Market Overview:
Microfibrillar Cellulose (MFC) is a type of cellulose that has been processed into very fine fibers. It is made by breaking down the cell walls of plant materials, such as wood, cotton or bamboo, into very small pieces. MFC can be used in a number of different applications including composites and packaging, pulp and paper production, rheology modifier and others. The global microfibrillar cellulose market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.5% from 2018 to 2030.
Product Definition:
Microfibrillar cellulose is a type of cellulose that has been processed into very small fibers. It is used in many different products, including foods, drugs, and cosmetics.
Acid Hydrolysis Method:
Acid hydrolysis method is used for the conversion of cellulose to micro-fibrillar cellulose. It is a chemical process that involves the hydrolysis (splitting) of cell walls in plant cells, thereby releasing cell contents such as lignin, cellulose fiber and hemicellulosic acid.
Enzymatic Hydrolysis Method:
The enzymatic hydrolysis method is used to obtain high purity microfibrillar cellulose. It is a chemical and enzymatic process to breakdown cell walls of bacteria, which are responsible for bacterial toxins. The enzyme used in this process is called proteinase K. This method helps in producing highly pure microfibrillar cellulose with less contamination level as compared to other processes such as acid or alkaline hydrolysis methods.
Application Insights:
Microfibrillar cellulose is used in composites and packaging as it acts as a binder, stiffener, and reinforcement agent. It is also used in the manufacturing of paper where it acts as an anti-fiber agent. The product has a wide application scope in various industries including food & beverages, medical & pharmaceuticals owing to its excellent rheological properties such as fluidity/viscosity control and suspension stabilization. Other key applications include textiles, construction materials (rheology modifier), oil&gas industry (lubricant additive) among others.
Rising demand for microfibrillar cellulose from several end-use industries on account of its high viscosity index coupled with excellent rheological properties are expected to drive the global market over the forecast period thereby contributing to industry growth during the study period.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing regional market over the forecast period. The growth of this region can be attributed to increasing demand from countries such as China, India, and Japan. Asia Pacific was followed by Europe in terms of revenue and is expected to grow at a lower rate over the forecast period owing to saturation in end-use industries such as composites and packaging.
The product demand in North America was valued at USD X million in 2016 on account of growing applications from various end-use industries including construction, automotive, marine & naval, consumer goods among others. The U.S.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from the food and beverage industry for MFC as a thickener, stabilizer, and emulsifier
- Rising demand for MFC in the pharmaceuticals industry as a tablet binder and disintegrant
- Growing use of MFC in personal care products as an absorbent and viscosity modifier
- Increasing application of MFC in composites and coatings industries to improve performance properties
- Technological advancements that enable production of high-quality MFC at low costs
