[EIRI/EDPR/4395] J.C.: 2592INR, 2592US$
INTRODUCTION
Sulfamic acid is a chemical compound with the formula H3NSO3. Other chemical names given to the acid are amidosulfonic acid, amidosulfuric acid, aminosulfonic acid, and sulfamidic acid. This colourless, odourless, crystalline sand-like solid, water-soluble compound finds many applications. Sulphamic acid can be used for removing scales obtained from water during heating and cooling systems example : boilers, condensers, descaling toilets, heat exchangers, jackets and coils, removal of excess grout on tiles, light rust, copper corrosion, among others. It is dry, non-hygroscopic, non- volatile and stable solid.
Global Sulfamic Acid Market Synopsis:
China’s growing chemical industries and technological advancements in the end-use industries like the food & beverage industry as well as medicinal industries are anticipated to drive the revenue of regional market growth. In India, the market is in high demand as the use of the acid has found many places like in paper packaging, pharmaceutical companies, dyeing & pigmentation, plastic products etc. Thus, in the Asia-Pacific region China and India are having dominated global demand of Sulfamic acid in medium sized businesses.
However, due to its extremely corrosive nature , the market can get hampered in the forecast period. Sulfamic acid has the potential to make the person blind if it comes in contact with cornea of the eyes or can lead to chemical burns and heat burns if it comes in touch with the skin. It can even damage lungs of those who inhale much of the fumes while working with it.
Partnerships and collaborations amongst the top market participants is increasing amid the growing population and rising hygiene awareness. Along with, usage of this acid in dyeing and textile sector. Governments of different countries globally are making much effort to boost chemical production and develop the chemical industries so as to expand the sulfamic acid market.
In the Asia Pacific region, its market accounted for USD 142.9 million in 2021 with a healthy CAGR of 15% in the forecast period. This is mainly due to the increasing acceptance of low- cost cosmetics products among consumers and growing concerns about the sanitization and hygiene of water in the Asia-Pacific region.
Applications Insights Impacting The Growth of Sulfamic Acid Market :
During the pandemic, some companies suffered loss and fell down to debtors, others such as the pharmaceutical and chemical sectors, incurred profit and witnessed growth.Demand for cleaning supplies increased after people became hygiene conscious during pandemic.Thus, demand of sulfamic acid increased as it can be used in detergents, in toiletry products, pesticides and house cleaning products. Sulfamic acid possesses necessary low volatility, low toxicity, and water descaling qualities as compared to other popular mineral acids. In domestic applications, sulfamic acid is favoured over the hydrochloric acid due to inherent safety. Also, it has ability to quickly remove hardness deposits without producing any fumes and displeasing aromas. These many applications make the acid most desired and secure acid in various sectors.
The vital factors driving the growth of this market share includes high demand in the industrial applications and increasing demand for personal care products these days. The personal care industry is an engaging and rising market with quite promising future as the customer’s choices shifts to low- cost market products if the price of the ongoing products rise high. Thus, pushing the market of sulfamic acid upwards.
The Sulfamic acid has 3 forms in which they are available in the global market. These being its crystal form, powder form and liquid form. Powder form of sulfamic acid found its application in domestic zone during pandemic thus dominated the market in 2020. Even the crystal form is anticipated to grow in future and find applications in industrial sectors like in textile, electronics and water treatment industries. However, the powder segment, is sure to cite the fastest and healthy CAGR of 15.0% during the forecast period 2022 – 31. And the liquid type sub-segment is expected to rise at a CAGR of 3.7% during the projected time frame. This is because liquid type sulfamic acid is an effective inhibitor, hence is widely used for maintenance and cleaning of water systems.
Future Forecast :
The global sulfamic acid market is projected to cross the valuation of USD 237.6 million by the year 2031, further expanding at a steady CAGR of 15.3%during the forecast period 2022 - 31. For the year 2020–2027 market was valued at USD 375 million in 2021.
Herbicides, textile softener products, fire agents, colouring of anodized aluminium, complex masking agents, leather dying processes, chlorine stabilizers in swimming pools, curing agents used in plastic industries are all fuelling the demand further. Also, the rise of its usage in agriculture sector is a key factor that adds to the growth of its market share revenue for the forecast period of 2021 – 31.
Seven key regions were sulfamic acid market is expected to grow fastest are North & Latin American , Western & Eastern America, Middle East & Africa and Japan. Indian companies are adopting new unparalleled strategies to bring advance services and products to emerge as a leading market for sulfamic acid production in future.
