Iron Powder
Iron powder is formed as a whole from several other iron particles. The particle sizes vary anywhere from 20-200 μm. The iron properties differ depending on the production method and history of a specific iron powder. There are three types of iron powder classifications: reduced iron powder, atomized powder, and electrolyte iron powder. Each type is used in various applications depending on their properties. There is very little difference in the visual appearances of reduced iron powder and atomized iron powder.

Market perspective
Iron powder is formed as a whole from several other iron particles. The particle sizes vary anywhere from 20-200 μm. The iron properties differ depending on the production method and history of a specific iron powder. There are three types of iron powder classifications: reduced iron powder, atomized powder, and electrolyte iron powder. Each type is used in various applications depending on their properties. There is very little difference in the visual appearances of reduced iron powder and atomized iron powder.
Iron powder has two major types, such as atomized iron powder and reduced iron powder. Due to the good coactivity, high purity and high compressibility of atomized iron powder, it will have a huge market potential. Iron powder is widely used in automobile, machinery, chemical industry, magnetic materials and others.
Asia-Pacific is the dominate consumer of iron powder, occupied about 38% of the total amount in 2019.
