Acrylic acid is an organic compound with tart or acrid smell characteristic. It is mainly used as a feedstock in the production of acrylate esters. Acrylate esters have a broad spectrum of application in plastic additives, textiles, sealants, adhesives, and surface coatings. Industries develop and implement commercialized processes for producing acrylic acid from petrochemicals. Manufacturers are using bio-based techniques to produce acrylic acid from renewable sources, such as, glycerol, and sugar, because of stringent regulations. Renewable feedstock shows cost competitive outcomes as compared to petrochemical routes.
Soaring demand for superabsorbent polymers and widespread adoption of acrylic-based products in emerging economies, such as Asia-Pacific, are the factors that drive the acrylic acid market. Stringent government regulations are imposed on the use of acrylic acid because of environmental concerns in regions such as North America and Europe, which acts as a major restraint for the growth of this market. Commercialization of bio-based acrylic acid and saturated demand for poly (methyl methacrylate) or PMMA resins in various industries is likely to present varied opportunities for the growth of this market. Hence, the producers of acrylic acid focus on R&D to find bio-based sources for the production of acrylic acid.
