Abstracts

The Global Surfactants market is projected to expand at a CAGR of 4.96% over the forecast period of 2017 - 2023. Surfactants are materials that lower the surface tension ( or interfacial tension) between two liquids or between a liquid and a solid. They play an important role as cleaning, wetting, dispersing, emulsifying, foaming, and anti-foaming agents in many practical applications and products, including paints, emulsions adhesives, inks, biocides, shampoos, detergents, insecticides and etc. Rising demand for personal care products on account of rapid urbanization is boosting the demand for surfactants in the personal care industry. In the current crop production environment, the need to achieve maximum economic performance from each input is greater than ever. Growing population across the globe is demanding high-production of agricultural products. The global population has increased from 7.358 billion in 2015 to 7.53 billion in 2017 (source: The World Bank Group). As a result of which, the surfactant technology is increasingly being utilized in making high-performance insecticides and pesticides. Surfactants are used to prepare crop care formulations that play a major role in increasing agricultural output to feed growing populations. The market is expected to grow at a fast pace over the forecast period owing to the increasing adoption of surfactants in a number of industries and key players opening surfactants plants in countries such as China, Saudi Arabia and etc. to increase their consumer base. In April 2017, Maydan Industry, Ahmad Kassim Al-Amoudi Group Co. Ltd and South Korean company SFC signed a joint venture to establish a manufacturing plant in PlasChem Park. However, fluctuating crude oil prices and environmental concerns regarding the use of synthetic surfactants can restrain the growth of market.
