The Purified Terephthalic Acid (PTA) market is estimated to be USD 48.14 Billion in 2018 and is projected to reach USD 61.78 Billion by 2023, at a CAGR of 5.1% from 2018 to 2023. PTA is an organic compound produced commercially through the oxidation of paraxylene. A majority of PTA is consumed in the development of polyester resins, such as polyester films, polyester fiber & yarn, and PET material bottles.
The increase in demand for polyester resins to manufacture polyester fiber & yarn is fueling the growth of the purified terephthalic acid market. However, the overcapacity of PTA in China is acting as a restraint to the growth of the purified terephthalic acid market.
Reliance Industries Limited (India), Sinopec Corporation (China), British Petroleum (UK), Indorama Ventures Public Company (Thailand), SABIC (Saudi Arabia), and Jiaxing Petrochemical Co., Ltd. (China) are key players operating in the purified terephthalic acid market. These companies are focused on expanding their product portfolios to compete with other key market players.
