The global adipic acid market size reached US$ 6.2 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 10.2 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate of (CAGR) of 5.53% during 2024-2032. The increasing utilization of adipic acid across the automotive and food and beverage (F&B) industries is majorly driving the market toward growth.

Adipic acid, or hexanedioic acid (CH2)4(COOH)2, is a slightly soluble, organic white crystalline compound that is commercially formulated by oxidizing the combination of cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone, also known as ketone alcohol oil (KA oil), with nitric acid. It can be further synthesized through a two-stage carbonylation reaction of butadiene, carbon monoxide (CO), and methanol, which further helps produce dimethyl adipate. Adipic acid is corrosive, highly flammable, stable, and an acidulant and exhibits various chemical and mechanical properties. Based on these characteristics, adipic acid is widely used in the manufacturing of diverse home furnishing products, including cushioning materials, bedding foam, furniture, and carpet underlays to improve the comfort and durability of the furniture. Apart from this, adipic acid finds extensive application in the production of nylon 66 and polyurethanes as a reactant to fabricate plasticizers, lubricant components, polyester polyols, and feedstocks, including benzene, ammonia, and cyclohexane.

Adipic Acid Market Trends:
The global adipic acid market growth can be attributed to the considerable expansion in the automotive sector and the increasing demand for premium lightweight vehicles. Adipic acid compounds are utilized in monomer, polyamide 6.6 pellets, polyamide, and nylon 66 formulations that are used to design glass-reinforced and plastic-based structural parts, including engine covers, airbag containers, and several interior and exterior automobile components, owing to their lightweight and temperature-resistant attributes. These components further reduce vehicle weight, improve fuel efficiency and mitigate carbon emissions. In line with this, the escalating consumption of ready-to-eat (RTE) processed edible meals and ready-to-drink (RTD) beverages has facilitated the widespread adoption of adipic acid in the food and beverage (F&B) sector as a leavening agent and an additive, which, in turn, is acting as another growth-inducing factor. Moreover, the rising environmental concerns have prompted governments of several countries to promote the uptake of sustainable approaches for the adipic acid formulation, which is favoring the market growth. In line with this, the introduction of bio-based adipic acid is acting as a major growth-inducing factor. Apart from this, the escalating usage of adipic acid as a difunctional crosslinking agent in paints and coatings and strategic collaborations amongst key players to employ the product in consumer electronic products are positively impacting the market growth.
