Propylene Glycol Alginate Market Overview
Propylene Glycol Alginate Market size is expected to reach nearly US$ 18.96 Bn by 2030 with a CAGR of 3.8% during the forecast period (2021-2030). Alginic acid is a naturally occurring polymer produced by bacteria and other microorganisms. It's commonly found in pharmaceuticals, foods, and cosmetics. Being a colorless, clear liquid that is miscible with water and organic solvents, it is widely used in jams, jellies, ice creams, salad dressings, dairy products, and processed foods. With an increase in the use of thickeners and sizing agents in the food and beverage industry, the market for propylene glycol alginate is expected to expand rapidly.
Propylene glycol serves as a solvent, preservative, emulsifier, and coolant, among others. It is also used to make binders, fragrance enhancers, and moisture-retaining agents. The surge in pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and personal care industries in top market regions such as North America has increased demand for propylene glycol in the region. However, agriculturally dependent economies in the Asia Pacific market, including India, China, and Indonesia, have increased the use of propylene glycol as a defoaming agent in pesticides.
Key Players
Some of the prominent players in the global propylene glycol alginate market are Universal Preserv-A-Chem Incorporated (U.K), Kikkoman Corporation (Japan), KIMICA Corporation (Japan), Fuji Kasei Co. Ltd (Japan), IRO Alginate Industry Co., Ltd (China)., Qingdao Bright Moon Seaweed Group Co.,Ltd (China), and Rizhao Jiejing Group Co., Ltd (China) among others.
