Biomass Furan Dicarboxylic Acid (FDCA) Market Summary

Furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) is a raw material with commercial applications including surfactants, epoxy resins, and the next-generation polymer PEF (polyethylene furanoate). Furan-based monomers made from 5-HMF are key components of new high-performance biopolymers such as polyesters, polyurethanes, and polyamides. Furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) and its dimethyl ester (FDME) are two promising monomers that can be processed into polyethyl furanoate (PEF) and other polyesters or polycarbonates.

According to the new market research report "Global Biomass Furan Dicarboxylic Acid (FDCA) Market Report 2025-2031", published by QYResearch, the global Biomass Furan Dicarboxylic Acid (FDCA) market size is projected to reach USD 1.52 billion by 2031, at a CAGR of 12.6% during the forecast period.

Biomass Furan Dicarboxylic Acid (FDCA)

Based on or includes research from QYResearch: Global Biomass Furan Dicarboxylic Acid (FDCA) Market Report 2025-2031.

In terms of product type, currently 5-HMF is the largest segment, hold a share of 99.1%.

In terms of product application, currently PEF is the largest segment, hold a share of 91.7%.

Key Drivers:

Compared to PET, furan polymers such as polyethyl furanoate (PEF) offer superior gas barrier properties. They can keep soda fizzy longer by blocking the ingress of oxygen and carbon dioxide. According to Corbion, this can double shelf life. Since avoiding food waste is the biggest argument in favor of plastic packaging, improving its ability to preserve food will increase plastic's green street cred.

FDCA can be converted into polyamides for engineering plastics and fibers; polyurethanes for foams, coatings, and adhesives; and esters for personal care products and lubricants. Given its strong barrier properties, furan polymers have the potential to steal market share from glass and aluminum; a frequently cited example is beer bottles.

Petrochemicals, with their high greenhouse gas emissions and low recycling rates, are driving increasing emphasis on "carbon reduction" policies by local governments. Bio-based products, derived from natural sources, align with local environmental expectations and enjoy support from local government policies.

Key Restraints:

PEF and other furan plastics face the same hurdles as bio-based PET, if not more. Commercializing these two resins requires significantly expanding new raw material supply chains and reducing costs to compete with traditional plastics. Furthermore, PEF is not a direct replacement for PET. To fully realize the furan's properties, bottles and other packaging would need to be redesigned.

By weight, bio-based furan polymers produced from FDCA cost two to four times more than petroleum-derived competitors.

Trends:

As early as 2004, the U.S. Department of Energy screened over 300 biomass-derived compounds and identified 12 of the most representative bio-based platform compounds. Among them, 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) is a representative aromatic bio-based platform chemical and is considered the most suitable alternative to the petroleum-derived terephthalic acid.

Currently, FDCA is primarily produced by oxidation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), which is primarily produced by hydrolysis and dehydration of glucose and starch. This has exacerbated the global food crisis and limited the availability of FDCA.

Unlike HMF, furfural is currently produced industrially from abundant polypentoses such as corncobs, wheat bran, and sawdust, which do not compete with the human food supply. Furfural is obtained by hydrolyzing polypentoses into monosaccharides under acidic conditions and then dehydrating them. Therefore, the carbonylation reaction of furfural with CO to synthesize FDCA is more competitive than the oxidation reaction of HMF in terms of both raw material cost and reaction complexity. FDCA holds great potential as a terephthalic acid (TA) alternative. Its downstream product, polyethylene 2,5-furandicarboxylate (PEF), is not only highly sustainable and recyclable compared to polyethylene terephthalate (PET), but also offers significant advantages in performance, such as heat resistance, mechanical strength, and gas barrier properties.

Furandicarboxylic acid, a key platform compound derived from the oxidation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, is considered a renewable and green alternative to petroleum-based terephthalic acid (TPA). Furthermore, furandicarboxylic acid can replace isophthalic acid, succinic acid, and bisphenol A in the preparation of bio-based polymers such as polyesters, polyamides, and epoxy resins.
