Based on type, inorganic minerals/clays has the largest share in the global hygroscopic building material market. Bentonite is a naturally occurring material produced by the alteration of volcanic ash in marine environments. It mainly consists of the clay mineral smectite, usually montmorillonite which is a highly adsorbent, chemically inert, and non-corrosive substance. Bentonite possesses exceptional hygroscopic properties, plasticity and lubricity, high shear and compressive strength, high dry-bonding strength, low permeability, and low compressibility that make bentonite commercially viable. Bentonite is widely used in foundry sand binding, drilling mud, iron ore palletization, and as a waterproofing and sealing agent in civil engineering works. It has an ability to swell and gel when dispersed in water, which facilitates its use in construction applications, mainly in excavation and foundation works.
Based on application, The building material segment dominated the hygroscopic building material market, with a share of 60.4% in terms of value, of the overall market in 2021. Hygroscopic building materials such as amorphous silica, activated alumina, and calcium oxides are used in concrete materials owing to their excellent moisture adsorbing ability. Lime or calcium oxide is one of the principal ingredients in the production of portland cement, the basis for most mortars and concrete
