìn)一步滲透到混凝土施工中。由于化學(xué)和纖維外加劑的獲接受度和提供的利潤(rùn)空間在上升，它們的需求將以最快的速度增長(zhǎng)，特別的，預(yù)計(jì)高性能超塑化減水劑需求將強(qiáng)勁增長(zhǎng)，這種減水劑有利于混凝土澆筑并提高混凝土結(jié)構(gòu)的強(qiáng)度。纖維外加劑的銷(xiāo)售量將在新生建筑市場(chǎng)快速增長(zhǎng)，尤其亞太地區(qū)。礦物外加劑需求也將有堅(jiān)實(shí)的增長(zhǎng)，特別是在高增長(zhǎng)，高容量的水泥市場(chǎng)，如中國(guó)和印度。
在世界三大地區(qū)中，據(jù)預(yù)測(cè)水泥和混凝土外加劑需求最強(qiáng)地區(qū)將是亞太地區(qū)，這是由于這里的水泥市場(chǎng)增長(zhǎng)迅速，例如中國(guó)和印度。這一地區(qū)還將受益于韓國(guó)和臺(tái)灣的建筑活動(dòng)反彈。然而，高度成熟的日本市場(chǎng)對(duì)外加劑的需求增速將較為溫和，這將限制亞太地區(qū)外加劑的需求增長(zhǎng)。雖然北美水泥工業(yè)也是相當(dāng)成熟，但由于Freedonia集團(tuán)有限公司側(cè)重于更多的生產(chǎn)耐久性更強(qiáng)的混凝土和應(yīng)用礦物廢料的產(chǎn)品，北美地區(qū)的外加劑需求仍將高于平均水平。2007年第二大的區(qū)域市場(chǎng)西歐市場(chǎng)，對(duì)于外加劑需求的收益到2012年可能將低于預(yù)期水平。北美地區(qū)化學(xué)和礦物外加劑的應(yīng)用已十分廣泛，這限制了該地區(qū)未來(lái)需求的增長(zhǎng)。由于應(yīng)用豐富的爐渣和粉煤灰廢料資源，并跟隨歐盟混凝土施工中添加外加劑的趨勢(shì)，由俄羅斯領(lǐng)導(dǎo)的中歐地區(qū)外加劑需求增長(zhǎng)將是最快的。拉丁美洲和非洲/中東地區(qū)的需求將由于這些地區(qū)工業(yè)化加速、基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施發(fā)展和建設(shè)現(xiàn)代化而有所增加。

Global demand for cement and concrete additives will rise 6% pa for the next 3 years
(Freedonia Report) -- World demand for cement and concrete additives will rise 6.0 percent per year to $16.2 billion in 2012. Gains will represent a modest deceleration from the 2002-2007 period, in which a global construction boom fueled surging demand for cement and associated additives. Going forward, advances will be driven by increased penetration of chemical and fiber additives in concrete construction, in both emerging markets in Asia and Eastern Europe as well as the more mature cement industry in North America.
These and other trends are presented in World Cement & Concrete Additives, a new study from The Freedonia Group, Inc., a Cleveland-based industry research firm.
Demand for chemical and fiber additives will grow at the fastest pace as acceptance of these products and the benefits they provide continues to rise. In particular, strong growth is expected for high-performance superplasticizing water reducers, which facilitate concrete pouring and enhance the strength of concrete structures. Sales of fiber additives will expand most rapidly in emerging construction markets, particularly in the Asia/Pacific region. Mineral additives will also see solid gains in demand, particularly in high-growth, high-volume cement markets such as China and India.
Among the three major world regions, strongest advances are forecast for cement and concrete additives in the Asia/Pacific region, which is home to rapidly growing cement markets such as China and India. Gains in the region will also benefit from a rebound in construction activity in South Korea and Taiwan. However, more moderate growth in the highly mature Japanese market will limit increases for additives in the region. Although the cement industry in North America is also quite mature, above-average gains in additive demand will be driven by an increased focus on The Freedonia Group, Inc. production of more durable concrete and utilization of mineral waste products. Demand for additives in Western Europe, the second largest regional market in 2007, will post subpar gains through 2012. The use of both chemical and mineral additives is already widespread in the region, restricting prospects for growth. Additive demand in Eastern Europe, led by Russia, will advance the fastest, fueled by increased utilization of abundant slag and fly ash waste materials and incorporation of EU trends of additive use in concrete construction. Growth in Latin America and the Africa/Mideast region will be driven by increasing industrialization, infrastructure development and modernization of construction practices.
