Bio-acrylic Acid Market - Industry Analysis, Market Size, Share, Trends, Application Analysis, Growth And Forecast (2022 - 2027)
The global bio-acrylic acid market size is forecast to reach US$9.2 billion in 2027 after growing at a CAGR of 7% during 2022-2027. The bio-acrylic acid market is on the rise owing to its eco-friendly and renewability nature as compared to conventional organic acids. Superabsorbent polymer is projected to contribute hugely to the market’s growth. Superabsorbent polymers come with excellent large volumes of liquid absorption and retaining quality which makes them suitable for fluid-containing products such as diapers, absorbent medical dressings, adult incontinence pads, etc. Acrylic esters dominated the market in the last few years. The acrylic esters are segmented into ethyl acrylate, methyl acrylate, hydroxypropyl acrylate, ethylhexyl acrylate, and butyl acrylate. Corn is anticipated to drive the bio-acrylic acid market’s growth owing to its renewable nature and increasing environmental concerns. The high usage of paints and coatings in the expanding construction activity is expected to contribute extensively to the market's growth in the coming years. However, the need for cost-effective production of bio-acrylic acid might slow down the growth of the target market.
COVID-19 Impact
The bio-acrylic acid market suffered badly due to the COVID-19 impact. Disruptions in supply chain and factory shutdowns disturbed the bio-acrylic acid ecosystem, creating a shortage in feedstock used in the manufacturing of bio-acrylic acid. Moreover, the shutdown of the construction and industrial sector which utilizes bio-acrylic acid-based paints and coatings, adhesives, and sealants, also affected the target market severely during the pandemic. However, once the market got operational post-COVID-19, there has been an increasing demand for bio-acrylic acid due to rapid construction work globally. Also, due to the increased consciousness about clean surroundings and personal hygiene, the demand for laundry care products has jumped amid the pandemic, which saw bio-acrylic acid used in the production of liquid laundry detergent, contributing to the growth of the bio-acrylic acid market. Going forward, as there are too many construction activities going on globally, the target market will witness huge growth owing to the usage of bio-based paints and coatings, adhesives, etc.
