Report Overview:
Illite is a secondary mineral precipitate and an example of a phyllosilicate, or layered alumino-silicate. It occurs as an altered product of muscovite and feldspar in weathering and hydrothermal environments. Structurally, illite is similar to muscovite but contains slightly more silicon, magnesium, iron, and water, and slightly less tetrahedral aluminum and interlayer potassium. Due to its unique chemical composition, illite is widely used in various industrial applications, including ceramics, coatings, and personal care products.
Market Value:
The global Illite market was valued at approximately USD 820 million in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 1,113.62 million by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 3.90% during the forecast period.
