This can aid in satisfying the rising need for eco-friendly solutions across a variety of industries, including construction, automotive, and aerospace, thus aiding the bio acrylic acid market.

Global Acrylic Acid Market Share by Region

The Asia Pacific is the largest regional market for acrylic acid, led by China which represents the fastest-growing market in the region. China offers low production costs and an abundant supply availability to other regional markets. The market for acrylic acid in the Asia Pacific region is being driven by the growth in industries like construction, personal care products, and paints (coating), which use acrylic acid and its derivatives in their products. The region is also a major exporter of acrylic acid, with the excess supply being exported to regions like the Middle East and Africa, Europe, and Latin America to meet the rising demand from industries like acrylate esters and consumer packaged goods.

The demand for acrylic acid is being significantly driven by rising sectors like construction, superabsorbent polymers, and automobile industries, particularly in emerging economies like China, India, and Brazil. The increasing per capita consumption, the growing penetration rate of diapers, and the rising disposable incomes in India, China, and other Asian countries are further enabling the growth of the acrylic acid global market. An expected increase in the demand for acrylic acid from the surface coatings industry in the Asia Pacific and the seasonal demand from the construction industry in North America and Europe will continue to drive the market of acrylic acid.

Market Segmentation

Acrylic acid is also known by different names like propene acid, vinyl formic acid, or 2-proenoic acid. It is a clear, corrosive, colourless, and combustible liquid that has a pungent or unpleasantly bitter smell. Acrylic acid is widely used as an absorbent in various products. Due to its highly reactive nature, it reacts with alcohol to form acrylates, which are used in a variety of polymers, which find extensive applications in hygiene products.
