Market Overview:
The global pharmaceutical grade cellulose ether market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for tablets, capsules, and emulsion and paste formulations from the pharmaceutical industry. In terms of type, the market is segmented into CMC (cellulose methacrylate), MC/HPMC (cellulose hydroxypropyl methylcellulose), and others. The others segment includes cellulose acetate phthalate, carboxymethyl cellulose sodium salt, and ethyl hydroxyethyl cellulose. Of these types, CMC held the largest share of the global pharmaceutical grade cellulose ether market in 2017 owing to its properties such as high viscosity and good film-forming ability that make it suitable for use in tablet coatings and capsule fillings.
Product Definition:
Cellulose ether is a type of carbohydrate that is used as a thickener and stabilizer in food and pharmaceutical products. It is produced from natural sources, such as wood pulp or cotton, and has been approved for use by the FDA. Cellulose ether can help to prevent product separation and spoilage, and it also provides a creamy texture to foods. It is important to use Pharmaceutical Grade Cellulose Ether in food products because it has been certified for human consumption.
CMC:
Cellulose ethers are a group of natural compounds extracted from plants and animals. Cellulose ethers have been widely used in pharmaceutical formulations to treat various diseases such as cancer, arthritis, asthma, etc. However, the growing demand for plant-based alternatives has led to an increase in R&D activities regarding the development of plant-based cellulose ethers that can be used as effective therapeutics with fewer side effects.
MC/HPMC:
Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCT) and High Purity Methylcellulose (HPMC) are two types of cellulose ethers that are used in pharmaceutical grade. They have a wide range of applications such as oral drug delivery, parenteral drug delivery, medical & surgical dressings, wound care products and others. The increasing demand for efficient dosage forms with lesser side effects is expected to propel the growth over the forecast period.
Application Insights:
Pharmaceutical grade cellulose ethers are used in the manufacturing of tablets, capsules, emulsions and pastes. The tablet segment held the largest share of over 50.0% in 2017 owing to its wide application scope including drug delivery systems for cancer treatment and diabetes management. Moreover, it is also used as a binder in making enteric-coated tablets which ensure that drugs remain stable until they reach the intestines and do not cause any irritation or inflammation in stomach due to rapid disintegration of other tablet formulations.
The capsule segment is expected to witness significant growth during the forecast period owing to its use as a dosage form for various drugs such as analgesics (painkillers), anti-diarrheals & antidiarrheal agents (loperamide), antibiotics (clavulanate potassium) and vitamins & minerals supplements among others.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing region over the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to rising healthcare expenditure, increasing disposable income, and growing awareness about preventive medicine in emerging countries such as China and India. Moreover, government initiatives for improving healthcare infrastructure are also anticipated to boost industry expansion over the coming years.
The market in North America is estimated to witness significant growth during the same period owing to high demand from end-use industries such as pharmaceuticals & biotechnology; nutraceuticals; cosmetics & personal care products; food & beverage products among others.
In Europe, cellulose ethers are primarily used in cosmetic applications due to stringent regulations regarding synthetic ingredient usage in cosmetics manufacturing industries There has been a shift towards natural ingredients for skin lightening agents.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for pharmaceutical grade cellulose ether from the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries for use in drug delivery systems, tablets, capsules and other formulations.
- Rising demand for cellulose ethers as excipients in the manufacture of solid dosage forms such as tablets and capsules due to their favorable physicochemical properties.
- Growing popularity of cellulose ethers as disintegrants owing to their ability to rapidly disperse in water and produce a smooth surface on tablets that facilitates swallowing by patients.
- Increasing research activities on novel applications of cellulose ethers in the development of advanced drug delivery systems and formulations. 5) Technological advancements that have led to the development of new grades of pharmaceutical grade cellulose ether with improved performance characteristics
