Market Overview:
The global methyl cellulose 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 methyl cellulose from various applications such as construction material, cosmetic & personal care, paints & coatings, and pharmaceuticals. In addition, the growing awareness about the benefits of methyl cellulose is also contributing to its growth in the market.
Product Definition:
A polymer derived from cellulose, typically used as a thickener or emulsifier.
Hydroxyethyl Methyl Cellulose:
Hydroxyethyl methyl cellulose (HEMC) is a type of cellulose, derived from plant materials, which has been processed to remove the majority of the starch. The end product consists of an almost pure form of Cellulose with very little or no starch and other ingredients. It is produced by chemical modification at high temperature and pressure in order to obtain maximum yield with minimum waste material.
Hydroxybutyl Methyl Cellulose:
Hydroxybutyl methyl cellulose (HBM) is a type of cell wall material found in some bacteria and plants. Cellulose, the main component of plant cell walls, is extracted from various plants and used by microorganisms to form fibers. HBM has similar properties to cellulose; it can be used as an alternative or supplementary source for manufacturing fiber or film composites.
Application Insights:
The global methyl cellulose market is segmented by application into construction material, cosmetic and personal care, paints and coatings, pharmaceuticals, food additives and processing aids. The construction material segment dominated the overall industry in terms of revenue share at over 40% in 2017. This high share is attributable to the rising demand for ready-made houses across the globe. Rapid urbanization coupled with increasing disposable income levels has led to an increase in house building activities across various regions of the world including North America and Europe Pacific which further propels product demand globally.
Methyl cellulose acts as a filler in paints & coatings due to its viscosity which helps improve adhesion between paint film or coating layer & substrate thereby preventing flaking or peeling off of paint films or coatings when exposed to environmental conditions such as temperature changes & moisture content fluctuations etc.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing region with a CAGR of XX% from 2018 to 2030 owing to increasing demand for cellulose in paints and coatings, pharmaceuticals, and construction applications. The presence of numerous raw material suppliers coupled with low manufacturing costs in this region is anticipated to boost regional market growth over the forecast period.
The Asia Pacific was followed by Europe which accounted for 24% of global market share in terms of volume consumed in 2017 on account high consumption levels associated paints & coatings industry coupled wood packaging sector growth across major economies including Germany, U.K.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from food and beverage industry for thickening and stabilizing agents
- Rising demand for methyl cellulose in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics industries
- Growing application of methyl cellulose in oil drilling industry
- Increasing use of methyl cellulose as a binder in various industrial applications
- Technological advancements that have led to the development of new products with better properties
