Global Ferrofluid Market to Reach US$ 105.7 Million by 2034, Expanding at 5.3% CAGR

06-10-2025 07:13 PM CET | Chemicals & Materials

Press release from: FactMR

The global ferrofluid market is estimated at a valuation of US$ 63 million in 2024 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of 5.3% to reach US$ 105.7 million by the end of 2034.

Ferrofluids are a class of colloidal suspension solutions characterized by the presence of nanoscale magnetic particles dispersed within a carrier liquid (nanotechnology). These minuscule particles, typically measured in the nanometer range, exhibit a strong response to external magnetic fields. This allows them to modify their physical properties.

Ferrofluids are different from other magnetic fluids, such as magnetorheological (MR) fluids, which employ micron-sized particles and consequently possess lower suspension stability. The superior stability of ferrofluids, arising from their smaller particle size, translates to extended suspension times. Their unique magnetic responsiveness to external magnetic fields has made them accessible to diverse fields, ranging from advanced sealing technologies to microfluidic manipulation applications.

The biomedical industry is the second-largest user of ferrofluids. They are utilized for research and development into biosensors, therapy, and medical imaging techniques. Ferrofluids are subjected to several transformations to be suitable for use in specific applications. In one case, surface modifiers are added to colloidal magnetic ferrofluids to form novel contrasting agents, enabling the incoming electromagnetic radiation generated by a large magnet surrounding the scanner in the MRI machine to pass through tissues and organs during the medical imaging process.
