Market Overview:
The global anionic surfactants market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for anionic surfactants from various end-use industries such as home care, personal care, oil & gas, construction, and others. In terms of type, linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS) is the most dominant segment in the global anionic surfactants market and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.8% from 2018 to 2030. Lignosulfonates are projected to be the fastest-growing type segment during the forecast period owing to their growing demand from end-use industries such as oil & gas and construction. In terms of application, home care dominates the global anionic surfactants market with a share of more than 50%.
Product Definition:
Anionic surfactants are surface-active agents that contain anionic functional groups such as carboxylates and sulfates. They are important because they lower the surface tension of water, which makes it easier to remove dirt and oil from surfaces. Anionic surfactants are also responsible for the foaming action of detergents.
Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonate:
Linear alkylbenzene sulfonate, LAS or n-alkyl benzene sulfonate, is an organic compound derived from toluene and xylene. It has a chemical structure similar to that of other alkylbenzene derivatives such as n-propyl benzene sulfonate and n-butyl benzene sulfonate.
Lignosulfonate:
Lignosulfonate is a chemical compound derived from lignite, a type of coal. It is an organic salt and has the formula (C 6 H 5 ) 2 O 7 . The anion produced by deprotonation of the cationic surfactant formed by oxidation of lignosulfonate (LSO 4 -) is known as the lignosulfonate anion or S-anion.
Application Insights:
The global anionic surfactants market is segmented on the basis of application into home care, personal care, oil & gas, construction and others. The other applications include food processing and pharmaceuticals. Personal care was the largest application segment in 2017 accounting for over 40% of the overall revenue share. This large share can be attributed to increasing demand from various end-use industries such as cosmetics and skin treatment products which utilize these surfactants for their formulations.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific is expected to be the largest as well as the fastest-growing regional market over the forecast period. The growth in this region can be attributed to increasing product demand from various end-use industries, such as personal care and cosmetics, home care products, pharmaceuticals and food & beverage.
The presence of a large number of global players coupled with favorable government regulations has resulted in high penetration of anionic surfactants across various industry verticals in Asia Pacific. China is one of the largest producers and consumers for these products owing to easy availability at affordable prices coupled with technological advancements made by domestic manufacturers over past few years.
North America emerged as second-largest consumer for global anionic surfactants market on account rising concerns regarding skin disorders among consumers along with growing awareness about personal hygiene standards across U.S.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from end-use industries such as personal care, home care, and industrial cleaning
- Rising awareness about the benefits of anionic surfactants over other surfactant types
- Growing investments in R&D to develop new and better anionic surfactants products
- Expansion of global production capacities by key players to meet rising demand
- Emergence of new applications for anionic surfactants in areas such as oil & gas production, food processing, and pharmaceuticals
