Cellulose Esters Market by Type (Cellulose Acetate, Cellulose Acetate Butyrate, Cellulose Acetate Propionate, Cellulose Nitrate), by Application (Coatings, Plasticizers, Cigarette Filters, Films & tapes, Inks), and Region - Global Forecast to 2023
“The increasing demand for cellulose esters from the Asia Pacific region and technological advancements in various applications is fueling the growth of the cellulose esters market across the globe.”
The cellulose esters market is projected to grow from 9.27 billion in 2018 to USD 12.43 billion by 2023, at a CAGR of 6.0% from 2018 to 2023. The growing use of cellulose esters in various applications, increasing demand for cellulose esters from the Asia Pacific region, and ongoing technological advancements in various applications are leading to the growth of the cellulose esters market across the globe. Moreover, the increasing demand for cellulose esters from major markets such as India and China is also fueling the growth of the cellulose esters market. However, the rising awareness among masses regarding the health risks posed by smoking is expected to hamper the growth of the cellulose esters market across the globe.
“Among types, the cellulose acetate segment is projected to lead the cellulose esters market from 2018 to 2023 in terms of both, value and volume.”
The cellulose acetate type segment is projected to lead the cellulose esters market during the forecast period in terms of both, value and volume. The growth of this segment of the market can be attributed to the wide applicability of cellulose acetate esters in various applications such as cigarette filters, coatings, plasticizers, and films & tapes as these esters offer excellent mechanical and physical properties.
“Among applications, the coatings segment is projected to lead the cellulose esters market from 2018 to 2023, in terms of value.”
The coatings application segment is projected to lead the cellulose esters market during the forecast period, in terms of value. The growth of this segment of the market can be attributed to the increased use of cellulose esters in coatings required by the automotive and oil & gas industries.
“In terms of value, the Asia Pacific region is projected to lead the cellulose esters market from 2018 to 2023.”
The Asia Pacific region is projected to lead the cellulose esters market during the forecast period, in terms of value. The growth of the Asia Pacific cellulose esters market can be attributed to the increased demand for cellulose esters from China, India, and the Southeast Asian countries. Factors such as a shift in the cigarette manufacturing base from developed to emerging economies and an increase in the number of cellulose ester applications are expected to drive the growth of the Asia Pacific cellulose esters market during the forecast period.
In the process of determining and verifying the sizes obtained for several segments and subsegments of the cellulose esters market through secondary research, extensive primary interviews have been conducted.
The breakdown of primary interviews has been given below:
