Succinic Acid Market: Drivers and Key Restraints
Boost in demand for 1,4-butanediol, which is viewed as a building block for polyurethanes and resins & plasticizers has hiked up the demand for succinic acid. Moreover, succinic acid finds use as a sequestrant in the food industry, as it helps enhance stability as well as the quality of food products. Therefore, with the increasing concern over food quality and expanding the use of succinic acid in these industries, the global market could expect a lucrative run during the forecast period.
On a similar note, succinic acid also finds extensive use in the production of medicines for menopause, pain and arthritis, among others. This factor is bound to have a profitable effect on the succinic acid market in the coming years. Government initiatives within developed regions like Europe and North America favoring the adoption of bio-based chemicals aimed at sustainable development stimulate market growth.
Additionally, rising use of bio-based succinic acid to manufacture polyurethanes compared to adipic acid is presumed to spur the succinic acid market growth. With that said, wavering prices of crude oil could negatively affect the succinic acid market to some extent.
