The global commercial industry that produces, distributes, and sells acetic anhydride, a crucial organic chemical that is mostly employed as an acetylating agent, is referred to as the acetic anhydride market. From the procurement of raw materials, such as acetic acid and chemical intermediates, to large-scale production, distribution, and end-use applications, this market covers the whole supply chain. Acetic anhydride is widely used in chemical synthesis, coatings, textiles, polymers, and medicines. The market for acetic anhydride is mostly driven by its wide range of uses in the chemical, textile, and pharmaceutical industries. It ensures consistent demand in the pharmaceutical industry by acting as a crucial reagent in the production of aspirin, antibiotics, and other active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). Significant contributions are also made by the textile and plastics industries, which use acetic anhydride to produce cellulose acetate fiber, photographic films, coatings, and adhesives. However, stringent regulations, hazardous handling, high production costs, raw material price volatility, and safer substitutes restrain growth in the acetic anhydride market.
The cellulose acetate segment dominated the market in 2024 and is projected to grow at a substantial CAGR during the forecast period.
Based on the application, the acetic anhydride market is divided into cellulose acetate, coating materials, plasticizers, dyes & pigments, medicine manufacturing, agrochemicals, flavors & fragrances, and others. Among these, the cellulose acetate segment dominated the market in 2024 and is projected to grow at a substantial CAGR during the forecast period. The widespread usage of cellulose acetate in the manufacturing of textiles, photographic films, and cigarette filters is the main cause of the cellulose acetate segment.
The pharmaceuticals segment accounted for the largest share in 2024 and is anticipated to grow at a remarkable CAGR during the forecast period.
Based on the end user, the acetic anhydride market is divided into chemicals, pharmaceuticals, paints & inks, textiles, agriculture, food & beverage, and others. Among these, the pharmaceuticals segment accounted for the largest share in 2024 and is anticipated to grow at a remarkable CAGR during the forecast period. The compound's widespread use in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and intermediates, which are crucial in the formulation and manufacturing of drugs, is the main reason for the pharmaceuticals segment.
Asia Pacific is expected to hold the majority share of the global acetic anhydride market during the forecast period.
