“The monochloroacetic acid (MCA)market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 3.6% between 2017 and 2022, in terms of value”

The MCA market is estimated at USD 762.6million in 2017 and is projected to reach USD 908.9 million by 2022, at a CAGR of 3.6% between 2017 and 2022.The market growth is fueled by the increasing demand for MCA from end-use industries, such as construction, agrochemical, and surfactant. Increasing population, rising GDP, growing disposable income, improving standards of living, and the increasing number of joint ventures, acquisitions, and other development activities by leading market players have also contributed to the growth of the global MCA market. On the other hand, harmful effects of MCA exposurepose a challenge to the market growth. MCA requires careful handling and appropriate operation/processing techniques. The diluted MCA can cause eye and skin irritations upon contact; whereas, the concentrated MCA can be more harmful, causing skin corrosion and conjunctival burns. However, the high demand from the construction industry in emerging economies, such as China, India, Malaysia, Indonesia, Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, and others is expected to create enormous opportunities for the MCA manufacturers, during the forecast period.

“The liquid segment is projected to be the fastest-growing product form segment of the market during the forecast period”

The liquid form segment is projected to be the fastest-growing product form segment of the MCA market during the forecast period, in terms of both value and volume. This growth can be attributed to its (liquid form) easy miscibility as an intermediate and efficient operation. Increased R&D activities to develop new and innovative products for use across a wide range of application areas are expected to boost the growth of the MCA market during the forecast period.

“The surfactants segment is projected to be the fastest-growing application segment of the market during the forecast period”

Based on application, the surfactants segment is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period, in terms of both value and volume. The increasing adoption of surfactants in the cosmetic industry of developing countries, such as India, China, Indonesia, and Brazil, is expected to drive the demand for MCA in this application. Increasing disposable income and changing lifestyles of consumers are key factors driving the growth of the surfactants market in emerging economies. Surfactant-based face wash, gel, and hair cream, among other personal care products, are replacing conventional products, owing to their cleansing ability, ease of usage, and customization.

“Asia Pacific is projected to be the largest market for MCA between 2017 and 2022”

The Asia Pacific region is projected to be the largest and the fastest-growing market for MCA during the forecast period, in terms of both value and volume. Large industrial base and increased infrastructural activities are the major drivers for the growth of the MCA market in this region. Increased industrialization in emerging economies, such as Indonesia, India, and China, also drives the MCA market growth in the region.

China dominates the Asia Pacific MCA market. The country’ consumption of MCA has grown significantly and is expected to grow further in the near future. The high growth of the MCA market in China is attributed to the country’s growing population, infrastructural development, and rapid urbanization. Additionally, more than half of the MCA consumed globally, is manufactured in China.
