Product Definition:
Silicified Microcrystalline Cellulose (SMCC) is a derivative of cellulose that has been altered by the addition of silicon dioxide. SMCC is used as a thickening and stabilizing agent in food products, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals.
SMCC 50:
SMCC 50 is a cellulose ether, which has been developed as an alternative to hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC). Cellulose ethers are gaining importance in the food and beverage industry owing to their high viscosity and low water solubility. This product is manufactured by chemical modification of cellulose with an aim to improve its mechanical, thermal, electrical and other properties.
SMCC 90:
SMCC 90 is a cellulose ether, which is produced from the crystallization of cellulose in water. It has an amorphous structure and hence it cannot be used for manufacturing films or fibers. Cellulose ethers are mostly used as viscosity agents, stabilizers, thickeners and lubricants in various end-use industries such as food & beverages, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics among others.
Application Insights:
The other application segment includes food and beverages, paper and paperboard, textile industry, paints and coatings, pharmaceuticals. The product finds application in the manufacturing of films for food packaging; shrink film; stretch film; bottles for water & soft drinks (330ml-600ml), personal care products such as shampoos and conditioners; household care products such as cleaners.
The pharmaceutical industry is expected to be one of the prominent users owing to its rising demand for silicified microcrystalline cellulose due to properties such as high viscosity index (ranging between 35-40) which makes it an effective thickener in liquid medicines. It is also used in solid dosage forms like tablets & pills on account of its excellent moisture retention property which helps prevent drug degradation caused by exposure to oxygen or light.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2017. The region is expected to witness a CAGR of XX% over the forecast period owing to increasing demand for pharmaceuticals and other industrial applications in countries, such as China, India, Japan, South Korea and Taiwan. In addition, rising disposable income coupled with an expanding population base is anticipated to fuel product demand across end-use industries including packaging and construction over the coming years.
The growth of end-use markets in Asia Pacific has encouraged vendors from China and Japan to invest heavily in R&D activities related to SMCC products with high strength properties that are used as raw material for manufacturing various parts including bottles/cans/tubes etc., thereby boosting regional market growth significantly.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for functional foods and dietary supplements
- Rising awareness about the benefits of SMCC among consumers
- Growing demand from the pharmaceutical industry
- Technological advancements in the production of SMCC
- Expansion of application areas for SMCC
