Increasing demand for cellulose ester-based coatings and paints from rapidly growing industries such as construction, automotive, and oil & gas is a key factor driving market revenue growth.
Market Size - USD 10.47 Billion in 2020, Market Growth - CAGR of 5.2%, Market Trends - Rising number of research activities to explore scope of product applications
The global cellulose esters market size is expected to reach USD 15.82 Billion in 2028, and register a CAGR of 5.2% during the forecast period. Market growth is expected to be driven by rapidly growing textile industry resulting in high demand and adoption of cellulose esters. In addition, growing demand for these esters from various end-use industries such as food and beverage, textile and apparel, cigarette filters, photographic films, printing inks, etc. is another major factor driving market growth. Cellulose esters are available in variety of types including cellulose acetate, cellulose acetate propionate, cellulose nitrate, and butyrate, among others.
These products can be made using synthetic as well as natural materials, and can be woven or unwoven in texture. Growing requirement for technologically advanced, environment-friendly, and chemical-free esters is among the major factors supporting growth of the global cellulose esters market.
Unfavorable government rules and regulations regarding consumption of chemicals during processing of esters, and fluctuating raw material costs are factors that could restrain market growth
