Market Overview:
The global linear alkylate sulfonates market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for surfactants and detergents, personal care products, and other applications across the globe. Hard linear alkylate sulfonates are projected to be the fastest-growing type segment during the forecast period, owing to their superior properties such as high solubility, low foaming tendency, and good wetting ability. North America is estimated to account for a major share of the global linear alkylate sulfonates market in 2018 followed by Europe and Asia Pacific.
Product Definition:
Linear alkylate sulfonates are a family of synthetic detergents used in laundry detergents, dishwashing detergents, and other cleaning products. They are important because they provide good cleaning performance while being gentle on skin.
Hard Linear Alkylate Sulfonates:
Hard linear alkylate sulfonates are a group of chemicals used as detergents, dispersants, and defoamers. They are extensively applied in the oil & gas industry for drilling muds and other applications where water-based or synthetic lubricants cannot be used. The product is also widely utilized in various end-use industries such as automotive, construction equipment manufacturing industries owing to its superior cleaning properties.
Soft Linear Alkylate Sulfonates:
Soft linear alkylate sulfonates are a group of chemicals used as foaming agents in detergents, soaps, and textiles. They are also used as wetting agents for polyvinyl chloride pipes and cables. Soft linear alkylate sulfonates have the ability to form soft lumps which is usually passed through a sieve during processing. The product has high demand on account of its low price compared to other similar products available in the market.
Application Insights:
The global linear alkylate sulfonates market is segmented based on application into surfactant and detergent, personal care, food additives and processing aids among others. The other applications include pharmaceuticals, paints and coatings as well as lubricants among others. Detergent was the largest application segment in 2017 accounting for over 40% of the overall demand with increasing demand from industrial cleaning applications.
Personal care emerged as a prominent end-use industry with growing product consumption in cosmetics formulation to provide thickening properties to lipsticks along with high surface tension reduction capabilities that enhance product properties such as spreadability and viscosity control. In addition, they are also used extensively in hair conditioners where they act as emulsifiers along with conditioning agents that impart smooth hair texture after washing.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The region accounts for a major share of global population, which makes it a potential consumer market for personal care products as well as detergents. Rising disposable income levels coupled with increasing awareness regarding health & hygiene has resulted in increased product demand from consumers, thereby driving growth of the application sectors such as personal care and detergents.
The growing manufacturing sector along with government support aimed at promoting FDI flow into the country is likely to boost consumption of linear alkylate sulfonates in Asia Pacific leading to an estimated CAGR of XX% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030 ending note - this scenario may vary slightly due to other factors such as raw material availability & pricing fluctuations; economic conditions; etc.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from end-use industries such as personal care, detergents, and textiles
- Rising awareness about the benefits of using linear alkylate sulfonates over other surfactants
- Growing investments by key players in research and development to develop new products and applications
- Expansion of production capacities by key manufacturers to cater to the increasing demand
- Emergence of new applications for linear alkylate sulfonates in areas such as oilfield chemicals, agricultural chemicals, and pharmaceuticals
