Benzoic Acid Market Segments and Key Trends 2016-2026

Benzoic acid is a crystalline and colorless aromatic carboxylic acid with chemical formula C6H5COOH. Initially, Benzoic acid was obtained from resin of trees belonging to the Styrax genus, also known as gum benzoin. Benzoic acid is widely used as a preservative to inhibit the growth of bacteria and fungi in the food and beverages industry. This odorless chemical is also used as a chemical reagent.

Benzoic acid and its salts used as preservatives are represented by E- numbers, E210, E211, E212, and E213. Benzoates are salts and esters of Benzoic acid. Benzoic acid when used as a preservative is added with a concentration of 0.05-0.1% to the food products. The rising demands for packaged food and beverages fuel the demand for Benzoic acid market growth globally. Benzoic acid and benzoate are used to preserve acidified food products such as fruit juice, pickles (vinegar), sparkling drinks, etc. as the efficacy of both of them depends on the pH of food.Benzoic acid is also used in chemical, pharmaceutical, plastics, and in other industries. It is used for the production of Benzoate Plasticizer, Benzoyl Chloride, and Alkyd Resins. The application of Benzoic acid can also be traced in medical, dye intermediates, and for animal feed. Benzoic acid is used as a constituent for the treatment of fungal skin diseases such as ringworm, athlete’s foot, tinea, etc.

Benzoic acid is a common constituent in toothpastes, mouthwashes, deodorants, etc. in which it acts as an anti-microbial agent. The strong demand for the benzoate plasticizers also gives a positive outlook in the global expansion of its market.

Benzoic acid is soluble in water. This property of Benzoic acid makes it possible to purify it by recrystallization from hot water and cold water, since it is more soluble in hot water and less soluble in cold water. Benzoic acid is readily available in the market in a relatively cheaper price and hence it can be easily used by students, researchers as well as scientists.

Benzoic Acid: Market Dynamics

Increasing demand of packaged food and beverages drive the demand for Benzoic acid market across the world. Food preservation is necessary to increase the shelf life of the packaged food products which drives the growth of Benzoic acid market. Increasing demand for the replacement of phthalate plasticizers by benzoate plasticizers for different applications is likely to drive the demand for Benzoic acid market.

Rising population, higher income, and changing psychographics of Asian countries drive the growth of Benzoic acid market in the region. The consumption of Benzoic acid allows the market to remain relatively higher in the Asia-Pacific region, which will boost the advancement of this market. Rising demand for sodium and potassium benzoate also has been supporting the growth of Benzoic acid market. Per capita plastic consumption is following a higher rate in countries like India and China, which will enhance the demand for plasticizers and ultimately drive the market growth for Benzoic acid. Strict regulations in developed countries may limit the growth of alkyd resin and ultimately the Benzoic acid market. Benzoic acid is not dangerous when used in lower concentration. However, it can harm lungs and digestive tract after prolonged usage and exposure to the substance. Like any other chemicals, Benzoic acid also has some toxic properties which stagnates the growth of the market.
