Anionic Surfactants - Global Market Outlook (2018-2027)
According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Anionic Surfactants market is accounted for $17.91 billion in 2018 and is expected to reach $30.51 billion by 2027 growing at a CAGR of 6.1% during the forecast period. Some of the factors such as rising need for greener and sustainable surfactants, and growth in end user industries are driving the growth of the market. However, the stringent government regulations on toxic chemicals is restraining the growth of the market.
Surfactants are organic chemicals or surface active agents that change the properties of water. Surfactants are a special class of versatile amphiphilic compounds and major constituents in cleaning products. Generally, based on the nature and type of surface active moiety group present in the molecule, surfactants are classified as anionic surfactants, cationic surfactants and nonionic surfactants. Anionic surfactants are negatively charged, relatively less expensive, employed in an extremely wide variety of surfactant-based applications and have relatively higher pH. Anionic surfactants contain carboxylates, sulfonates, dispersants, sulfates or phosphates. Anionic surfactants having hydrophobic properties & it act as a foaming agents. In term of properties, anionic surfactants exhibit foam stability, detergency and hard water tolerance properties, among others.
Based on type, the Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonate (LAS) segment has a growing prominence in the forecast period. LAS are most widely used anionic surfactant as an active agent in detergents for home care applications. They are used in applications as foaming, wetting, and cleaning agents, among others. On the basis of geography, Asia Pacific is likely to have a huge demand in the forecast period due to the increasing population and improving lifestyles at each financial stratum. Moreover, high consumption potential, growing production capacities, competitive manufacturing costs, and high economic growth are the major driving forces for the market in the region.
