Selenium is a rare mineral. It is amorphous in nature and has a brick-red powder appearance. When melted, rapidly it forms black, vitreous form, which is usually sold commercially as beads.
The most stable and dense form of selenium is gray selenium, which has a hexagonal crystal lattice structure consisting of helical polymeric chains. Selenium forms two oxides, namely, selenium dioxide and selenium trioxide. Selenium dioxide is formed when elemental selenium reacts with oxygen and selenium trioxide is formed when anhydrous potassium selenate reacts with sulfur trioxide. Salts of selenous acids are called selenites.
The metallurgy segment accounted for the major shares of the selenium market. The increasing addition of selenium to iron, lead, magnesium, and copper alloys to improve their strength, ductility, and machinability, will be a major factor contributing to the growth of this industry segment in the coming years.
This market study estimates that in terms of geographic regions, the Americas will be the major revenue contributor to the selenium market throughout the forecast period. The increasing usage of selenium in metallurgy, the need to develop lightweight automotive parts, and the rising advancements in advanced compatibility engineering, will drive the growth of the market in this region.
