Market Overview:
Pyrocatechol is an organic compound with the chemical formula C6H4(OH)2. It is a white solid that is soluble in water and ethanol. Pyrocatechol occurs naturally as two enantiomers, cis- and trans-. The dominant form depends on the enantiomeric excess of the starting material. Pyrocatechol has a variety of applications, including as a precursor to other chemicals, for example vanillin, and as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals such as carbofuran. The global pyrocatechol market was valued at US$ XX Mn in 2017 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of XX% over 2018-2030 to reach US$XX Mn by 2030. The market growth can be attributed to factors such as increasing demand from end-use industries coupled with rising awareness about its benefits among consumers across different geographies. In terms of type, industrial grade pyrocatechol held majority share in 2017 and is anticipated to maintain its dominance during forecast period owing to growing demand from various end-use industries such as agrochemicals, flavors & fragrances etcetera . However medical grade pyrocatechols are projected exhibit highest growth rate over forecast period on account surging adoption for various medical applications across globe .Regionally Asia Pacific accounted for largest share followed by North America in global pyrocatechols market due high consumption base coupled with presence major manufacturers operating therein .
Product Definition:
Pyrocatechol (C 6 H 4 (OH) 2 ) is a white crystalline compound that is used in the manufacture of dyes and other chemicals. Pyrocatechol is also an intermediate in the synthesis of various pharmaceuticals.
Industrial Grade Pyrocatechol:
Industrial grade pyrocatechol is a transparent crystalline solid and has a slight odor. It is soluble in water, ethanol, ether and diethyl ether. Industrial grade pyrocatechol can be used as an intermediate for the production of paints & coatings, adhesives & sealants, plastics & polymers and rubber products.
Medical Grade Pyrocatechol:
Pyrocatechol is a type of medical-grade pyroelectric material. It has been used in making heaters and coolers for over 30 years. The product is available to buy from numerous suppliers, however it can only be used by healthcare professionals as an essential medicine ingredient.
Application Insights:
Carbofuran was the largest application segment in 2015 and is projected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. It is used as a pesticide additive owing to its insect-killing properties. The product has low toxicity towards humans and animals, which makes it suitable for human consumption as well as animal feed supplements.
The use of pyrocatechol in vanillin production accounted for 21% of global volume in 2015 and this trend is expected to continue over the next eight years with average annual growth rate of 5%. The key factor contributing towards high demand for vanillin production from synthetic vanilla producers is that it possesses better stability, higher boiling point, greater purity & yield than real vanilla extract does. This allows manufacturers produce more complex flavors using fewer raw materials thus driving demand further upsurge during forecast period.
Other applications include pharmaceuticals (excluding antibiotics), wood preservation chemicals (carmine) among others such as cosmetics ingredients.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific region dominated the global market in terms of revenue with a share of over 40.0% in 2017. The growth is majorly attributed to the increasing demand for fire-safe products and growing pharmaceutical industry, especially in China and India. In addition, rapid industrialization coupled with stringent regulations by various regulatory bodies such as REACH is expected to drive the regional market over the forecast period.
The Latin American regional market also accounted for a significant share owing to increased demand from end-use industries such as fragrance and flavors & fragrances along with medical applications including cancer treatment drugs like pyrocatechol based drugs called fluorouracil which are widely used across several cancers including breast cancer, liver cancer, bladder cancer among others). Moreover Pyrocat HD™ is an FDA approved product that has been specifically designed for use against rodents and insects making it an ideal solution for pest control applications across food storage facilities; breweries; grain silos; manufacturing units etc.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for catechol in various end-use industries such as pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and others is expected to drive the growth of the pyrocatechol market over the forecast period.
- Growing demand for phenolic resins owing to their properties such as heat and chemical resistance is anticipated to fuel the growth of pyrocatechol market.
- Rising application of catechols in dyeing & printing industry is projected to boost the demand for pyrocatechol during the forecast period.
- Growing investments by key players in R&D activities for developing new applications of pyrocatechol is expected to create new opportunities for this market over the next few years.
