Global Acetic Anhydride Market Drivers/Constraints:
The demand for acetic anhydride is largely driven by huge demand from the cigarette tow market, which requires cellulose acetate flakes. The increasing number of smokers, particularly in the emerging economies, have facilitated the market growth.
Cellulose acetate also finds extensive applications in the textiles and clothing industry due to its comfortable, breathable, and absorbent nature.
Emerging economies provide immense opportunities for the acetic anhydride market to expand on account of the increasing demand generated by the pharmaceutical industry where it is used for the production of aspirin.
The stringent regulations due to the harmful environmental effects of acetic anhydride, coupled with strict monitoring of acetic anhydride trading for its use in the production of heroine, are major factors hindering the market growth.
End-Use Insights:
Based on end-use, the market is segregated into cellulose acetate, pharmaceuticals and Tetraacetylethylenediamine (TAED). Amongst these, the cellulose acetate industry represents the largest consumer of acetic anhydride as it is further used to produce cigarette filters, textiles, wound dressings, hygiene products, tool handles, etc.
Regional Insights:
On a geographical front, North America represents the leading market, accounting for the majority of the total global consumption. Other major regions include China, Western Europe, North-east Asia, South-east Asia, Middle East and Africa and Eastern Europe.
