The global Acetic Anhydride industry report gives a comprehensive analysis of the industry, including key segments, trends, drivers, restraints, the competitive landscape, and other essential market aspects. The product's employment in a wide range of medications is primarily driving the market growth. The Asia Pacific is the highest category spender by region, driving the demand for the Acetic Anhydride industry.

Industry Definition and Segmentation

Acetic acid is converted into acetic anhydride, a colourless liquid, by chemical synthesis and dehydration. It is a colourless substance with a strong odour resembling that of acetic acid and is widely used in many commercial applications and has a strong fragrance. It has a variety of end uses in important sectors since it is one of the essential organic intermediates. The Acetic Anhydride industry report comprises segments by Application (Cellulose Acetate Flakes, Pharmaceuticals, TAED, Others) and region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, the Middle East, and Africa, and South America).

The Asia Pacific Region is Driving the Growth of the Industry

The Asia Pacific holds the largest share in the industry due to its growing industrialization. Countries like China and India are amongst the greatest producers in various sectors, including textiles, packaging, and medicines. As a result, the demand for acetic anhydride as a raw material in the area is rising. Additionally, the need for generic medications like aspirin is growing because of the region's different favourable measures boosting access to healthcare in various nations.

The industry is being aided by the employment of the product in the pharmaceutical sector. It is extensively employed in producing several medications, including aspirin and paracetamol. The following medicines are in high demand due to the rise in health problems, including pains, vomiting, and fever, which is furthering the market's expansion. The product is also a critical raw ingredient and finds application in the production of acetaminophen, cortisone, and theophylline, further boosting demand. In addition, the increased need for hormonal medications to treat different chronic illnesses, including cancer, hormonal disorders like allergic rhinitis, prostate problems, hypothyroidism, infertility, etc., are likely to increase demand.

Best Procurement Practices

The global Acetic Anhydride industry report by Procurement Resource gives an in-depth analysis of the best buying practices followed by major global Acetic Anhydride regions across the globe, such as engagement models, contract terms, and buyer and supplier negotiation levers, among others.

Category Management Studies

Ketene is used to convert glacial acetic acid into acetic anhydride. Acetic acid is heated to a high temperature and allowed to evaporate before being added with a catalyst to a cracking furnace that works under a vacuum to create ketene and water. To prevent the reaction from reversing, the reaction mixture is immediately cooled. The gases are then sent through two absorption towers, which are washed by acetic acid/acetic anhydride of varied concentrations before being separated from the condensed dilute acetic acid. The second absorption tower receives the addition of glacial acetic acid. Acetic anhydride is created when ketene and acetic acid combine. The gases are further cleansed in the washing towers that come next before being discharged into the atmosphere. Crude acetic anhydride is distilled and recovered as the bottom product in a distillation column. Acetic acid, the main output, is recycled back into the process.

Other Applications of the Product, Further Bolstering the Procurement of Acetic Anhydride

The industry is being aided by using cellulose acetate, a derivative of acetic anhydride in the packaging industry. Owing to its biodegradable qualities, cellulose acetate is increasingly used in place of petroleum-based products in the packaging sector, boosting the market's growth. Furthermore, the trend of antimicrobial packaging to prevent microbial growth is also on the rise due to the increased requirements and standards for packaging in the food and beverage sector to avoid food poisoning and maintain optimal quality. As a result of its flexibility and stability, cellulose acetate is increasingly in demand to create a stiff film, supporting the acetic anhydride industry's expansion. The widespread usage of cellulose due to the movement toward sustainable lifestyles, particularly among young people, and its advantageous qualities in the textile sector is propelling the industry forward. Also, the increased research and development (R&D) efforts to introduce cellulose fibre as a cotton replacement to suit the expanding textile industry demand are likely to create market opportunities.

The regional markets for the industry can be divided into North America, South America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and the Asia Pacific.
