Global Propionic Acid Market Analysis,Growth and Share 2024
Propionic Acid Market Synopsis
Market Research Future postulates that the global propionic acid market is predicted to demonstrate a stellar CAGR during the appraisal period (2017-2023). Application in food preservatives is highly favoring the market growth. Propionic acid or PA is termed as a naturally occurring carboxylic acid which is a colorless liquid and possesses rancid odor. It occurs naturally in essential oils in the form of esters and can also be commercially obtained by the hydrocarboxylation of ethylene where nickel carbonyl as a catalyst acts as a catalyst. Propionic acid is miscible with a few organic solvents and with water and is also known as carboxyethane, carboxylic acid, ethyl formic acid, ethane carboxylic acid, and others.
Propionic Acid Market Potential and Pitfalls
Propionic acid is majorly driven by its application in the food preservatives and animal feed. While 50% of the global propionic acid is consumed by the food preservative and animal feedstock, 30% of it is used to produce ammonium, calcium, and sodium salts, which are used in the food industry. With the accelerating consumption of herbicides in the agricultural sector, the market for propionic acid is estimated to flourish worldwide. The production of cellulose acetate propionate is also considered as a major driver of the global market and is extensively used in applications which require clarity, low odor, anti-blocking and good adhesion, and fast solvent release to a variety of substrates. They are also adaptable in clear overprint varnishes and printing inks due to its wide solubility in ink solvents, high melting point, and compatibility with other resins which are used in printing inks. Organic acids like propionic acid play a crucial role in the preservation of grain.
