India Acrylic Acid Market Analysis: Plant Capacity, Production, Operating Efficiency, Process, Demand & Supply, Type, Application, End Use, Distribution Channel, Region, Competition, Trade, Customer & Price Intelligence Market Analysis, 2015 - 2030


India acrylic acid demand stood at 53.55 Thousand Tonnes in FY2021 and is forecast to reach 247.48 Thousand Tonnes by FY2030, growing at a healthy CAGR of 18.54% until FY2030. Increasing the use of Acrylic Acid in manufacturing polyacrylates in thickeners, dispersants, and rheology controllers and its usage in coating and adhesives would spur the demand for Acrylic Acid in India. Due to the current slowdown faced by the Indian economy, the government is concentrating its efforts to revive the economy by taking some initiatives such as promotion of small and medium scale polymer processing industry near polymer manufacturing units which would further contribute to the growth of the Acrylic Acid demand in the country. The slowdown in the plastic sector due to the ban on “single-use-plastic” and massive influx of the capacities in the global market are the major restraining factors for the domestic Acrylic acid market. However, the Acrylic Acid demand is anticipated to recover in the next couple of quarters due to the restrictions, laid on the use of VOCs (volatile organic compounds, e.g., Acetone) in paints, etc. which has forced the paint producers to shift from solvent-based to water-based paints, in which, acrylic acid is a crucial component. Increasing import of Acrylic Acid in the country coupled with increasing demand for Acrylic Acid in plastics, Super Absorbent Polymers (SAPs), surface coatings, adhesives & sealants, textile, plastic additives, diapers & training pants, adult incontinence, etc. Additionally, demand for Acrylic Acid is fueled by its higher usage in diaper application segments, owing to its ability to absorb and retain water. The use of Acrylic Acid in surface coatings is also gaining popularity and accounted for the largest market share of acrylic acid. These factors would contribute to the growth of the Acrylic Acid demand in the country.

However, a sudden outbreak of novel coronavirus hard hit the country’s Acrylic Acid sector as several Indian ports had to declare force majeure in compliance with the government’s lockdown measure in the country’s battle against COVID-19. Acrylic Acid supplies remained tight throughout the final quarter of 2020 as the Indian market is dependent on exports from other countries.
