Summary

The global Acetic Anhydride demand stood at approximately 2100 thousand tonnes in 2022 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.34% during the forecast period until 2032. Recently, Laxmi Organic Industries Ltd commissioned an acetic anhydride plant in Mahad, India along with another plant for producing n-propyl acetate. This plant will have an annual production capacity of 18 thousand tonnes per annum of acetic anhydride once in operation.

Acetic anhydride, also known as ethanoic anhydride, is an organic compound with the chemical formula C4H6O3. This compound is synthesized by dehydration of acetic acid. This colorless liquid is used to manufacture various commodities such as drugs, plastics, dyes, perfumes, explosives, etc. It is widely employed in the manufacture of several medications, including aspirin and paracetamol. These medications are among the most widely used, and the rise in health problems including aches, nausea, and fever, among others, is driving up demand for them. Moreover, it is used as a raw ingredient in the production of other medicines as well including acetaminophen, cortisone, theophylline, etc. Other applications of acetic anhydride also include the production of cellulose acetate and its usage as an organic reagent for manufacturing other chemicals.



The growing demand for drugs across the globe is mainly driving the acetic anhydride market. Furthermore, the growing need for hormone medications to address a variety of chronic illnesses like cancer and hormonal disorders like infertility, allergic rhinitis, prostate issues, hypothyroidism, and others, also provides a push to the acetic anhydride market. The packaging industry is increasingly using cellulose acetate (a derivative of acetic anhydride) as a substitute for petroleum-based materials due to its biodegradable qualities, which further adds up to the market expansion. The size of the global Acetic Anhydride market in terms of volume is estimated to reach nearly 3200 thousand tonnes by 2032.

Based on region, Asia Pacific is dominating the global Acetic Anhydride market, followed by North America. In 2022, Asia Pacific held a market share approximately of 48% of the global Acetic Anhydride. Also, the demand for generic medications like aspirin is rising as a result of the region's favorable measures accelerating access to healthcare in various nations such as India and China which is anticipated to propel the acetic anhydride market in the upcoming years. In terms of production, the Asia Pacific region is again in the lead with China and India being the biggest stakeholders.


Based on the end-user industry, the global Acetic Anhydride market is segmented into Pharmaceutical, Industrial, Agrochemicals, and Nutrition. Among these, the pharmaceutical sector is in the lead and held more than 40% of the market share in 2022. Additionally, the Industrial sector is also a prominent consumer of the Acetic Anhydride market.
