Market Dynamics.

Drivers.

Robust demand from the cosmetics industry

The cosmetics and personal care sector is one of the emerging sectors across the globe where zinc nano metal oxides are extensively used to formulate various skincare and body care products such as lotions, sunscreen, gels, and moisturizers which will protect the skin from U.V. rays. Therefore, the growing demand from the cosmetics and personal care industry has increased the potential sales of nanometal oxides in the market.

Restraints.

Side effects associated with nano metal oxides

There are numerous uses for nano metal oxides in various end-use industries. However, inhaling nanometal oxides will hurt the health and cause lung damage and skin cancer. For instance, according to an article published by Cancer Council, zinc oxide nanoparticles (commonly used sunscreen active ingredients) do not reach viable skin cells; instead, they remain on the skin's surface and in the outer layer of the skin composed of non-viable cells. These factors are restraining the overall growth of the nano metal oxides market.
