Thioglycolic Acid Market
Description
Thioglycolic Acid Market, By Grade (High Purity Grade, Low Purity Grade, Technical Grade), By Application (Cosmetics, Oil and Gas, Plastic and Polymer Chemicals, Leather Processing, Cleaning Agents, Others)By Geography (North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East, and Africa)
Thioglycolic acid (TGA), also called mercaptoacetic acid (MAA), is a high-performance chemical containing mercaptan and carboxylic acid functionalities.TGA is completely miscible in water and, in general, polar organic solvents. TGA is a strong reducing agent, especially at high pH, and forms powerful complexes with metals that give it specific characteristics. This acid is used in industries and applications as diverse as cosmetics, oil and gas, polymerization, fine chemistry, leather processing, cleaning, and metal recovery. In organic synthesis, thioglycolic acid acts as a sulfur transfer agent for sulfonyl chloride synthesis and a nucleophile in thioglycolysis reactions. Further, it is used in leather processing.
Market Dynamics
Increasing demand from the oil and gas sector for corrosion inhibitors and flow stimulators is expected to bolster demand for thioglycolic acid in the forecast period. The Bronsted acid characteristics of thioglycolic acid and its thiol functionality make it a chemical of choice for the preparation or regeneration of metal catalysts for hydrodesulfurization. The corrosion inhibiting properties of thioglycolic acid make it the most commonly used chemical for oil and gas and several other industries. The application of thioglycolic acid in corrosion inhibition is suppressing or at least mitigating the corrosion process of metals in different fields, spanning from industrial sectors to construction materials to surface treatments for cultural heritage.
According to the report presented by the Center for the Promotion of Imports Central Bureau of Investigation in March 2022, with increasing disposable income in emerging economies such as Germany, China, and India, demand is highest in the skin care, toiletries, and hair care product categories, thereby positively impacting the thioglycolic acid demand growth. Cosmetics are skincare products that enhance the appearance or odor of the human body. The salts of thioglycolic acid and some of its esters are used in the formulation of perms and for the preparation of depilatory creams. In these applications, the main salts are ammonium thioglycolate and potassium thioglycolate. In some applications, glycerol monothioglycolate is also used.
