Rapid spread of covid virus has been largely impacted almost every industry and it has also impacted the global chemical industry as well, which has caused a major loss to the acetic acid market as well. After the covid outburst in most of the part of globe, regulatory bodies worldwide imposed lockdown so that the spread of corona virus can be restrained restriction due to which the supply chain got restricted which restricted the import of raw material and affected the supply of raw materials for manufacturing processes which negatively impacted the market for acetic acid. Also, China being one of the largest manufacturers of chemicals also faced several losses, according to a report released by National Bureau of Statistics of China in April 2020, the chemical manufacturing in China slumped by around 20% while profits declined by 66%, as compared to year 2019. Also, several industries like paints & coating, plastic, textile and several other industries as the stores remained closed for temporary basis, and sales also decreased which has affected the market share for the acetic acid market. However, as the lockdown has been lifted up, and many of regulatory bodies are taking steps to overcome from the ill effects are likely to help this market to grow further.
The acetic acid market is witnessing tremendous growth during the forecast period 2022-2028. As the people across the globe are getting more aware about the environmental issues, and a great emphasis has been made on the eliminating carbon emission through road transportation, the demand for Electrical Vehicles (EVs) has been surged rapidly. Also, many of the regulatory bodies are promoting the use of EVs, according to a report released by the International Energy Agency (IEA), more than 3 million vehicles were registered in the year 2020. Thus, with growing demand of the EVs, production of EVs is also growing rapidly, which has created demand for acetic acid, since it is widely used in the paint and coating of these vehicles. Moreover, it is expected that, in coming years, as the EVs are getting widely popular many of the giant automotive manufacturers are also moving towards producing Electric Vehicles, which is expected to drive the market share for the acetic acid during the forecasted period.
In recent years, as the population is increasing at a rapid pace, and domestic income is growing at a rapid pace, there has been a great scope for the growth of construction industry. Also, in developing countries such as China, India, etc. as the globalization is taking place and urbanization is increasing at a drastic rate, the growth rate of construction has been also surged, which is likely to create the demand for the acetic acid as well. Since, acetic acid is used in many of the construction products, such as paints & coating, thinners, glues, etc. Also, in the last few years house renovation has been also increased, which is likely to create the demand for the paint & coating, and it ultimately creates an opportunity for the acetic acid market to grow further.
Acetic acid market is growing at a rapid pace, but still one of the major reasons which hinders the growth of this market is, the high level of acetic acid may cause adverse impact on health. Since, breathing vapors with high levels of acetic acid can cause irritation of eyes, nose and throat, cough, chest tightness, headache, fever and confusion. In serious cases damage to the airways, a fast heart rate and eye damage can occur. Also, People with breathing problems such as asthma may be more susceptible to the effects of inhaling acetic acid. This is because higher levels of acetic acid can cause irritation of airways leading to chest tightness, wheezing and breathlessness, thus certain health issues restraint the growth of acetic acid.
The key challenge which acetic acid market is facing is the ill effects of acetic acid on the environment, since n high concentrations it can be harmful to plants, animals and aquatic life. Thus, as the environmental awareness is increasing rapidly across the globe, the demand for the acetic acid is likely to decrease which creates a great challenge for the acetic acid market to overcome.
