Market Research Future Published a Research Study on Benzoic Acid Market Research Report, Size, Share and Industry Analysis - Forecast to 2023

Benzoic Acid Market Overview

Market Research Future (MRFR) has announced a new release on the global benzoic acid market. The report predicts the global benzoic acid market to exhibit a sturdy 5.92% CAGR over the forecast period (2018-2023), rising from a value of USD 868 million in 2017 to USD 1,219 million by the end of the forecast period in 2023.

Benzoic acid is a carboxylic acid with the chemical formula C6H5COOH. It has various functional properties, including antifungal and antibacterial properties, which have made it popular in a number of end-use industries. It is naturally found in a number of fruits, including plums, prunes, cranberries, and raspberries, and is primarily used in the food and beverage, chemical, and pharmaceutical industry.

The growing use of benzoic acid in personal care products and cosmetics is likely to be a major driver for the global benzoic acid market over the forecast period. Benzoic acid and salicylic acid are often used in conjunction to counter the threat of fungus, as they both have excellent antifungal properties. The increasing demand for well-crafted and effective personal care products, especially in developing economies round the world, is likely to be a major driver for the global benzoic acid market over the coming years.

Growing demand from the food and beverage industry is likely to be a major driver for the global benzoic acid market. Benzoic acid and its sodium, potassium, or calcium salts are used as a food preservative due to their effective antifungal property. The growing demand for preserved and packaged food from the global consumer demographic is likely to drive the demand for effective natural preservatives such as benzoic acid.

Plasticizers derived from benzoic acid, i.e. benzoate plasticizers, are also likely to be a major fruitful channel for the key players in the global benzoic acid market. While phthalates are widely used as plasticizers at present, the environmental impact of the same has been adverse. This has led to a renewed interest in finding alternatives that don’t hurt the environment and still fulfill the important functional criteria. Benzoate plasticizers are likely to find increasing demand in the global plastics market over the coming years, driving the demand from the global benzoic acid market.
