Description

In terms of value, the global Carboxylic Acid market is predicted to grow at a 5.36% CAGR between 2022 and 2032, reaching USD 54,793.81 million by 2032.

The carboxylic acid market is an important part of the chemical industry, with applications in a variety of sectors. Carboxylic acids are organic molecules with a carboxyl group (-COOH), making them useful in both industrial and consumer applications. They are frequently utilized as raw ingredients for polymers, medicines, food additives, and personal care items. Several factors drive the carboxylic acid market, including rising demand for convenience foods and beverages, increased usage of carboxylic acids in the pharmaceutical industry, and expanded uses in the textile and polymer sectors. Furthermore, growing awareness of the benefits of bio-based carboxylic acids and their environmental sustainability is pushing the industry toward greener alternatives. Challenges, such as fluctuating raw material prices and the requirement for tight regulations to maintain product safety and quality control, can have an impact on market growth.

Market Segment insights
Acetic acid, ascorbic acid, azelaic acid, formic acid, valeric acid, citric acid, stearic acid, caproic acid, benzoic acid, and others are among the carboxylic acid market segments classified by product. The acetic acid sector dominated the market. Acetic carboxylic acid is a white liquid with a strong odor, commonly known as acetic acid or ethanoic acid. It is the principal element in vinegar and has a variety of industrial and culinary applications.

End-use segments of the carboxylic acid market include food and drinks, scents, animal feed, medicines, agrochemicals, and others.

Regional insights
North American carboxylic acid markets will dominate this market. The growing demand for carboxylic acids from the food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries is expected to drive regional market growth. Furthermore, due of their strong scent, esters of carboxylic acids are used to create fragrances, which is projected to raise demand in the market.

The European carboxylic acid market has the second-largest market share due to the widespread use of carboxylic acid derivatives in the production of cosmetics, personal care goods, and colors. Because Germany has the region's largest market for cosmetics and personal care products, it contributes the most, followed by France and the UK.

The Asia-Pacific Carboxylic Acid Market is predicted to expand at the quickest CAGR due to rapid industrialization. The regional market is expected to rise due to the increased use of carboxylic acid derivatives as additives and preservatives in the increasing food and beverage industries. Furthermore, it is projected that the use of carboxylic acids, notably butyric, propionic, and citric, in the production of feed nutritious acidifiers for the animal feed industry will help to expand the regional market.

Major Players
Major players in the carboxylic acid market include BASF SE (Germany), Eastman Chemical Company (US), Dow (US), Jiangsu SOPO (Group) Co. Ltd (China), FINETECH INDUSTRY LIMITED (UK), Celanese Corporation (US), Perstorp (Sweden), Alfa Aesar (US), OXEA GmbH (Germany), Hydrite Chemical (US), GFS Chemicals, and many others.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
