概要

Stratistics MRCによると、ヨウ化カリウムの世界市場は2024年に10億6,718万米ドルを占め、CAGR 9.5%で2030年には18億3,960万米ドルに達すると予測されています。

ヨウ化カリウム(KI)はカリウムとヨウ素からなる化合物です。ヨウ化カリウムは、医療、工業、食品用途で一般的に使用されています。医療では、主にヨウ素欠乏症を予防し、放射線緊急時に甲状腺を保護するために使用されます。食品産業では、ヨウ化カリウムを食塩に添加してヨウ素添加塩を作り、ヨウ素欠乏症の予防に役立っています。さらに、化学合成、写真撮影、実験室での試薬としての用途もあります。

世界保健機関(WHO)によると、世界中でおよそ18億人がヨウ素欠乏症に罹患しているといいます。同国際機関の報告書によれば、世界人口の10%以上がヨウ素添加塩を入手できていないといわれています。

ヨウ素欠乏症の増加

ヨウ素欠乏症は、特にヨウ素を豊富に含む食品へのアクセスが制限されている地域では、世界中の何百万人もの人々に影響を及ぼす、公衆衛生上の大きな懸念であり続けています。ヨウ素の信頼できる供給源として、ヨウ素添加塩の製造に使用されるヨウ化カリウムは、ヨウ素欠乏の解消に不可欠です。甲状腺機能障害や発育障害を含むヨウ素欠乏症に対処するため、政府や健康団体はヨウ素添加塩の使用を提唱しています。ヨウ素不足による健康被害への意識が高まるにつれ、ヨウ化カリウムの食品へのニーズも高まっています。
