What is Succinic Acid?
Succinic acid (butanedioic acid) is a dicarboxylic acid of chemical formula C 4 H 6 O 4. It may be synthesized by petrochemical synthesis by catalystically hydrogenating maleic anhydride or may be synthesized by bio-based fermentation by using renewable feedstocks like glucose, sugarcane, or corn. Succinic acid is a white crystalline powder which is moderately soluble in water. The compound has such properties as biodegradability, non-toxicity, thermal stability and versatile reactivity, which allows its conversion into a variety of useful derivatives. Succinic acid is also widely utilized as a platform chemical in the manufacture of biodegradable plastics (polybutylene succinate), resins, and coating, as well as solvents. It also has uses in food and beverage as an acidulant and flavoring agent, in pharmaceuticals as an intermediate and excipient, in personal care products, in agricultural chemicals and in other industrial uses such as surfactants, plasticizers and de-icing solutions because of its multifunctional, renewable and replacement of petroleum-derived chemicals.
What is Driving the Succinic Acid Market?
The growing demand of bio-based and sustainable chemicals facing the petroleum-based products has led to the growth of the succinic acid market due to the rising demand of the products. The rising biodegradable plastics industry, specifically polybutylene succinate (PBS), and polybutylene adipate terephthalate (PBAT) is greatly increasing the growth of the market with packaging and consumer goods makers alternative to eco-friendly packaging. Also, increasing usage of food and beverage industries as an acidulant, PH stabilizer, and antimicrobial agent are providing significant opportunities. Consumption is increasing at a fast rate due to increasing demand of pharmaceutical industries in succinic acid as an intermediate in drug synthesis and formulation. The use of natural and sustainable ingredients in the personal care and cosmetics market is influencing the use of these ingredients in skincare and haircare products. The increasing application of de-icing formulations in place of traditional salts as an environmentally friendly solution is creating new market opportunities. Bio-succinic acid is becoming more competitive due to changes in technological development in the bio-based fermentation processes that enhance the cost of production and sustainability factors. Moreover, the government policies supporting renewable chemicals, corporate sustainability obligations, widened usage in agricultural chemicals and animal feed additives, and amplified research and development investments in green chemistry are the major driving forces in market growth.
