Market Overview:
The global hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) 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 HPMC from various end-use industries such as pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food industry, and others. In terms of type, the pharmaceutical grade segment is projected to lead the global HPMC market during the forecast period. This can be attributed to its growing demand from various end-use industries such as construction and pharmaceuticals.
Product Definition:
Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) is a derivative of cellulose, the main component of plant cell walls. It is made by treating cellulose with propylene oxide, which adds hydroxypropyl groups to the molecule. These make HPMC more soluble in water and give it better film-forming properties than unmodified cellulose.
Pharmaceutical Grade:
Pharmaceutical grade Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC) is a cellulose ether, which is produced by the chemical modification of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose. It has several properties such as high viscosity, thermal stability and sterilizability. Pharmaceutical-grade HPMC finds application in drug delivery systems and medical devices where it acts as a stabilizer, diluent or excipient.
Industrial Grade:
Industrial grade is a high purity form of Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC) that has passed through numerous quality control procedures. It is used in various applications such as adhesives, paints & coatings, and plastics.
Application Insights:
The construction industry was the largest application segment in 2015 and is expected to witness a CAGR of XX% from 2016 to 2030. The product is used as an emulsifier, rheology modifier, wetting agent, anti-settling agent and foaming agent in various construction applications such as concrete mixes for flooring & paving, coatings & sealants. It functions as a binder in adhesives that are used for the stabilization of soil or rock against erosion by water or wind. Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose acts as an anti-caking aid when mixed with cement hydration products thereby avoiding the formation of clumps which leads to improved mixing and less consumption of energy resources during hydration process.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific was the leading revenue contributor in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The region is anticipated to witness a CAGR of XX% from 2018 to 2030 owing to increasing demand for hygienic products coupled with rising pharmaceutical industry in India, China, Japan, South Korea and Taiwan.
China accounted for approximately 40% of Asia Pacific market share on account of rapid industrialization along with growing construction industry due to increasing urban population which requires high quality building materials that are free from contaminants & pollutants. This has ledto an increase in product consumption across these industries as it provides maximum strength & protection against moisture at minimal cost as comparedto other alternatives such as polyurethane elastomers or epoxy resins used by builders and architects for constructing residential buildings and infrastructure projects respectively.
North America emerged as the second-largest regional segment followed by Europe owing to presence of major manufacturers such ast Henkel AG.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose in food and beverage industry as a thickener, stabilizer, and emulsifier.
- Rising demand from pharmaceuticals and cosmetics industries for Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose as a binder, disintegrant, suspending agent, and viscosity modifier.
- Growing application of Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose in the production of paints, coatings, adhesives & sealants owing to its properties such as water resistance and non-toxicity.
- Increasing research & development activities by market players to develop new applications of Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose in various end-use industries
